Abstract
Healthcare organisations are currently in an era of significant digital transformation further accelerated through the COVID-19 pandemic. Organisations are seeking to adapt within a globalised environment with the ever-increasing supply chain disruptions, complexity of care and regulatory requirements. To be successful in this new era, organisations must re-envision their supply chain to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs and be flexible and adaptable in their ability to respond to the competitive marketplace. The combination of traditional production and cyber-physical production will indicate the evolution from traditional business models to the emerging non-linear supply chains with a patient-centric focus. The aim of this article is to review the healthcare supply chain in the context of digitally enabled technologies such as hyperledger and Blockchain, which have the potential to extensively alter healthcare organisations. The management contributions include the development of a reusable hyperchain artifact, construct development and understanding of the shift from the traditional healthcare supply chain to the industry 4.0 digital healthcare model instantiation of the hyperchain.
