Organizations are planning and investing in entering different digital fields, and thus e-readiness assessment to measure their success is important. In this study, we investigate the causes of e-readiness based on different point of views using interpretative structural modeling to explain the e-readiness of the medical Industry. Based on a comprehensive literature review and also collecting the opinions of experts (17 experts) six factors were identified to explain the e-readiness in the medical Industry. Then, using interpretation structural model factors were graded in three levels. After determining the levels of each factors and taking into account the availability of the final matrix, the final interpretation model was achieved. The obtained results show that factors such as Infrastructure and access, human resources, and organizational structure in relation to e-readiness assessment are more effective than the other factors in the medical Industry. The results of this research suggest the managers of pharmaceutical industry that for moving toward the digital world important factors should be identified and factors with low level of performance require special attention.

The current dynamic and turbulent business environment has forced organization to change their traditional methods of conducting business. Hence, it is important for organizations to evaluate e-readiness to use the advantages of recent developments in information technology. The ever-increasing number of studies on e-readiness and scattered information in this field has sparked the interest of this research in a systematic and scientific manner. This paper, using meta-analysis method and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software (CMA2), aggregated the findings of 15 master theses and six articles. A total number of 23 studies were selected according to inclusive criteria. The finding of this study confirmed the important of variables such as human resource, management factors,Organizational capabilities, infrastructure, economic factors and environmental factors on the e-readiness of Iranian organization. Finding also show that there are some moderating factors that affect researches results.
