,1. Integrated care ecosystems
Characteristics of the system
Ecosystems can be understood as dynamic and co-evolving communities. An eco-system is:
- Purposeful
- Collection of entities
- Relationships between entities (structure)
- Behaviour: dynamic interaction (system as a negotiated order)
- External environment (open systems)
- Input-transformation-output-feedback
- Process, flow
An eco-system is the network of organizations—incl. suppliers, distributors, customers (patients),
competitors, government agencies, etc.—involved in the delivery of a product or service through
both competition and cooperation.

, Origin: business ecosystems
(Moore, J. F., 1993 Predators and Prey: A new Ecology of Competition)
Systems vs. networks
Ecosystems differ from networks because of the following reasons:
Types of systems
- Sub system
A number of parts with all the relations (e.g., department).
- Aspect system
A specific set of relations of a system (e.g., arrows from a quality perspective or a finance
perspective).
