Abstract :
Introduction: In an era defined by technological advances and the need to improve health care services, the effective management of health research and development collections is of great importance. This study aims to provide a model for managing the portfolio of health service research and development projects from the perspective of information technology. Research method: This study is applied in terms of purpose and has been done in three stages. In the first step, public indicators affecting the portfolio management of health service research and development projects based on information technology were identified through library surveys. In the next step, using the Delphi method, effective dimensions, components and basic indicators were extracted. Finally, in order to validate the model, through a questionnaire, the opinions of experts from research and development units in the field of health services were collected and analyzed with the structural equation model method. Findings: The final model of the research was obtained at both micro and macro levels in the form of 15 components with 70 indicators. Micro-level components, financial and intellectual capital management, technology management and research and development, strategic planning, quality management, have emerged as critical factors. At the macro level, political, cultural, economic, legal, institutional, information technology, health information technology and healthcare services have pivotal roles. Conclusion: Among the identified dimensions, technology management, financial management, intellectual capital management and strategic management have been the most important, respectively
