Abstract:

Inter-organizational information system (IOS) related networks have been studied from different disciplines, but no study which would combine the results has emerged. Our objective in this article is to create a framework which provides a tool for information systems researchers and managers to understand and analyze governance of complex IOS networks. The framework will be empirically substantiated by mapping how health care IOS networks may be governed by individual organizations, the network they form and the surrounding society
