Abstract

The importance of e-health to citizens, patients, health providers, governments, and other stakeholders is rapidly increasing. E-health services have a range of advantages. For instance, e-health may improve access to services, reduce costs, and improve self-management. E-health may allow previously underserved populations to gain access to services. Services utilizing apps, social media, or online video are rapidly gaining ground in most countries. In this special issue, we present a range of up-to-date studies from around the world, providing important insights into central topics relating to e-health services.
