Statutory health insurance companies in Germany have had to offer their policyholders their personal electronic patient record (EPR) since 1 January 2021. So far, only a little more than 470,000 electronic patient records have been created, despite the potential of about 83 million users.

Advances in IoT and other information technologies such as cloud and mobile computing have promoted the digitisation of products.

For years, or even decades, every facet of e-commerce has been discussed long and wide. But recently, the term ‘digital commerce’ or ‘d-commerce’ has been creeping into the conversation. Is this just a new, digitally inspired name for an old concept? Or should we take a closer look at the definition of digital commerce? Where do these types of commerce differ and how are they similar? And how do be benefit from this knowledge going forward? To answer these questions, let’s take a little dive into the world of e-commerce and d-commerce.
