Danish Citizens' Expectations to the Use of eHealth.

Danish citizens' attitudes and expectations to eHealth is being investigated in this paper with the aim is to explore how the Danish citizens perceive eHealth. Data has been collected through a national survey with 1.058 respondents (80% participated by e-mail, 20% by telephone). We found that the majority of the Danish citizens had experience with use of eHealth and a positive view on eHealths impact on future healthcare. However, the citizens neither using nor trusting eHealth, belong to the socio-economic weak population with no or very little education suggesting a need for the designers and planners to revisit their patient empowerment strategies.
