The corona pandemic actualized the digitalisation of group-based patient education. The aim of this study is to examine the experience health personnel have with the use of digital group-based patient education within the specialist health service. Increased knowledge of group leaders' experiences can provide a better basis for understanding the opportunities and limitations of the use of group-based patient education. Semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with seven group leaders. The data material has been analysed by systematic text condensation. The analysis resulted in three categories: 1) Interaction-limiting, 2) Multiple roles to master and 3) The digital as a valuable supplement. The study shows that group leaders experience digital group-based patient education as interaction-limiting, compared with physical education. Altered premises for interaction create a need for role adjustments for both group leader and educator. The group leaders consider digital courses to be a valuable supplement, as they can increase patients' and relatives' access to group-based patient education.
