What the paper says

Telemedicine is increasingly influencing the delivery of healthcare. This paper aimed to identify the variables that influence the intention of patients to use video consultations in the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. A simplified form of the technology acceptance model (TAM), modified for telemedicine was developed to identify variables associated with video consultation usage intention. The data needed to verify the functionality of the hypothesised model were obtained through a questionnaire survey. Using structural equation modelling, we created and verified a functional model that confirmed the statistical significance of the following factors related to Usage Intention: Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Trust, Technology Anxiety, Resistance to Use, Perceived Risk and Social Influence. The results highlight the areas that need to be addressed in the implementation of video consultations to achieve patient acceptance of this form of healthcare delivery.
