There is broad agreement regarding fundamental digital health competencies that clinical health professionals should possess. However, there is still no clear way to observe and assess their application, during the actual work practices undertaken in clinical settings. The present paper tackles this competency-practice gap. It describes a novel health workforce research process to evolve competency statements into entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for using digital health and informatics in a clinical profession. It illustrates the use of the EPA-DH-CP framework in the context of physiotherapy. This framework offers a systematic approach for any clinical profession to develop EPAs that set out their expectation of how practitioners will demonstrate relevant digital health competencies. It can inform pre-clinical education and continuing professional development in digital health, and implementation of changes in scopes and standards of digital health clinical practice. It can support interprofessional evaluation of digital health EPAs and other EPAs.
