Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: The telehealth service increased attention both during and after the Covid-19 outbreak. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of research in developing countries, including Pakistan. Hence, the objective of this study was to examine telehealth service quality dimensions to promote the telehealth behavior intention and sustainable growth of telehealth in Pakistan.
UNASSIGNED: This study employed a cross-sectional descriptive design. Data were collected from doctors who were delivering telehealth services through a well-designed questionnaire. To examine the hypothesis of the study, we employed the Smart PLS structural equation modeling program, namely version 0.4.
UNASSIGNED: The study findings indicate that medical service quality, affordability, information quality, waiting time, and safety have a positive impact on the intention to engage in telehealth behavior. Furthermore, the adoption of telehealth behavior has a significant favorable effect on the actual utilization of telehealth services, which in turn has a highly good impact on sustainable development.
UNASSIGNED: The study determined that telehealth services effectively decrease the amount of time and money spent on travel, while still offering convenient access to healthcare. Furthermore, telehealth has the potential to revolutionize payment methods, infrastructure, and staffing in the healthcare industry. Implementing a well-structured telehealth service model can yield beneficial results for a nation and its regulatory efforts in the modern age of technology.
摘要:
在新冠肺炎疫情爆发期间和之后,远程医疗服务都增加了人们的关注。然而,发展中国家缺乏研究,包括巴基斯坦。因此,这项研究的目的是检查远程医疗服务质量维度,以促进巴基斯坦远程医疗的远程医疗行为意图和可持续增长。
这项研究采用了横截面描述性设计。数据是通过精心设计的问卷从提供远程医疗服务的医生那里收集的。为了检验研究的假设,我们采用了智能PLS结构方程建模程序,即0.4版本。
研究结果表明,医疗服务质量,负担能力,信息质量,等待时间,和安全性对从事远程医疗行为的意图有积极影响。此外,采取远程医疗行为对远程医疗服务的实际利用具有显著的有利作用,这反过来又对可持续发展产生了很好的影响。
该研究确定,远程医疗服务有效地减少了花费在旅行上的时间和金钱,同时仍然提供方便的医疗保健。此外,远程医疗有可能彻底改变支付方式,基础设施,以及医疗保健行业的人员配备。在现代技术时代,实施结构良好的远程医疗服务模式可以为一个国家及其监管工作带来有益的结果。
