Germany's Digital Health Revolution: A Closer Look at Rheumatology

GLOBALTue Jan 07 2025
Healthcare in Germany is undergoing a digital transformation, especially in the field of rheumatology. As the number of patients grows and resources become scarcer, doctors are adopting digital health technologies (DHTs). These tools, like video consultations and health apps, are changing the game in patient treatment. But to really understand their impact, we need a wider perspective. Researchers advise looking at how various technologies work together and how people respond to them. This way, both doctors and patients can benefit from the digital shift. Think of it like a garden. As more people use digital tools for healthcare, we need to know which ones work best. It's like choosing the right gardening tools for a great harvest. Understanding patient and doctor preferences can shape the future of healthcare. After all, everyone wants the best care, don't they?
