Development and Validation of a Questionnaire to Measure Digital Maturity of General Practitioner Practices: Web-Based Cross-Sectional Survey Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The digital transformation in health care requires valid instruments to assess the level of digitalization. Maturity models are widely used to measure the digital maturity level of institutions. To date, however, there is no standardized and empirically grounded measurement tool for general practices in outpatient care.

Objective

This study aimed to identify and validate the key dimensions of digital maturity in order to develop a questionnaire to measure the digital maturity of general practices. The development of a questionnaire was intended to advance research into maturity models in outpatient care and provide general practitioners (GPs) and policymakers with a tool for the digital transformation process.

Methods

A web-based cross-sectional survey stud
