Xinhua Hospital ePS

Shanghai Jiao Tong University School ofMedicine Affiliated Xinhua Hospital was established in 1958. It is a moderncomprehensive teaching hospital with a full range of disciplines, distinctivespecialties, integrating medical, educational, and research functions. Thehospital has 1228 approved beXinds, 47 clinical departments, 66 specialties, and 8 school-level research laboratories, including cardiac intervention treatmentdepartments and other medical technology platforms, and also hosts a WHO newborn care cooperation center, a Ministry of Health genetic medicine newbornscreening and genetic metabolic disease center, Shanghai hearing disorderdiagnosis and treatment center, etc. The hospital was among the first to useinformation technology for pharmaceutical logistics management, and itsapplication level has been leading domestically. Over the years of applyinginformation technology, they discovered disparities in the overall applicationlevel of pharmaceutical logistics in the country, leading to the followingissues within the hospital:

  • ·Supplier purchasing platforms andthird-party purchasing platforms operated independently, creating informationsilos.
  • ·Drug acceptance work required different equipment and systems for different purchasing platforms, resulting in asignificant and cumbersome workload.
  • ·Barcode management for drugs was not unified,and in-hospital logistics and HIS systems could not share barcode information.
  • ·Tracking of drug packaging quantities was difficult.
  • Tracking of drug packaging quantities was difficult.
  • The segregated state of drug barcodes hinderedthe deep integration of information technology applications such as in-hospitaldrug packaging machines, patient medication verification systems, and directsales systems from secondary storages. In response to these issues, the hospitalstarted discussing an integrated pharmaceutical logistics system with GY Health in 2009. Through the joint efforts of hospital leaders and Ge Yin implementation personnel, the "ePS" system was successfully deployed. Now, the "ePS " system is running robustly in Xinhua Hospital, successfully unifying barcode information from the original 58commercial companies in the hospital, significantly reducing the originallogistics management intensity, and significantly improving the overalllogistics management level of the hospital. It has also cleared obstacles formany core applications such as in-hospital drug packaging machines, directsales from secondary storages, and patient medication verification systems.
