The use of social media as a source of health information is increasing

The use of social media as a source of health information is increasing. For example, large teaching facilities often have a link on their website for additional information about a particular disease or procedure. However, Internet sites like blogs, content communities, and other social networking sites as a source of health information is not without its challenges. These challenges include privacy, security, reimbursement, and accessibility. In your response, address the following:

• How can inadequate or lack of access to communication technology (the digital divide) lead to care inequality in the emerging e-health model?
• Discuss at least two types of social media and give examples of how social media can be applied to e-health.
• Discuss the three challenges noted above and how they relate to the use of social media on the internet as a source of health information.
