Fusion42 · 18 August 2026 · Fusion42 review

Despite digital health's promise to improve equity, significant disparities persist in access among vulnerable groups in Europe and the US due to limited technology access, digital literacy, and noninclusive design. AI applications risk amplifying biases and regional mismatches, with equity often poorly integrated into regulation and development practices.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Digital Health.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must tackle equity in digital health as a market access issue, not just a nice-to-have goal. Prioritise inclusive design and data diversity now or risk losing trust and missing underserved customers.
