摘要：This study investigates the impact of digital literacy on the consumption of healthcare services among older adults in China and explores the underlying mechanisms involving social support and technology acceptance. Data from 1,107 valid questionnaires from adults aged 60 and above were analyzed. Digital literacy demonstrated a significant positive effect on the consumption of healthcare services among older adults (p < 0.01), encompassing both therapeutic and preventive services. Both formal and informal social support were identified as significant mediators in this relationship, with informal support exhibiting a stronger mediating effect. Enhancing digital literacy is a crucial strategy for promoting healthcare service utilisation among older adults in an increasingly digitalized society.
