A systems approach to understanding the needs of today’s healthcare supply chain
Strategic Management of the Healthcare Supply Chain offers a big-picture overview and a proven strategic framework for supply chain management in healthcare. It also addresses concrete strategies for risk management, partnerships, logistics, performance assessment, information technology, and beyond.

Written by a team of authors with both research expertise and practical experience in healthcare supply chain, this broad and impactful book teases out the complexities within the supply chain field and the healthcare ecosystem.
The healthcare industry is evolving rapidly, and the role of the supply chain is shifting in response.

Additionally, the role of supply chain in safeguarding the social determinants of health—food, transportation, critical health-related products—is rapidly expanding, especially in historically underserved populations. This revised edition takes a holistic approach to the needs of people and organizations, yielding strategies that will improve both economic and health outcomes.
