چکیده

مقدمه: رقابت‌پذیری زنجیره تأمین بیمارستانی، نشان‌ دهنده‌ قابلیت یک بیمارستان در ارایه خدمات در رقابت با دیگر بیمارستان‌ها است. زنجیره تأمین بیمارستانی رقابت‌پذیر، توانایی رقابت با سایر بیمارستان‌ها را در ارایه خدمات به بیماران دارد. هدف از انجام پژوهش حاضر، ارایه مدل زنجیره تأمین بیمارستانی رقابت‌پذیر بود.روش بررسی: این مطالعه به روش کیفی- کمی انجام شد. در مرحله اول با بررسی پیشینه پژوهش به روش فراترکیب و انجام 12 مصاحبه اکتشافی با افراد مطلع کلیدی بیمارستان‌های خصوصی، مؤلفه‌های رقابت‌پذیری زنجیره تأمین بیمارستانی استخراج و پس از دریافت نظر خبرگان با روش مصاحبه کانونی، با مشارکت 8 نفر از متخصصان حوزه بهداشت و درمان کشور، مدل عملیاتی پژوهش طراحی و سنجه‌های پرسش‌نامه بر اساس نسبت اعتبار محتوا تأیید گردید. جامعه آماری تحقیق در بخش کمی شامل رئیس و معاونان بیمارستان‌های‌ خصوصی فعال شهر تهران (73 بیمارستان) بود (238 نفر). برای اطمینان، 272 پرسش‌نامه برای مدیران ارشد 34 بیمارستان خصوصی ارسال شد که 244 پرسش‌نامه جمع‌آوری گردید. برای بررسی پایایی از ضریب Cronbach's alpha و پایایی ترکیبی استفاده گردید. داده‌ها به روش مدل‌سازی معادلات ساختاری، با رویکرد حداقل مربعات جزیی مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت.یافته‌ها: سازه‌های سه‌گانه پیشران‌های رقابت‌پذیری (شامل متغیر‌های استراتژی، فن‌آوری اطلاعات، سرمایه انسانی، یکپارچگی و منابع فیزیکی)، عوامل رقابت‌پذیری (شامل تخصص‌گرایی، پاسخ به تقاضا، برون‌سپاری، روابط با تأمین‌کنندگان، استانداردسازی، تسهیم اطلاعات، گردشگری سلامت و سبک مدیریت) و عملکرد رقابتی زنجیره تأمین (شامل مشتری، مالی، فرایندهای سازمانی و یادگیری و نوآوری) به ‌عنوان مؤلفه‌های اصلی مدل رقابت‌پذیر زنجیره تأمین بیمارستانی شناسایی شد.نتیجه‌گیری: شاخص‌های شناسایی ‌شده، چارچوب جامعی را برای افزایش رقابت‌پذیری زنجیره تأمین بیمارستانی فراهم می‌کند که با به ‌کارگیری آن، عملکرد زنجیره تأمین بیمارستان در برابر رقبا بهبود می‌یابد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Hospital supply chain (HSC) competitiveness represents the ability of a hospital to provide its services in competition with other hospitals. The competitive HSC has the ability to compete with other hospitals in provide services to patients. The purpose of this research was to provide a competitive model for HSC.Methods: This was a mixed-method study. By reviewing the literature using meta-analysis method, and performing 12 exploratory interviews with the key informants of private hospitals, the components of competitive HSC were extracted. Then, the opinions of health professionals in focus group were gathered, the competitive model of HSC was designed, and the indicators of questionnaire were finalized. The statistical population of the study consisted of the directors and assistant directors of private hospitals in Tehran, Iran (73 hospitals), with a sample of 238 people. In order to increase the certainty, 272 questionnaires were sent to top managers of 34 private hospitals, and 244 questionnaires were collected. The content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by the participation of 17 health professionals in the country. Cronbach's alpha coefficient and composite reliability were used to verify the reliability. Data was analyzed using structural equation modeling with partial least squares approach using SmartPLS 3 software.Results: Triple constructs of competitiveness leading factors (including strategy, information technology, human resource, and integrity), competitiveness factors (including specialization, demand management, outsourcing, supplier’s relationship, standardization, information sharing, and health tourism), and competitive supply chain performance factors (including customer, financial, organizational processes, and learning and innovating) were identified as the main components of the HSC competitive model.Conclusion: Identified indicators provide a comprehensive framework for increasing the competitiveness of the HSC, which will improve the performance of HSC against competitors.
