According to statistics from foreign hospitals, labor costs account for up to 60% of hospital logistics costs. The primary cost influencing factor is the time spent by hospital personnel in different logistics activities and operations, followed by the cost of logistics technical support. As a result, foreign hospitals are paying more and more attention to the use of improved operational processes and the reduction of unnecessary activities to reduce the total cost of operations. Among them, hospital logistics as a key area of ​​cost improvement has attracted more and more attention.

According to foreign statistics, for every dollar spent on the procurement of materials, a logistics cost of 0.7 to 1 US dollars will be generated in the process of delivery to the end user. The introduction of advanced logistics automation tools and the establishment of modern logistics management processes can greatly improve efficiency and reduce costs, thus achieving economies of scale and optimal allocation of resources.
With the development of China's social economy and the deepening of the medical system reform, the construction of modern hospitals has become an important strategic goal and main task in the development planning of hospitals everywhere. Modern hospitals include medical technology modernization, management modernization, service modernization, equipment modernization, etc. Among them, hospital logistics modernization is the most important part of modern hospital construction. However, compared with developed countries in Europe and America, at present, most of China's hospital logistics automation is still in the early stage of development, and the foundation is still quite weak. The current situation is mostly the mode of “full-time delivery team + trolley + multiple elevatorsâ€. This traditional hospital logistics The transmission method is already very backward and cannot meet the needs of the development of modern hospitals. How to use more efficient and scientific means to complete the daily delivery of items required by hospitals has become a practical problem commonly faced by domestic hospitals.
Modern hospital logistics can be divided into four main activity areas: procurement logistics, inventory management, distribution and supply, and medical waste logistics. Hospital logistics has a strategic position in modern hospital management, covering almost every day of the hospital's business operations and management activities. Improving logistics efficiency, improving the overall operational performance of hospitals, and thus enhancing its core competitiveness are the inevitable outcomes of modern hospital logistics development and have important strategic significance for the long-term development of hospitals.
Because hospital logistics management has its own particularity, management is mainly based on inward logistics, and the daily transportation of hospitals becomes a key link in hospital logistics management. The core function of hospital logistics automation is to realize the automatic and rapid transmission of various daily medical items inside the hospital. Different logistics automation tools can be used to deliver small items such as medicines, small medical equipment, documents, specimens, blood, blood samples, X-ray films, dressings, prescriptions, office supplies, etc., as well as infusions, meals, medical waste, etc. Or a larger item. Therefore, the introduction of an effective and advanced logistics automation tool is very urgent and important.
