Consumer trust in telemedicine in Indonesia

<b>Objectives:</b> Advances in technology have improved the lives of Indonesians. For example, the health sector. This is indicated by the emergence of telemedicine to facilitate health services. This study aims to test the effect of individual trust on the intention to use telemedicine applications. Therefore, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) are used as the basis for answering the questions posed by this research. <b>Methods:</b> Sampling was conducted online and involved 402 respondents who all came from the Indonesian island of Java. Validity, reliability, and hypothesis testing used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Smart-PLS 4 tools. <b>Result:</b> The results show that effort expectancy, performance expectancy, and social influence have a positive influence on individual belief; intention to use is influenced by individual belief and behavioral intentions. The results of the hypothesis testing show that behavioral intention has the greatest influence on intention to use with a t value of 31.315 and a β value of 0.801. <b>Conclusion:</b> The novelty of this study is that it includes individual belief variables that are influenced by variables from UTAUT, namely effort expectancy, performance expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions.

Abstract

<b>Objectives:</b> Advances in technology have improved the lives of Indonesians. For example, the health sector. This is indicated by the emergence of telemedicine to facilitate health services. This study aims to test the effect of individual trust on the intention to use telemedicine applications. Therefore, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) are used as the basis for answering the questions posed by this research. <b>Methods:</b> Sampling was conducted online and involved 402 respondents who all came from the Indonesian island of Java. Validity, reliability, and hypothesis testing used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Smart-PLS 4 tools. <b>Result:</b> The results show that effort expectancy, performance expectancy, and social influence have a positive influence on individual belief; intention to use is influenced by individual belief and behavioral intentions. The results of the hypothesis testing show that behavioral intention has the greatest influence on intention to use with a t value of 31.315 and a β value of 0.801. <b>Conclusion:</b> The novelty of this study is that it includes individual belief variables that are influenced by variables from UTAUT, namely effort expectancy, performance expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions.
