Abstract

Abstract Objectives To identify and quantify public preferences for digital therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease treatment and to ascertain their willingness to pay for digital therapeutics. Methods Discrete choice experiments is conducted in Jiangsu, Anhui, and Shanxi, China. eight attributes is defined and used: medical devices operational steps, training methods, therapy locations, therapy frequency, therapy duration, cost, and monitoring locations. Stratified sampling was conducted separately in the eastern, central, and western parts of China. Individuals were recruited WenJuanXing, an online platform for survey research. The conditional logit model and mixed logit model estimated the stated preferences for attributes. Relative importance scores and willingness to pay estimates were calculated. Additionally, we conducted subgroup analyses based on four demographic characteristics of the public: sex, age, per family monthly income, and whether they are family members of Alzheimer's disease patients. Results A total of 315 residents completed the experiment (182 (57.46%) were female respondents). In general, ranked from the largest to smallest relative importance score, the significant attributes were cost (56.1%), therapy duration (19.5%), monitoring locations (13.5%), therapy frequency (8.34%), therapy location (6.97%), medical device (4.24%), operation steps (3.89%), and training method (2.10%). The results indicate that different attributes have varying degrees of influence on the public. At the same time, individuals with different demographic characteristics exhibit distinct preferences for different attributes. Conclusion The cost, convenience, and compliance of digital therapeutics are the main factors influencing the public's decision. The social care system for Alzheimer's disease patients requires further improvement in China. Different demographic groups have varying preferences for attributes, thus further research is required to delve deeper into specific populations like Alzheimer's disease caregivers.

Digital Therapeutics Discrete choice experiment Societal preference Willingness to pay Relative importance China Figures Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 1. Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, memory impairment, depression, and both behavioral and psychiatric abnormalities. A comprehensive study is needed to assess the prevalence and incidence of AD across China 1 . The study reported a combined AD prevalence of 3.48% in a cohort of 626,276 elderly individuals, with an incidence rate of 7.90 per 1,000 person-years. As the population ages, the incidence and prevalence of AD are increasing at an accelerated rate, highlighting the growing public health burden of this condition. In addition to pharmacological interventions, digital therapeutics (DTx) have emerged as a promising and increasingly adopted approach for managing AD. The DTx Alliance defines DTx as health intervention programs powered by high-quality software and grounded in evidence-based medicine 2 . DTx can be used to prevent, manage, and treat a wide range of diseases. Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of DTx in the management of AD and mild cognitive impairment associated with AD 3 – 5 . DTx encompasses a variety of non-invasive modalities, including visual and auditory techniques, consistent therapeutic interventions, reminiscence therapy, computerized cognitive training, semantic and phonological aids, wearable devices, and computer-assisted rehabilitation environments. These interventions are designed to enhance memory, cognitive function, and functional capabilities in individuals with AD, while also addressing motor symptoms 6 . DTx is generally classified as Class Ⅱ or Class Ⅲ medical devices by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in China. In addition, the Chinese government published lots of proposals to encourage the utilization of Internet Plus and other digital technologies in China 7 – 8 . Different populations have different preferences for different attributes of digital therapies. To quantify individuals’ preference, a discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted for digital therapies from the public's perspective. To measure the preference for each attribute level 9 , DCE simulates real-world decision-making processes by integrating relevant attribute levels into hypothetical scenarios, thereby enabling patients to make choices. It has been determined that the existing studies of DTx for AD are predominantly clinical in nature. J. R. Petrella et al. and Lixin Wang et al. investigated the effectiveness of Computer-assisted Cognitive Training (CCT) in the treatment of mild cognitive impairment and mild AD 10 – 11 . J. Oliveira et al explored the effects of Virtual Reality (VR) on AD based on clinical controlled trial 12 . Rossetto F et al tested the efficacy of digital-health home intervention for people within the AD continuum 13 . Kübra Nur Meneng et al investigate the effectiveness of exercise treatment via home-based TR in AD 14 . In the context of preference studies on digital therapies for AD, a study has been conducted to measure the preferences of dementia caregivers for digital life story work service interventions. Research has been conducted to assess the preferences of caregivers for dementia patients regarding digital life story interventions 15 . There are few studies on DTx preferences of individuals in China. Since individuals with AD often