Background: Mobile health interventions that utilize artificial intelligence may provide way for underserved populations to engage with healthcare.
Purpose: Examine the policy considerations that must be deliberated when developing, regulating, implementing, and sustaining mHealth apps among historically underserved individuals.
Methods: Reproductive Justice was used to investigate policy considerations for those with criminal legal system supervision who engage with mHealth apps. Three policy considerations resulted: 1) improving the legislative and regulatory landscape of digital technology, 2) enhancing comprehensive data protection legislation, 3) heightening privacy protections.
Discussion: The need to bring awareness to policy protections on the local, institutional, state, federal, and global levels specific to mHealth apps among underserved groups with criminal legal supervision is required.
Conclusion: These emerging advances in technology serve as an avenue for direct healthcare services to collaborate with other professions and organizations to implement ethical interventions that respect human rights and improve reproductive health equity.
