Background: Digital health technologies (DHTs) have expanded exponentially since the COVID-19 crisis and have prompted questions about their impact across all levels of health systems.

This study aims to explore enablers and constraints to the development, procurement and/or utilisation of responsible DHTs in health organisations.