present with cognitive impairments, family care giving is indispensable. Hence, examining disease treatment preferences from public perspective can more accurately reflect the decision-making preferences of caregivers. A three-province discrete choice experiment was conducted in China to investigate individual preferences for DTx. 2. Method 2.1 Attributes and Identification Levels To select attributes with different levels for this study, we performed a structured literature search, using the keywords “Digital” “Mhealth” and “Discrete choice experiment” through Pubmed and CNKI. Research exploring the attributes of digital health important to the public, patients, and healthcare professionals was reviewed. These studies include individual investigations or systematic reviews. Finally, a preliminary identification of ten potential attributes was conducted, as follows: (1) medical device; (2) ease of use; (3) training methods; (4) therapy location; (5) therapy frequency; (6) therapy duration; (7) Annual treatment cost; (8) Usefulness; (9) monitoring method; (10) monitoring frequency. To discuss the reasonableness of attributes and levels from a general public perspective versus a researcher's perspective, A focus group comprising three participants was organized. The group deleted monitoring frequency and usefulness. At the same time, modifications were made to enhance ease of use and to optimize annual treatment costs. A total of eight preference attributes and their corresponding level settings for digital therapy have been ultimately identified. The attributes, levels, and literature sources are shown in Table 1. Table 1 Attributes and levels No Attributes Levels Attribute description Relevant articles (Year, Author) 1 Medical devices Mobile application(tablet、phone) Computer(based-web) Others(virtual reality、vrain-Machine Interface) Which medical device is preferred for therapy Benjamin Smith(2020) 16 ,Anuciya Rajendran 17 ,Mi Jin Park 18 2 Operation steps 3 steps or less 4~6 steps 7 steps or more How many operation steps can be accepted during treatment(Quantify ease of use as an operational step) Zhenzhen Xie(2023) 19 3 Training methods Conventional cognitive training Neuromodulation technology Sports training Which training methods is preferred Chinese Society of Neurology, Chinese Medical Association, Dementia and Cognitive Disorders Group 20 4 Therapy locations At home At hospital Which therapy location is preferred Laura O'Philbin(2021) 21 5 Therapy frequency 2 times a week 4 times a week 6 times a week Which therapy frequency is preferred Sherine El-Toukhy(2023) 22 ,Laura O'Philbin(2021) 21 6 Therapy duration 20 minutes or less 20~40 minutes 40~60 minutes 60 minutes or more Which therapy duration is preferred Shan Jin(2023) 23 ,Laura O'Philbin(2021) 21 7 The monthly cost of treatment ¥500 ¥2500 ¥12500 What is the most acceptable payment for digital therapy per month Shan Jin(2023),Sherine El-Toukhy(2023),Laura O'Philbin(2021) 8 Monitoring locations At home At hospital Which monitoring method is preferred Emil Fristed(2022) 24 2.2 Experimental design and questionnaire development Participants were asked to choose among different levels of attributes and select their preferred DTx. A total of five three-level factors, two two-level factors, and one four-level factor were identified in this study. These options, when combined in two-by-two groups to form a choice set, 15,116,544 (3×3×3×2×3×4×3×2) 2 choice sets could be formed. It is not feasible to include all of these choice sets in the choice test questionnaire. Therefore, to enhance the efficiency and precision of the study design, we constructed a D-efficient design using Ngene. In the final design, 36 choice sets were generated. The 36 choice sets were grouped into six blocks. Each block comprised six choice sets. Participants were randomly assigned to complete one version with six discrete choice experiment choice sets. Respondents were then asked to choose their preferred options. An example of a discrete choice experiment choice set is shown in Fig.1 The questionnaire presented to the respondents was divided into two sections: demographic characteristics and a series of discrete choice experiment choice sets. The inclusion criteria for participants are as follows: (1) Over the age of 18; (2)Normal mental state, no serious hearing and vision problems; (3) Can read the questionnaire independently and communicate normally in Chinese; (4) Voluntary participation in this study. 2.3 Survey and Data Collection Ethical approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Board of Nanjing Medical University, China. The sample size was calculated according to the rule of thumb formula proposed by Orme 25 : N>500c/(t × a), where N is the sample size; c is the largest number of levels for any attribute(c=4); t is the number of choice tasks(t=6) and a is the number of alternatives(a=2). Adhering to LANCSAR 26 and PEARMAIN D’s 27 recommendation, and taking into account the impact of invalid questionnaires and interaction effects, the target was set at 300 participants. The study selects Jiangsu, Anhui, and Shanxi from the eastern, central, and western regions for stratified sampling. The determination of investigation sites and participants was stratified by economic development level and incidence rate. Data was collected through anonymous online questionnaires using the platform WenjuanXing (www.wjx.cn). A dynamic QR code was employed for real-time tracking of the scanning volume, scanning time, scanning location, and scanning device. The survey’s backend settings ensured that the questionnaire was completed onsite, with each questionnaire submittable only once per device to prevent duplicate entries. The questionnaire was developed for this studyThe detailed contents of the six versions of the questionnaire are available in the attachment. 