Abstract :
In Tunisia, the telemedicine was founded in the public hospitals since 1996. However, its application is still regarded as an experiment which is still in the first phases. The principal objective of this research in progress is to study the individual acceptance of telemedicine by the Tunisian doctors by proposing through a review of literature a research model analyzing the determinants of the individual acceptance of telemedicine.
