englischAbout 40 million people in the German speaking area use the internet for healthcare reasons. They search, learn, exchange and evaluate. How does the world of medical symptoms, diagnoses, therapies and collective experiences in the internet look like?

A variety of new services and tools are developing online and patients use them, yet uncoordinated with the traditional medicare institutions. What has the global research on the e-patient discovered yet? Which forums, apps and tools are developing actually and how can they be connected with the existing structures of the healthcare systems, if at all?

This book gives a condensed overview of medicine in the internet and discusses its results in comparison to the German healthcare system. Nearly 2000 „e-patients“ were interviewed online on these trends. Their answers and overall drivers and inhibitors of these digital healthcare innovations are discussed in depth.
