Key Points Question Should electronic patient-reported outcome tools (ePROs), built for patients who are English proficient (EP), be implemented for Spanish-speaking patients with limited English proficiency (LEP), particularly in the context of oral cancer-directed therapies (OCDT)? Findings This qualitative study of 46 participants found that EP and LEP patients have different levels of acceptability of using technology and ePRO tools to manage their OCDT. EP patients felt generally positive about OCDT and were largely uninterested in managing their care with electronic management tools and ePROs, while LEP patients generally disliked OCDT and welcomed the use of electronic tools including ePRO reporting. Meaning These findings suggest that technology-based interventions built for EP patients may also be useful for LEP patients.
