Why Digital Accessibility is Critical to the Patient & Customer Experience

With the post-pandemic rise of the digital patient, the expectations for a seamless omnichannel customer experience continue to accelerate. Consumer market driven adoption of wearables, smartphone apps, and social media-based disease support groups have started to alter what patients expect from the health care industry. Given that many patients have comorbidities and disabilities, digital accessibility standards are critical for inclusivity and providing equal access to the digital content – whether it be clinical trial e-diaries, vaccination scheduling applications, digital health solutions and personalized drug delivery systems, or informational disease awareness websites. Explore the WHY, WHAT, and HOW digital accessibility is critical to the patient and customer experience:
