In the headlines: Physicians are not aware of the majority of health apps.
Physicians are asking for support in using digital health apps. That’s according to a recent FMH survey. The use of digital opportunities is certainly important and exciting for both physicians and the public. Yet, barely one in seven physicians report exploiting the current potential of digital healthcare. And among the Swiss population, one in five people are already thinking of exploiting this potential.
Over three years, the FMH conducted the “Digital Trends Survey” to learn more about the diffusion of digital applications among the population and physicians in the ambulatory sector and to gather their opinions about their use.
An online survey was conducted for the third time in 2022, among 487 physicians and 2002 Swiss residents.
