Science of Patient Input (SPI) Survey on Digital Health Technologies and Patient Input

MDIC Science of Patient Input (SPI) designed a survey to collect insights regarding using Digital Health Technologies (DHT) for patients. The pandemic expedited and increased the use of digital health technologies, and this survey gathered the successes, challenges, and opportunities for adopting, using, and leveraging digital health technologies.

The survey consisted of various questions directed towards different stakeholders in the device ecosystem, this included: patients, providers, clinicians/investigators, hospital systems, manufacturers, and MedTech companies. Each shared their perspectives and inputs on using digital health technologies. This report summarizes the findings of the survey results, which frame the areas of interest and priorities of SPI’s developing Patient-Centered Digital Health Technologies. We are very excited to share these insights with you and we expect the findings to drive meaningful and actionable discussions on Digital Health Technologies (DHT) for patients everywhere.

The assessment of survey data shows that the future MDIC SPI initiatives can help:

  • Close the communication gap between patients and providers
  • Create valuable and useful insights by integrating data from all sources, including clinical data stored in EHR
  • Address Health Equity: best practices to ensure access to health for all communities, including the underserved
  • Create best practices to provide patients access to their data
  • Cybersecurity challenges with digital health data
