A STUDY ON SUPPLY CHAIN APPLICATIONS IN THE HEALTH SECTOR

Öz

Supply chain management (SCM), which has been used in every field from the past to the present and whose contribution to both production systems and service systems is an undeniable concept, is important for systems. The concept of supply chain (SC) has made a name for itself in the production systems in the past years, and it provides efficiency, time management, customer satisfaction, coordination, etc. It has been drawing attention that SC applications are frequently used in service systems in recent years. The use of this applications, especially in service systems, will make a difference in the health sector, which serves an important purpose and is seen to be at a more important point in speed and plan compared to other sectors. Because speed is very important in the health sector from procurement decision to purchasing, from purchasing to storage, from storage to transportation of products and finally to the final consumer. The fact that the speed factor can be at the desired level requires all stakeholders to be in coordination. Ensuring the flow of information of the coordinated stakeholders through a common system is very important for the flow of material information and needs. For this reason, in this study, SCM of health industry is mentioned first. Afterwards, a comprehensive literature study was shared. Finally, the part of how this subject can be shaped in the future is discussed.
