While ubiquitous healthcare (u-health) services were expected to propagate along with conventional healthcare services, recent progress indicated rather limited market acceptance. In this paper, we investigated the fundamental causes of why the consumer acceptance level of u-health services has been low. We draw upon innovation adoption theories to analyze the consumer readiness of the typical u-health services. The comparative analysis between
innovative u-health services and conventional services was performed using analytic hierarchy process (AHP).
Subsequently, policy and business implications including technological breakthrough insights were discussed based on the customer perspective comparative adoption analysis.
The propositions captured through this study provide useful insight to further studies on u-health services.
