Abstract

Logistics and supply chain management system for hospital pharmacy is an important element of HIS. But the HIS in common use still lack support for drug logistics and supply chain service functionality and documentation management is done manually. There is a information gap between hospital and drug supplier because of traditional HIS. The software described here represents an important step forward to fill this gap. Our system realized real-time tracing and supply chain management of all drugs in hospital by using Internet of Things and Web Services technology. The proposed system is mainly used for information process during drug purchase, request, distribution, acceptance, provision and drug inventory management. It has a significant impact on information management of hospital pharmacy.
