Digital Health Literacy:
Patients' computer literacy significantly impacts their ability to engage with healthcare technology. Lower health literacy and poor internet access are associated with lower technological comfort and a higher need for assistance with online tasks. While access to technology is generally not a barrier, the capability to use it effectively is. Enhancing digital health literacy through tailored education and leveraging emerging technologies can improve patient engagement and health outcomes.
