Background: Today's changes in health systems and the importance of health can be a basis for self-care, increasing the quality of services, patient satisfaction, achieving optimal levels of health in people, and finally using innovation to improve the quality of health services. Electronic measures in the health sector also include many benefits such as improving the quality of health services, reducing costs, and increasing efficiency. Therefore, this study aimed to design an ecosystem model of innovation with an emphasis on the role of e-government in Yazd hospitals. Methods: This was a qualitative-quantitative study conducted in Yazd in ۲۰۲۳. In the qualitative phase, ۷ people and in the quantitative phase, ۷۰ senior and middle managers of government and non-government hospitals were selected and interviewed through convenience sampling. In this study, SMSRT-PLS ۳.۲.۴ software was used to measure the reliability and validity of the questionnaire, considering the number of available samples (۷۰ people) and the insensitivity to the normality of the data. Cronbach's alpha coefficient and composite reliability coefficient (CR) were used to examine reliability, and convergent validity was used to examine validity. Results: Most of the participants were female (۸۱/۴۳%), between the ages of ۳۶-۵۴ (۳۴/۲۹%), and had a master's degree (۳۰%). After using factor analysis, the questionnaire was designed into ۴ dimensions: ۱- Activation of policies and regulations, ۲- Access to data and infrastructure, ۳- Funding and validation opportunities, ۴- Ease of adoption and dissemination of innovations The results showed that the reliability of these dimensions was ۸۹% , ۹۱%, ۷۶% and ۸۸%, respectively. Also, the validity results of Wager showed that its value for the studied dimensions was ۵۱%, ۷۱%, ۶۳% and ۷۹%, respectively. Conclusion: According to the accepted validity and reliability, this questionnaire can be a valid, reliable and easy-to-use tool to improve the field of technology. Although the questionnaire is in Persian, it can be used in other languages as a basis to check the validity and reliability through the scientific process.
