#Equity in #digitalhealth tools is so reliant on different forms of data. Data on how people access #healthservices, how people engage with the #online world in general, data used to develop new #medical technologies, data used to measure meaningful #healthoutcomes in different population segments.
#Data is abundant in the world, yet very little data is of good enough #quality to be valuable. We need better tools that help distinguish what datasets contain low quality versus high quality data.
The root of the #digitaldeterminantsofhealth lies, in part, in non-health sectors, such as the #energy and #technology sectors. Any #inequities in these sectors directly impacts the ways digital determinants can manifest.
In terms of introducing technologies into our #healthsystem, we are at a cross-roads: do we choose to focus on just implementing the newest technologies or the technologies that produce the highest value for our health systems?