2.4 Statistical analysis 2.4.1 Utility equation DCE measures preferences based on random utility theory, which asserts that when decision maker i faces a choice, its preference for package j can be described by the utility value U ijt of the selected object. (1) U ijt represents fixed utility that is an observable part of the system. β ijt represents a parameter variable of the relevant preference coefficient. X represents the attribute variables of the standby scheme. Ɛ ijt represents an unobservable random part, The positive and negative values of β ijt are relative to the reference value. The larger the absolute value of β ijt is, the stronger the preference is relative to the reference value. In this study, conditional logit and mixed logit models were used to evaluate the model fit based on the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and the Log-Likelihood (LL) statistics. In the mixed logit model, the mean value represents the average effect of an attribute and the Standard Deviation(SD) reflects the heterogeneity in the effect of the attribute. 2.4.2 Willingness to pay and the relative importance of attributes To measure preferences more intuitively, the willingness to pay (WTP) was additionally estimated using the mixed logit model. The derivation of WTP was facilitated through the application of a mixed logit model. Within this framework, the cost increase percentage was incorporated as a continuous variable, while other attributes were considered dummy variables. The 'WTP' command within Stata was employed to model these relationships. Consequently, the WTP was expressed as a proportion of cost. To ascertain the precise WTP value, The average monthly income reported by respondents was utilized to calculate a specific monetary figure representing the WTP for the attributes under investigation. WTP space is expressed in RMB. The calculation formula is : WTP= (2) Furthermore, the methodology employed in this study incorporated the partial log-likelihood (LL) estimation technique, which quantifies the contribution of each attribute to the overall explanatory power of the maximum likelihood (ML) model. This approach is employed to evaluate the LL, thereby allowing us to determine the relative significance of the attributes associated with DTx 28 . 2.4.3 Subgroup analysis Subgroup analysis was performed using mixed logit models in different demographic groups, including sex (male vs. female), age groups defined by the median respondent age of 35 years as the cut-off (under the age of 35 vs. over 35 years old), Family monthly income (≥¥9000 vs. ¥9000<), and the family member have AD (Yes vs. No). The willingness to pay was also calculated for each subgroup. Seemingly unrelated regression estimation was applied to compare the regression coefficient between different subgroups. All analyses were performed using Stata 16.0 software ( Stata-Corp, TX, USA ). Statistical significance was defined as a two-sided p-value < 0.05. 3. Result 3.1 Demographic characteristics A total of 322 questionnaires were collected. After excluding incomplete questionnaires and invalid questionnaires, a total of 315 valid questionnaires were obtained, with an effective response rate of 97.8%. Among them, 42.54% were male and 57.46% were female. 57.07% of the respondents were younger than 35 years old. The respondents were mainly with a college education (56.19%), prefecture-level cities (87.93%), and family per capita monthly income (58.10%) above 9,000 RMB. 25.71% of the respondents said that their families had AD and the majority of the respondents said that they had a general understanding of AD (40.95%).The result is shown in Table 2.

The results of the conditional logit are presented in Table 3. Following the principles of regression model selection, models with lower AIC and BIC values are deemed more appropriate for the research context. These models offer enhanced accuracy and rationality in representing the research findings. The resulting goodness-of-fit results are summarized in Table 4.

Hence, the study utilized the mixed logit model to analyze the data. 3.2.2 Mixed Logit model of preferences and willingness to pay The results of the mixed logit model are presented in Table 5 and Figure 2. For the five attributes of therapy frequency, operation steps, training methods, therapy duration, and therapy location, the mean of their level is significant, especially therapy duration and therapy location. Although the mean of medical devices and monitoring locations are not significant, their SD are significant. It indicates that the public preference for these two attributes is polarized, and there is substantial heterogeneity in population preferences. According to the results of willingness to pay, neuromodulation technology and monitoring location at the hospital had the highest WTP. Compared with cognitive training and disease monitoring at home, the public is willing to pay 1464.61 RMB more for neuromodulation technology. If the WTP is negative, it means that the public needs to be compensated. For example, compared with mobile phones, if the public wants to replace mobile phones with computers for DTx, the public needs to be given -1848.94 RMB.

