AbstractWith the rapid digital transformation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, older adults face many challenges related to digital health literacy (Kaihlanen et al., 2022). Although older adults living alone, in particular, are likely to experience digital health inequity, research on difficulties when they employ digital technology for self-management remains scant. This study aims to explore barriers and facilitators of self-management using digital technology in older adults living alone during the pandemic digital era.Keywords: digital divide, telemedicine, self care, chronic disease, aged
