Analysis of the influencing factors and spatiotemporal evolution characteristics of telemedicine service supply: Empirical evidence from pilot cities in China
CONCLUSION: Medical institutions carry out telemedicine service programmes with a certain order of priority. Their decisions are often influenced by various factors such as price, out-of-pocket payment ratio and level and attribute of the healthcare organisation. The development of telemedicine may follow an inverted 'U' pattern with the level of regional economic development.