The results are shown in Table 7 ~10. 3.4.1 Sex Male express greater preference for computers than female(β 1 =-0.632 vs β 2 =-0.079; P for interaction <0.001). Male prefer sports training over conventional cognitive training(β 1 =0.121 vs β 2 =-0.128; P for interaction=0.014). In contrast, female prefer conventional cognitive training. Based on the results of the willingness-to-pay result, male and female both are willing to pay an extra 3404.14RMB and 1233.02 RMB if conventional cognitive training is replaced with neuromodulation technology.

Discussion This study measures public preferences for digital therapies based on a discrete choice experiment. The results revealed multidimensional characteristics of public preferences, including training methods, medical devices, therapy frequency, monitoring location, and so on. The result indicates that different attributes have varying degrees of influence on the public. At the same time, individuals with different demographic characteristics exhibit distinct preferences for different attributes. 4.1 Cost is the primary factor affecting public preferences for digital therapeutics in China. Cost is the most significant factor among the preferences of the public for digital therapies in the treatment of AD. This is may directly related to the ability to pay. Most digital therapies approved by NMPA for the treatment of AD are marketed as Class II medical devices. According to available data, a total of 121 digital therapy products were approved for registration from January 2019 to August 2024. The approved digital therapies are predominantly aimed at neurological and cognitive dysfunctions, as well as visual impairments, accounting for 76% of the total approved therapies 29 . According to relevant industry reports, the annual average cost of digital therapy in China ranges from 25,000 to 50,000 RMB. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the per capita disposable income for urban residents was 49,283 RMB, while for rural residents it was 20,133 RMB in 2022. The minimum annual expenditure on digital therapy significantly exceeds the average annual income of rural dwellers and accounts for approximately half of the disposable income of urban residents. Therefore, cost remains the primary factor influencing public preference for digital therapies. The high cost of treatment may prevent patients from receiving timely and effective treatment 31 . Although no digital therapy products have been integrated into the national health insurance scheme to date, some digital therapies have been included in local health insurance pilot programs in regions such as Hangzhou and Shanghai. It is anticipated that the public's willingness to pay for digital therapies will increase if digital therapies are integrated into the healthcare insurance system in the future. 4.2 Convenience and compliance are also significant for promoting the public's selection of digital therapies In addition to cost, factors such as therapy duration, monitoring location, therapy frequency, treatment location, medical devices, operational steps, and training methods are also significantly important. AD is an incurable condition that requires long-term treatment. The convenience of treatment and patient adherence are significant factors influencing patient choice and persistence in treatment 32-33 . These factors, including therapy duration, monitoring, treatment location, and operational steps, directly influence the convenience of treatment. Preferences for medical devices and training methodologies vary among different demographic groups, and these characteristics indirectly impact adherence to treatment. The social care system in China is not yet fully established; therefore, patients with AD primarily depend on family-based care. However, family care demands a significant amount of time and energy from family members in caring for patients. Due to regional disparities in the support systems for elderly individuals with cognitive impairments in China, the development of care service facilities remains inconsistent. The primary mode of long-term care for elderly patients with cognitive impairments remains family-based health services 34 . According to the research findings, home-based treatment modalities are also more favored by the public. For medical devices, the public prefer mobile device than computer and others. For training methods, the public shows a greater preference for traditional cognitive training over neuromodulation training and sports training. It strongly indicates that developers should focus on creating digital therapeutic solutions optimized for home-based deployment and mobile platform integration. Policy makers should consider providing educational and informational support and exploring how to support the development of home care services through medical insurance or other economic incentives. 4.3 Subgroup differences in the population influence the public's preferences for different attributes Subgroup analyses were stratified based on demographic characteristics, including sex, age, monthly household income, and the presence of AD among household members. In terms of sex differences, male tend to prefer sports training over conventional cognitive training, while women, in contrast, favor conventional cognitive training. Studies have shown that males exhibit superior performance in terms of attention-tracking speed and reaction time, which may predispose them to select sports training that demands these abilities 35 . In terms of age and family monthly income differences, it is noteworthy that respondents with a family monthly income above 9,000RMB or those over 35 years old prefer computers (based-web) and Others(virtual reality、Brain-Machine Interface for treatment. This is because younger individuals with higher incomes exhibit a higher degree of acceptance of DTx and benefit more readily from it 36 . Besides, older individuals have lower levels of trust in digital technology and encounter more challenges in operating electronic medical devices 37 . Due to differences in living environments and cognitive levels, individuals with higher incomes are more inclined to allocate additional time and financial resources toward maintaining their health 38 . Socioeconomic inequality is a key determinant of health disparities 39 . Whether the family member has AD or not, families of AD patients prefer 7 steps or more than 3 steps or less compared with non-families of AD patients. Additionally, families of AD patients are more inclined to opt for home-based treatment. Multiple studies have demonstrated that caregivers of AD patients experience a high level of burden 40-41 . Given that patients' needs vary across different stages 42 , families of AD patients are inclined to adopt more comprehensive care strategies. Consequently, they are more likely to select care plans with more steps to address the diverse needs of patients. 