Description

Addressing the prevalence of chronic diseases among Indigenous populations remains a critical global challenge. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of digital health technologies (DHTs) among Indigenous patients and their healthcare providers, enabling remote chronic care delivery. To ensure culturally safe and patient-centred care through these digital channels, it is imperative that the use of DHTs fosters a collaborative patient-provider relationship. This research-in-progress paper incorporates the indigenous perspectives and draws upon the concepts of the working alliance from psychology and the information systems affordance theory to explore how the shared use of technology facilitates a collaborative patient-provider relationship (i.e., working alliance) in the context of managing type-2 diabetes among Indigenous Australian patients.
