摘要：This paper aims to search for pharmaceutical supply chain and supply chain theories related to hospitals in Vietnam. This is the first phase of research to develop a framework to transform the pharmaceutical supply chain model to adapt to the development trend of the industrial 4.0 era and the COVID-19 epidemic. The theoretical method is the basis applied in the research to the point of view of experienced pharmacists. Interviews were conducted with key pharmacists in the pharmaceutical supply chain from pharmaceutical manufacturing companies, pharmaceutical distribution companies, hospital Pharmacy Faculty, and pharmacist training universities in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The results show aspects that need to be transformed model of the pharmaceutical supply chain in the hospital. First, problems in hospitals are identified in the pharmaceutical supply chain. The next phase of this study will explore the aspects that need to transform the pharmaceutical supply chain model in hospitals in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The final step will evaluate the relationship of variables predicting at the hospital in the pharmaceutical supply chain. This study provides new insight into the pharmaceutical supply chain management in hospitals in Vietnam. The research results generate insights for hospital leaders about hospital pharmacy operations, which link to the pharmaceutical supply chain. By connecting and adapting principles to real-world contexts, stakeholders involved in the pharmaceutical supply chain will improve hospital performance in better patient care.
