Disparities in Digital Health Care Use in 2022

In this cross-sectional study of US adults from MHSVI most and least vulnerable counties, digital health care use varied by participant characteristics. Some traditionally underserved groups self-reported higher use of digital health care. Differing associations between individual-level characteristics and digital health care use by county-level social vulnerability reflect the importance of place-based disadvantage indicators. Eliminating digital health care use disparities is important as it represents a complementary avenue to access health care for underserved populations.
