Abstrakt: Germany's Digital Healthcare Act allows doctors to prescribe digital health applications (DiGAs) for reimbursement. DiGAs must demonstrate safety, data security, and a "positive impact on care" to be listed in the official directory. Previously, data for permanently listed DiGAs was analyzed. The work presented here evaluates additional data fields for the currently listed DiGAs (both provisionally and permanently included) and aims to assess the completeness, details and consistency of the information. The data for this analysis was scraped from the directory and evaluated to identify potential shortcomings in the information provided.
