Patients utilize DHTs to manage their personal health and well-being. This may include tracking health metrics, accessing mental health services, receiving reminders for medications, or monitoring chronic conditions through apps and wearable devices. DHTs should empower patients to take an active role in their healthcare. Young patients rely on caregivers to make healthcare decisions and are progressively empowered to manage their personal health as they age. 

Caregivers use DHTs to support in the healthcare management of their child or dependent. This may include monitoring vital signs, managing medication schedules, coordinating appointments, and communicating with healthcare providers, and more.

Clinicians and healthcare professionals (HCPs) use electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine platforms, remote monitoring tools, and other digital solutions to diagnose, treat, and follow up with patients, ensuring efficient and data-driven healthcare delivery. HCPs are at the center of DHT administration – identifying the appropriate tools and resources to support their patients. (Includes doctors, nurses, therapists, school and community-based professionals.)

Pharmaceutical and clinical research organizations leverage digital health technologies—such as data analytics platforms, remote trial monitoring systems, digital biomarkers, and electronic clinical trial management tools—to accelerate drug development, optimize clinical trials, and generate real-world evidence that drives innovative, data-driven therapeutic research and regulatory decisions (includes pharmaceutical companies and contract research organizations).
