Features: This book is a part of Hospital Management. Adhering to the principles of advancement, practicality, and theoretical depth, it provides an in-depth yet accessible explanation of hospital logistics management. Additionally, it reflects the contemporary pulse of the development of modern hospital management disciplines. The authors have thoroughly examined various existing hospital models in modern China and argue that, amid the deepening reform of healthcare, the socialization of logistics services has become the direction of current hospital logistics reform. How to perfect this proposition still awaits continuous exploration. "Management yields benefits," and the ultimate goal of hospital logistics management is to improve the hospital's economic and social benefits, optimize service quality and work processes, and rationally utilize limited human and intellectual resources. However, there are numerous disagreements and practical challenges in evaluating the benefits of hospital logistics management. This is because hospital logistics management fundamentally serves medical care, research, and teaching, and must emphasize the "service" concept. The benefits of hospital logistics management are often extensively integrated and reflected in the hospital's overall performance. This book also provides a systematic explanation of the benefit evaluation system for hospital logistics management and proposes an operational rating indicator system. The book consists of twelve chapters, with the main content including: an overview of hospital logistics management, hospital logistics management in the new era, the organization of hospital logistics management, hospital material resource management, hospital building and facility management, environmental protection management, and more.
