Abstract

This study investigates the elements anticipated to affect healthcare hospitals' decision to use cloud computing. A quantitative technique is applied in this work. To find out how prepared and able the IT departments of various hospitals were to embrace cloud computing, 200 questionnaires were utilised. The decision of organisations to view cloud computing as a wise investment was influenced by Technology, Organisational, and Environmental aspects (TOE), as determined by multiple regression testing of the data. The study's results revealed that every element significantly improved hospitals' intention to use cloud computing, with the technological element having the biggest influence on the choice.
