Abstract: The study explores factors influencing the adoption and sustained use of these services by seniors, highlighting the potential benefits of digital healthcare in managing chronic diseases, ensuring safety, and improving the quality of life. A case study approach was adopted to analyze various senior digital healthcare services, both domestic and international. The research examined factors such as user interface design, service reliability, device integration, and policy support. The study also identified barriers to service adoption, including the digital divide, high costs, and complex technologies. The study found that user-friendly interfaces, service reliability, integration with digital devices, and policy support are crucial for the successful adoption and expansion of senior digital healthcare services. It also highlighted that digital literacy, cost, and technology complexity are major barriers for seniors in using these services. The study suggests enhancing digital literacy education programs for seniors, expanding policy support to reduce costs, and developing more user-friendly technologies. It also recommends improving the integration of digital devices and fostering collaboration between public and private sectors to create more effective digital healthcare services for seniors.
