Abstract
This study aims to investigate and explore the critical success factors which affect the integration of medical cloud and pharmaceutical logistics operations. To achieve research objective, we firstly collected the opinions of medical management experts through the process of the Delphi method, and then affecting the integration of medical cloud and healthcare logistics operations were screened and summarized. Secondly, the questionnaire was conducted and 11 experts’ assessments of the influence between every two factors were acquired. Furthermore, this study employed DANP to calculate the weight for each factor when there exists interaction relationship among the factors and to plot causal map. Reviewing the causal map and the weights for each factor, “To induct artificial intelligence (AI) into medical treatment” and “To develop intelligent healthcare logistics” are significantly higher than other factors in terms of total influence value, net influence value and relative importance. Our findings can provide hospitals and pharmaceutical companies as a basis in formulating cloud medical development strategy.
Highlights
As the people’s needs on material culture are getting higher and higher, they are paying more attention to their health
The so-called pharmaceutical logistics means that the resources of the entire supply chain are effectively integrated under the support of some information systems related to logistics, and technologies related to logistics
This study found that the SPD used by Fuzhou General Hospital has mostly remained on making outpatient appointments through the online platform
Summary
As the people’s needs on material culture are getting higher and higher, they are paying more attention to their health. There are minimal studies on cloud medical and pharmaceutical distribution at home and aboard, including very few integrated applications for cloud medical and pharmaceutical distribution. Under such a social background, we should emphasize their importance. Part 4 will introduce and analyze the current status of SPD and medical logistics in Fuzhou regional hospitals, construct the factors and structural aspects that affect the integration of cloud medical and pharmaceutical logistics, get the expert’s assessment, and perform the final DANP analysis. Part 5 will thoroughly combine the measurement and evaluation results, and propose feasible suggestions for integrating cloud medical and pharmaceutical distribution to make them more realistic
