Abstract :
The objective of the current study is to examine whether university hospital administrators’ education level and age as well as the number of beds in the hospital have any impact on the information technologies that are currently in use. The findings of this study reveals that the most widely used information systems in the health-care industry includes automation software, office automation systems, and web design tools. However, it is concluded that some types of the information systems, including internet, intranet, extranet, functional information systems, management information systems, expert systems, decision support systems, and electronic data exchange systems, are underutilized as compared to automation software, office automation systems, and web design tools. It is also pointed out that health-care administrators’ education level and age as well as the number of beds in the hospitals do not have an impact on the information technologies used in the hospitals.
