  • Abstract
    New developments in medical technology, costing evaluation of services, changes in consumer needs and expectations, place the optimization of the supply chain management (SCM) in a crucial perspective. This is especially true in the case of healthcare systems and services in hospitals, where complexity and uncertainty make very difficult the design and management of efficient services.
