ABSTRACT
Digital health interventions have become an essential component of every public health system since the COVID-19 pandemic. 'eSanjeevani OPD - Stay at Home OPD' is a telemedicine system that connects doctors and patients launched as part of the Ayushman Bharat project of the Indian government. This study analyses various factors affecting the intention to use eSanjeevani. A theoretical model integrating the health belief model and the theory of reasoned action was framed and empirically tested. Responses were collected using a survey questionnaire(n=248). A partial least square-structural equation modeling was used to analyze the linkages between the constructs. Perceived susceptibility and benefits were found to be the most contributing variables. Attitude has a significant mediating effect on the intention to use eSanjeevani. © 2023 IEEE.