4.4 The limitation Limitation of this study is concentrated in urban areas and the participants is mainly young people. Besides, the study cannot fully reveal the differences in preferences among different populations. It is necessary to measure the preference in AD caregivers or patient in the future. 5. Conclusion This study quantified preferences for the effectiveness of DTx in the treatment of AD from the public perspective. The cost, convenience, and compliance of DTx are the main factors influencing the public's decision. Different demographic groups have varying preferences for attributes, thus further research is required to delve deeper into specific populations like AD caregivers. Despite digital therapies is still in the infancy and not yet included in China's medical insurance. They still hold significant potential with the era of rapid internet development. The social care system for AD patients requires further improvement in China. It is urgent to explore institutional innovations and strengthen policy guidance to accelerate the development and application of high-quality digital therapy products, as well as to better meet the growing healthcare needs of the population.

Introduction","content":"\u003cp\u003eAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, memory impairment, depression, and both behavioral and psychiatric abnormalities. A comprehensive study is needed to assess the prevalence and incidence of AD across China\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR1\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e1\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. The study reported a combined AD prevalence of 3.48% in a cohort of 626,276 elderly individuals, with an incidence rate of 7.90 per 1,000 person-years. As the population ages, the incidence and prevalence of AD are increasing at an accelerated rate, highlighting the growing public health burden of this condition.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition to pharmacological interventions, digital therapeutics (DTx) have emerged as a promising and increasingly adopted approach for managing AD. The DTx Alliance defines DTx as health intervention programs powered by high-quality software and grounded in evidence-based medicine\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR2\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. DTx can be used to prevent, manage, and treat a wide range of diseases. Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of DTx in the management of AD and mild cognitive impairment associated with AD\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan additionalcitationids=\"CR4\" citationid=\"CR3\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e3\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR5\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. DTx encompasses a variety of non-invasive modalities, including visual and auditory techniques, consistent therapeutic interventions, reminiscence therapy, computerized cognitive training, semantic and phonological aids, wearable devices, and computer-assisted rehabilitation environments. These interventions are designed to enhance memory, cognitive function, and functional capabilities in individuals with AD, while also addressing motor symptoms\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR6\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e6\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. DTx is generally classified as Class Ⅱ or Class Ⅲ medical devices by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in China. In addition, the Chinese government published lots of proposals to encourage the utilization of Internet Plus and other digital technologies in China\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR7\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e7\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR8\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e8\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. Different populations have different preferences for different attributes of digital therapies. To quantify individuals\u0026rsquo; preference, a discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted for digital therapies from the public's perspective. To measure the preference for each attribute level\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR9\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e9\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e, DCE simulates real-world decision-making processes by integrating relevant attribute levels into hypothetical scenarios, thereby enabling patients to make choices. It has been determined that the existing studies of DTx for AD are predominantly clinical in nature. J. R. Petrella et al. and Lixin Wang et al. investigated the effectiveness of Computer-assisted Cognitive Training (CCT) in the treatment of mild cognitive impairment and mild AD\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR10\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e10\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR11\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e11\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. J. Oliveira et al explored the effects of Virtual Reality (VR) on AD based on clinical controlled trial\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR12\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e12\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. Rossetto F et al tested the efficacy of digital-health home intervention for people within the AD continuum\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR13\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e13\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. K\u0026uuml;bra Nur Meneng et al investigate the effectiveness of exercise treatment via home-based TR in AD\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR14\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e14\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. In the context of preference studies on digital therapies for AD, a study has been conducted to measure the preferences of dementia caregivers for digital life story work service interventions. Research has been conducted to assess the preferences of caregivers for dementia patients regarding digital life story interventions\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan citationid=\"CR15\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e15\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/sup\u003e. There are few studies on DTx preferences of individuals in China. Since individuals with AD often present with cognitive impairments, family care giving is indispensable. Hence, examining disease treatment preferences from public perspective can more accurately reflect the decision-making preferences of caregivers. A three-province discrete choice experiment was conducted in China to investigate individual preferences for DTx.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"2.

