Organizational and behavioral attributes� roles in adopting cloud services: An empirical study in the healthcare industry

The need for cloud services has been raised globally to provide a platform for healthcare providers to efficiently manage their citizens� health records and thus provide treatment remotely. In Iraq, the healthcare records of public hospitals are increasing progressively with poor digital management....
