Enhancing user support, particularly for vulnerable groups, and strengthening system stability, financial security, and interoperability through stakeholder collaboration may further optimize patient-centered care delivery in digital health contexts.

Abstract

The service was generally perceived positively by patients and family members, who appreciated its efficiency and convenience. However, several practical challenges were identified. Enhancing user support, particularly for vulnerable groups, and strengthening system stability, financial security, and interoperability through stakeholder collaboration may further optimize patient-centered care delivery in digital health contexts.
