The primary purpose of this study is to undertake a diagnostic investigation of the international health care logistical environment and determine whether regulatory policies or industry procedures have hindered the implementation of just-in-time (JIT) systems and then to recommend operational improvements to be achieved by implementing JIT Systems.
DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: The analysis was conducted in a systematic manner and compared the anticipated benefits with benefits validated in other industries from the implementation of JIT. An extensive literature review was conducted.
In this particular study the cost and benefit outcomes achieved from a health care JIT implementation were compared with those achieved by the manufacturing, service, and retail industries. Chiefly, it was found that the health service market must be restructured to encourage greater price competition among priorities. A new standardization process should eliminate duplication of products and realize substantial savings.
ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The analysis was conducted in a systematic manner and compared the anticipated benefits with benefits validated in other industries from the implementation of JIT.
本研究的主要目的是对国际医疗保健物流环境进行诊断调查,确定监管政策或行业程序是否阻碍了准时制(JIT)系统的实施,然后推荐通过实施JIT系统实现的运营改进措施。
设计/方法/途径:分析以系统的方式进行,并将预期收益与其他行业实施JIT所验证的收益进行比较。进行了广泛的文献综述。
在这项具体研究中,将医疗保健实施JIT所实现的成本和收益结果与制造业、服务业和零售业所实现的结果进行了比较。主要发现,医疗服务市场必须进行重组,以鼓励在优先事项之间进行更大程度的价格竞争。一个新的标准化过程应消除产品重复并实现大幅节省。
原创性/价值:分析以系统的方式进行,并将预期收益与其他行业实施JIT所验证的收益进行比较。
