Objective:
Health-seeking behavior related to the utilization of health services has experienced exceptionally noteworthy changes after the COVID-19 pandemic. That is telemedicine, which has become more commonplace amid lockdowns. The pandemic status has ended today, but since telemedicine utilization has numerous benefits, the innovation must stay accessible. This systematic review aimed to describe telemedicine utilization and which factors could become enablers and barriers.
Design:
The literature search for the review was conducted in November 2024. The articles reviewed were published in 2019-2024 and selected from Science Direct, Springer, ProQuest, and EBSCOhost databases.
Results:
The articles were research articles and used qualitative methods. Based on search results, screening process, and review articles, we describe enabling factors and barriers of telemedicine utilization through users' (patients) and providers' (health practitioners) points of view. We also define infrastructures, such as smart city development, that contribute to the development of telemedicine.
Conclusions:
Future research into people's perception of telemedicine, developing telemedicine technology, and finding alternatives to getting electricity and internet connection with a low budget will promote telemedicine utilization.
