ABSTRACT
The use of high-tech health among practitioners could support and improve the
delivery of healthcare service to patients. Nevertheless, in the sense of health
practitioners, literature on self-efficacy and its impact on health technology is
minimal. The study seeks to examine the self-efficacy of healthcare professionals in
Malaysia's use of high-tech healthcare. Four hundred health professionals
participated in this study through purposive sampling. The study area involved four
hospitals which represent four zones in peninsular Malaysia. Using a survey as the
information gathering instrument, a survey was performed. Until beginning the
research, permission was collected from the participants. For concise evaluation, data
was evaluated employing SPSS version 21 along with Pearson correlations and linear
regression. The results indicated that healthcare professionals’ self-efficacy lead to
positive uses of high-tech health. These findings can serve as input for healthcare
providers to observe and offer appropriate training in relation to use of high-tech
health technology. This review ends with a consideration of outcomes and suggestions
for study.
Key words: Computer self-efficacy, healthcare professionals, high tech health,
Malaysia.
