Cross-sectional study on user requirements for developing a digital patient navigator app

These findings suggest that a patient navigator app could be a valuable tool for a broad range of patients, potentially complementing in-person patient navigators. To ensure broad usability and acceptance, future development should account for varying needs across patient subgroups-particularly in terms of personalization, language accessibility, and communication features.

Abstract

These findings suggest that a patient navigator app could be a valuable tool for a broad range of patients, potentially complementing in-person patient navigators. To ensure broad usability and acceptance, future development should account for varying needs across patient subgroups-particularly in terms of personalization, language accessibility, and communication features.
