However, successful integration of telehealth services depends on acceptance by individuals with MS, which is influenced by their Technology Readiness Level. A 2-part questionnaire was administered: demographic information and the readiness level to use telehealth services based on the Technology Readiness Index (TRI 2.0) with 4 scales of optimism, innovativeness, insecurity, and discomfort. Data from 120 participants were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The mean readiness score was 3.266 (SD\u2009=\u20090.421,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u2009.01), optimism 3.633 (SD\u2009=\u20090.790,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u2009.01), and innovativeness 3.273 (SD\u2009=\u20090.699,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u2009.01), all significantly above the midpoint.
