Measuring the impact of disability on telehealth self-efficacy in five Arab countries: a comparative study in Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries
The study highlights the need to enhance access to telehealth services by improving technological infrastructure, particularly in rural areas. Providing technical support, training, and awareness programs for individuals with disabilities can strengthen their confidence in using these services, especially in countries with lower self-efficacy, such as Libya and Syria.
