The<br />present study aimed to determine the relationship between availability of patients’ therapy information<br />management infrastructures and perceived lean services to find suitable model.<br />Methods: The study population included all the patients in the hospitals and medical centers of Isfahan,<br />Iran (n = 103). Subjects were selected by available sampling method (2011-2012). This was a descriptivecorrelative<br />study in which the data were collected through three researcher-made questionnaires:<br />Questionnaire of availability to patients’ therapy information management infrastructures (33 items,<br />α = 0.87), questionnaire of perceived lean services (12 items, α = 0.93) and questionnaire of patient’s<br />satisfaction (15 items, α = 0.89).<br />Results: The results indicated the direct effects of information management infrastructures caused by<br />condition of perception for patients (0.34) and information management for outpatients (0.27) in addition<br />to the direct effect of the outpatients (0.42) and direct effects of information management for reception of<br />patients due to any additional time (0.33). Moreover, there was a direct effect of information management<br />for patients’ medical documents and literacy (0.13). The comparative fit index (CFA) showed that the<br />measurement model fit the data very well with a goodness of fit index (GFI) of 0.9 and adjusted goodness<br />of fit index (AGFI) equal to 0.953, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) equal to 0.078, and<br />a chi-square equal to 268.6 (P < 0.001).<br />Conclusion: The therapy information management infrastructures must be prepared to enhance quality of<br />services to patients.
