“…This study is consistent with a study conducted in Europe, which found that the availability of technology, access to the internet, and a lack of telemedicine training are the most signi cant factors in uencing healthcare provider perception [51]. Besides that, as found in a study conducted in Indonesia, study participants' lack of internet connectivity was a signi cant barrier to using telemedicine [41] telemedicine training intervention carried out among nursing staff in India demonstrates an effective method of increasing telemedicine awareness and adoption [52]. The pandemic has had a positive impact on the perception of physicians and other stakeholders toward telemedicine and the adoption of this new technology is changing due to the present conduction of COVID-19 [53].…”

Healthcare providers play a key role in the adoption and implementation of telemedicine to be effectiveness. Despite its benefits, such as increased access to care and reduced risk of infection transmission, there are concerns about its effectiveness and acceptance. The objective of the study was to assess health professionals' perceptions of telemedicine implementation and associated factors at government health facility during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was conducted among eight hundred forty-five study participants from December 2020 to February 2021. A pre-test was performed on 5% of the total sample size, and the quality of the data was ensured by checking its completeness and consistency. Descriptive statistics and bivariable and multivariable logistic regression were used. The Variables with a P-value equal to or less than 0.25 in bivariable logistic regression were entered into a multivariable logistic regression, and model fitness was assessed. Result:The study revealed that 60.9% of professionals had a good perception toward telemedicine implementation, with an 87.2% response rate. Health professionals with IT support staff, ICT training , who use social media platforms regularly, and availability of computer or smartphone within/outside their health facilitywere 4.7, 3.3, 3.7, and 13.2 times more likely to have a positive association towards telemedicine implementation respectively. Conclusion: More than half of the health professionals had a good perception of telemedicine. Social media use, ICT training, computer accessibility, and the presence of IT support staff were all found to have positive associations with the telemedicine perception. In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, the government should take the initiative to strengthen opportunities for health professionals to learn and apply telemedicine in their medical practice by providing ICT training, IT infrastructure and support staff, improving computer access, and recommending health professionals' positive use of social media in the health facility.
