Abstract
Globally, public mental health systems struggle with scarce resources while the demand for services is increasing (). Moreover, there are significant disparities in access to care (–) and widespread challenges with recruitment and retainment of clinicians (–). There is a growing need for more sustainable models of organizing and delivering services (). Digitalization is a strategy to reshape care models within current resource constraints (–). Existing literature indicates great promise for the integration of accessible digital tools in mental health, such as video consultations to deliver therapy (–) and mobile apps to support therapeutic interventions or monitor clinically relevant variables (–). The potential of digitalization extends to services targeting severe mental disorders, such as psychotic and bipolar disorders, but there is still a lack of knowledge concerning these patient populations (–). Findings from previous work suggest that no service users should be excluded from the target groups of digitalized care based on diagnosis alone (;). Insights gained from studying this population are often applicable to individuals with less severe conditions, making this group a valuable reference point for advancing digitalized mental health care overall.
