In this paper, collaboration between organizations of a similar level of care, such as primary healthcare practices, is labelled horizontal collaboration, and collaboration between organizations of different levels of care, such as primary healthcare practices and hospitals, is labelled vertical collaboration[ 20].
To evaluate its performance, a numerical experiment is conducted by comparing three models: no collaboration, static collaboration, and dynamic collaboration by Adaptive CDCS protocol.
A pattern of clustering was demonstrated across the Past Collaboration, Current Collaboration and Future Collaboration sociograms.
The empirical data suggest a threefold typology: active collaboration, developing collaboration and potential collaboration.
