Based on the results of data analysis, as many as 4 hypotheses were rejected while only three were accepted. The accepted hypotheses state that performance expectation and attitude, as well as the moderating effect of facilitating conditions, have an impact on the influence of social influence on telemedicine usage behavior. Meanwhile, the rejected hypotheses are those which state that there is a direct influence of effort expectancy, social influence, attitudes towards telemedicine usage behavior and moderating effects of facilitating conditions on the effect of performance expectancy and attitudes towards telemedicine usage behavior. As implications, telemedicine must be designed to offer greater benefits than conventional medical services, such as time savings and cost savings. Furthermore, despite the lack of a direct physical examination in telemedicine, the results of the diagnosis are expected to be accurate, resulting in the patient being more productive and healthy as a result of adopting telemedicine