logit model and the mixed logit model were employed to analyze the final data set and assess the goodness of fit.\u0026nbsp;The results of the conditional logit are presented in Table 3. Following the principles of regression model selection, models with lower AIC and BIC values are deemed more appropriate for the research context. These models offer enhanced accuracy and rationality in representing the research findings.

For the five attributes of therapy frequency, operation steps, training methods, therapy duration, and therapy location, the mean of their level is significant, especially therapy duration and therapy location.\u0026nbsp;Although the mean of medical devices and monitoring locations are not significant, their SD are significant. It indicates that the public preference for these two attributes is polarized, and there is substantial heterogeneity in population preferences.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the results of willingness to pay, neuromodulation technology and monitoring location at the hospital had the highest WTP. Compared with cognitive training and disease monitoring at home, the public is willing to pay 1464.61 RMB more for neuromodulation technology. If the WTP is negative, it means that the public needs to be compensated. For example, compared with mobile phones, if the public wants to replace mobile phones with computers for DTx, the public needs to be given -1848.94

Discussion","content":"\u003cp\u003eThis study measures public preferences for digital therapies based on a discrete choice experiment. The results revealed multidimensional characteristics of public preferences, including training methods, medical devices, therapy frequency, monitoring location, and so on. The result indicates that different attributes have varying degrees of influence on the public.

This is may directly related to the ability to pay. Most digital therapies approved by NMPA for the treatment of AD are marketed as Class II medical devices. According to available data, a total of 121 digital therapy products were approved for registration from January 2019 to August 2024. The approved digital therapies are predominantly aimed at neurological and cognitive dysfunctions, as well as visual impairments, accounting for 76% of the total approved therapies\u003csup\u003e29\u003c/sup\u003e.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to relevant industry reports, the annual average cost of digital therapy in China ranges from 25,000 to 50,000 RMB. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the per capita disposable income for urban residents was 49,283 RMB, while for rural residents it was 20,133 RMB in 2022. The minimum annual expenditure on digital therapy significantly exceeds the average annual income of rural dwellers and accounts for approximately half of the disposable income of urban residents. Therefore, cost remains the primary factor influencing public preference for digital therapies. The high cost of treatment may prevent patients from receiving timely and effective treatment\u003csup\u003e31\u003c/sup\u003e. Although no digital therapy products have been integrated into the national health insurance scheme to date, some digital therapies have been included in local health insurance pilot programs in regions such as Hangzhou and Shanghai. It is anticipated that the public\u0026apos;s willingness to pay for digital therapies will increase if digital therapies are integrated into the healthcare insurance system in the future.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e4.2 Convenience and compliance are also significant for promoting the public\u0026apos;s selection of digital therapies\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to cost, factors such as therapy duration, monitoring location, therapy frequency, treatment location, medical devices, operational steps, and training methods are also significantly important. AD is an incurable condition that requires long-term treatment. The convenience of treatment and patient adherence are significant factors influencing patient choice and persistence in treatment\u003csup\u003e32-33\u003c/sup\u003e. These factors, including therapy duration, monitoring, treatment location, and operational steps, directly influence the convenience of treatment. Preferences for medical devices and training methodologies vary among different demographic groups, and these characteristics indirectly impact adherence to treatment. The social care system in China is not yet fully established; therefore, patients with AD primarily depend on family-based care. However, family care demands a significant amount of time and energy from family members in caring for patients.