Abstract
Telemedicine is an emerging option to improve patients’ medical outcomes and overcome health disparities. The technology is a cost-effective alternative to in-person medical treatments and can supplement medical care to alleviate stress on the medical infrastructure in the upcoming decade. This study uses survey methods to investigate the patient population’s intention to use telemedicine and assess the influence of different variables on telemedicine usage choices. Findings show that loss of income, trust in physicians, and time lost reduce intention to use telemedicine. The results carry implications for the healthcare industry, lawmakers, social workers, community activists, and family caregivers who bear the burden of helping loved ones with everyday tasks.
