Abstract

The increasing importance of Digital Health Platforms (DHPs) neces-
sitates the development of a systematic approach to their categorisation and eval-
uation in order to optimise the integration of DHPs into the healthcare system.
The paper develops a taxonomy for DHPs comprising 19 dimensions along the
four meta-charecteristics Legal and Economic Aspects, Technology and Stand-
ards. By applying the taxonomy to the Apple Health platform, we demonstrate
its practicability and potential to identify platform-specific characteristics, which
can help with strategic positioning within the healthcare sector. The taxonomy
also helps managers and developers to identify DHP’s characteristics and act ac-
cording to needs. Further research opportunities exist in adapting and extending
the taxonomy to account for evolving trends and innovations in the field.
