Abstract (2. Language): 
The object of this study is to determine the variables which predict the intended use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) of health managers. The health managers working in public, private and university hospitals in Ankara compose the population of the study. The survey named “Information and Communication Technologies Acceptance and Use Intention” was applied by Koca and Kocak Usluel (2007) with the purpose of obtaining the data for study. 303 managers participated into the survey. One way analysis of variance (ANOVA) is applied for the analysis of the collected data within the scope of study, where multiple regression analysis is applied for unrelated (independent) samples. According to the findings of the study, the age, educational background, study area, foreign language level, institution where they are on duty, the use purpose of technology, used technologies, the duration of the use of technology, the acceptance and the use intention in compliance with the use of technology on daily basis differ between the managers. In addition, the variables, which represent the 61% of the variance belonging to the acceptance and the use intentions of the health managers, are perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, social factor, anxiety and voluntariness, in order of related priorities.
