Abstract
The study investigates the adoption of telemedicine in a public hospital in Paraguay in 2023, from the perspective of healthcare personnel. A quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional analysis was conducted through 23 interviews with healthcare staff who were selected based on their voluntary participation, excluding maintenance, administration, finance, and cleaning staff. An 11-question guide focused on the evaluation, implementation, usage, and economic, technological, and legal aspects of telemedicine was used. Key findings highlight the feasibility of telemedicine, its more frequent application in the private sector, and benefits such as ease of access, resource optimization, and time management. The security of medical information emerged as a paramount concern. The conclusion is that there is a positive acceptance of telemedicine among professionals, underscoring the need for institutional, governmental, and user support for its effective implementation.
