Abstract:
Digital health and virtual care (DH/VC) interventions have been rapidly transforming healthcare systems, offering enormous potential to bridge gaps in healthcare access and deliver person-centred interventions to equity-deserving populations. Working in partnership with patients, caregivers and communities to meaningfully integrate lived experience perspectives into DH/VC interventions can help ensure that diverse needs are met. In this commentary, we propose a consolidated set of principles for co-designing equity-informed DH/VC interventions. We also identify how these principles can be leveraged through resources and opportunities offered by Healthcare Excellence Canada and others.
