Abstract
In the present era, a healthy, competent, creative and capable human resource is the most important asset of a country. Therefore, in the development literature, a healthy person is considered the axis of sustainable development. The health of social actors in different fields is affected by numerous factors, one of which is managerial and organizational factors. Accordingly, the main objective of the present study is to identify the managerial and organizational determinants of health in East Azerbaijan province. The research method used is qualitative with a Mi'kmaq structural analysis approach. The participants of the present study were 40 key informants in this field in East Azerbaijan province, and purposive sampling was used to determine the sample size, taking into account the saturation rule. The results of structural analysis using the Miqmac software showed that, in order, the determinants of health management include government macro policies (rank 1), attention to health attachment in all policies (rank 2), deterministic attitudes in the health system (rank 3), belief in government decision-making (rank 4), meritocracy (rank 5), health spending in education (rank 6), transparency and full role playing (rank 7). The citizen health project in all dimensions, apart from dependence on medical factors and a biological treatment-oriented view, is sometimes affected by other factors at a macro level, and accordingly, managerial and organizational factors deserve thoughtful attention.
