  ABSTRACT: This paper reports a research work that examined the applicability of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) in explaining clients’ decisions to accept the Mobile Renewal Service (MRS) technology introduced by the National Health Insurance Scheme in Ghana. The model’s overall fit, explanatory power, and the individual causal links that it postulates were evaluated by examining the adoption and usage of the Mobile Renewal Service technology among clients in the Northern Region of Ghana. Results of the study suggested that Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was able to provide a reasonable depiction of clients’ adoption and usage of the Mobile Renewal Service. The study reports 0.762 R2 (with T statistics greater than 1.96 and P value less than 0.05) indicating that the independent variables, namely System Quality, Transaction Cost, Accessibility, Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness, all together explain about 76.2 percent changes in intention to use mobile renewal services. Accessibility and perceived ease of use are both capable of influencing perceived usefulness positively. It can be established that accessibility facilitates subscriber intention to use the mobile renewal service. The study also concludes that system quality is able to influence user’s desire to use the service. The findings in this regard suggest that the underlying variables explained the substantial variance in the subscribers’ intention to use mobile renewal services of the NHIS.
