Patients Changing Agency in the Tension of digital and non-digital Health
Communication

Workshop of the collaborative Research Project Automated modelling of
hermeneutic Processes The use of Annotation in Social Research and the
Humanities for Analyses on Health (hermA)

4th & 5th February 2020, University of Hamburg, Edmund-Siemers-Allee 1 West,
Room 221

As the digitalisation of health systems is progressing, digital and
non-digital health communication are increasingly challenged, new
possibilities as well as pitfalls especially for patients arise. Digital
devices and infrastructures are built increasingly for the various processes
within the health system. Communication and the manners in which knowledge
is generated in the field of illness and health in the digital sphere change
as well as concepts of privacy and anonymity. An intensive discussion of the
appertaining norms and values has begun in this context. Therefore,
questions concerning the changing relationship between patients, health care
providers, and the technical infrastructure emerge. Regarding diagnosis and
treatment of illnesses, patients changing agency as their processual
capacity to act and to decide on their health is becoming an important
angle. A special focus lies on mental health care and the area of emotional
and mental support.

The workshop aims to differentiate the research area of digital and
non-digital health communication with a focus on patients changing agency,
asking after evaluations of the changing field of health. The workshop
therefore examines these perspectives in an interdisciplinary context and
brings them together focussing on the discussion of emerging phenomena and
research questions.
