Providers Identify Barriers to mHealth Implementation in AYA Care

A 2026 qualitative study in J Med Internet Res interviewed 20 AYA oncology providers to examine facilitators and barriers to implementing mHealth psychosocial apps into routine care. Using the CFIR framework, researchers found facilitators such as co-design, patient alignment, strong evidence, and user-friendly design, and barriers including costs, heavy clinical workloads, and poor workflow integration.
Key Points
- 1Identify facilitators: co-design, patient alignment, strong evidence, and user-friendly mHealth app features.
- 2Highlight systemic barriers: costs, heavy workloads, and poor cross-team communication impede implementation.
- 3Recommend partnering with AYAs, families, and providers for co-design and clinical integration strategies.
Scoring Rationale
Addresses implementation gaps with actionable provider insights, but limited scope to AYA oncology and small sample size.
