Abstract

A gap exists in the extant literature on linking information technology governance vis-à-vis hospital performance. Specifically, this work offers insights to fill this gap by adopting the COBIT 5 framework and ISO 38500 standards in examining the relationship between IT governance principles and balanced scorecard (BSC) dimensions of hospital performance. The proposed study investigated the influence of IT governance on Tehran's hospitals' performance. Data were gathered and analyzed from fifty-three (53) questionnaires administered to Health Information Systems (HIS) professionals and IT managers. Results showed that all IT governance dimensions have a positive correlation with hospital performance and IT governance has a significant positive impact on Tehran's hospitals' performance.