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to regional disparities in the support systems for elderly individuals with cognitive impairments in China, the development of care service facilities remains inconsistent. The primary mode of long-term care for elderly patients with cognitive impairments remains family-based health services\u003csup\u003e34\u003c/sup\u003e. According to the research findings, home-based treatment modalities are also more favored by the public. For medical devices, the public prefer mobile device than computer\u0026nbsp;and others. For training methods, the public shows a greater preference for traditional cognitive training over neuromodulation training and sports training. It strongly indicates that developers should focus on creating digital therapeutic solutions optimized for home-based deployment and mobile platform integration. Policy makers should consider providing educational and informational support and exploring how to support the development of home care services through medical insurance or other economic incentives.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4.3 Subgroup differences in the population influence the public\u0026apos;s preferences for different attributes\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubgroup analyses were stratified based on demographic characteristics, including sex, age, monthly household income, and the presence of AD among household members. In terms of sex differences, male tend to prefer sports training over conventional cognitive training, while women, in contrast, favor conventional cognitive training.\u0026nbsp;Studies have shown that males exhibit superior performance in terms of attention-tracking speed and reaction time, which may predispose them to select sports training that demands these abilities\u003csup\u003e35\u003c/sup\u003e.\u0026nbsp;In terms of age and family monthly income differences, it is noteworthy that respondents with a family monthly income above 9,000RMB or those over 35 years old prefer computers (based-web) and Others(virtual reality、Brain-Machine Interface for treatment. This is because younger individuals with higher incomes exhibit a higher degree of acceptance of DTx and benefit more readily from it\u003csup\u003e36\u003c/sup\u003e. Besides, older individuals have lower levels of trust in digital technology and encounter more challenges in operating electronic medical devices\u003csup\u003e37\u003c/sup\u003e.

Stratified sampling was conducted separately in the eastern, central, and western parts of China. Individuals were recruited WenJuanXing, an online platform for survey research. The conditional logit model and mixed logit model estimated the stated preferences for attributes. Relative importance scores and willingness to pay estimates were calculated. Additionally, we conducted subgroup analyses based on four demographic characteristics of the public: sex, age, per family monthly income, and whether they are family members of Alzheimer's disease patients.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResults\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eA total of 315 residents completed the experiment (182 (57.46%) were female respondents). In general, ranked from the largest to smallest relative importance score, the significant attributes were cost (56.1%), therapy duration (19.5%), monitoring locations (13.5%), therapy frequency (8.34%), therapy location (6.97%), medical device (4.24%), operation steps (3.89%), and training method (2.10%). The results indicate that different attributes have varying degrees of influence on the public. At the same time, individuals with different demographic characteristics exhibit distinct preferences for different attributes.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConclusion\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe cost, convenience, and compliance of digital therapeutics are the main factors influencing the public's decision. The social care system for Alzheimer's disease patients requires further improvement in China. Different demographic groups have varying preferences for attributes, thus further research is required to delve deeper into specific populations like Alzheimer's disease caregivers.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Public Preferences for Digital Therapies in Alzheimer's Disease Treatment: A Discrete Choice Experiment in China","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2025-06-03 07:10:38","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-6551380/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"[email protected]","identity":"researchsquare","isNatureJournal":false,"hasQc":true,"allowDirectSubmit":true,"externalIdentity":"","sideBox":"","snPcode":"","submissionUrl":"/submission","title":"Research Square","twitterHandle":"researchsquare","acdcEnabled":true,"dfaEnabled":false,"editorialSystem":"","reportingPortfolio":"","inReviewEnabled":false,"inReviewRevisionsEnabled":true}}],"origin":"","ownerIdentity":"40135ea9-be68-408e-8fa4-01e9c8dc6624","owner":[],"postedDate":"June 3rd, 2025","published":true,"recentEditorialEvents":[],"rejectedJournal":[],"revision":"","amendment":"","status":"posted","subjectAreas":[],"tags":[],"updatedAt":"2025-07-31T12:08:58+00:00","versionOfRecord":[],"versionCreatedAt":"2025-06-03 07:10:38","video":"","vorDoi":"","vorDoiUrl":"","workflowStages":[]},"version":"v1","identity":"rs-6551380","journalConfig":"researchsquare"},"__N_SSP":true},"page":"/article/[identity]/[[...version]]","query":{"redirect":"/article/rs-6551380","identity":"rs-6551380","version":["v1"]},"buildId":"8U1c8b4HqxoKbykW_rLl7","isFallback":false,"isExperimentalCompile":false,"dynamicIds":[84888],"gssp":true,"scriptLoader":[]}
