Prescribing Experiences, Potentials, and Challenges of Digital Health Applications in the Field of Hormones and Metabolism: Cross-Sectional Survey Study of Health Care Providers in Germany
DiHA have not yet been fully integrated into standard health care. To improve prescribing, we recommend integrating DiHA into medical guidelines, ensuring proper reimbursement, and involving HCPs in the pricing and health-economic evaluation of DiHA. The recommendations outlined should be considered to maximize DiHA's potential and improve HCPs' acceptance, providing valuable insights for health policy to enhance the integration, reimbursement, and use of DiHA.
