Bridging the digital divide: mobile access to personal health records among patients with diabetes.
The authors examined personal health record (PHR) use through a computer-based Web browser or mobile device. They found that mobile-ready PHRs may increase access among patients facing a digital divide in computer use, disproportionately reaching racial/ethnic minorities and lower socioeconomic status patients. They recommend continued efforts to increase equitable access to PHRs among patients with chronic conditions.
