The case for inclusive co-creation in digital health innovation

Abstract

This piece critiques the exclusion of healthcare practitioners (HCPs) from the digital health innovation process. Drawing on “Sync fast and solve things—best practices for responsible digital health” by Landers et al., the editorial argues for the importance of inclusive co-creation, in which clinicians play an active role in developing digital health solutions. It emphasizes that without the meaningful involvement of HCPs, digital health tools risk being clinically irrelevant.
