For example, Social Insurance Organization, one of the largest health insurance companies in Iran, announced that from April to the end of October 2022, 97% of prescriptions of insured patients of this company were issued electronically (Rahimimoghadam, 2022). However, equipping and maintaining physical IT infrastructure is a key challenge that hospitals face. Despite the high cost of this equipment to hospitals, it is largely unknown what role and mechanism these infrastructures can play in supporting digital transformation through integration with other IT capabilities. Addressing this unanswered question will lead to effective management of costly IT infrastructure for successful digital transformation.
