The entire activity cycle of drug supply chain management involves multiple entities such as government regulators, data management centers, pharmaceutical companies, drug logistics providers, hospitals, pharmacies, and consumers.

The government supervision department belongs to the supervision and inspection department, supervising the basic turnover of the entire life cycle of the drug process from the production of the pharmaceutical factory to the use of the consumer, to prevent any violation of discipline and law; the drug data management center is maintained by the pharmaceutical company itself or a third-party organization , is mainly responsible for distributing the unique identification code of drugs, backing up all records of drug production, warehousing, circulation and sales throughout the cycle, and realizing the two-way traceability function of drugs; in the production process of pharmaceutical companies, multi-level postings from single product to outer packaging box The electronic label is sealed to realize the traceability and anti-counterfeiting of the whole life cycle of drugs; drug logistics providers include logistics enterprises and multi-level distributors, and distribute to various hospitals and pharmacies according to the specific needs of drugs.

Drug supply chain management system based on RFID technology. Pharmaceutical companies purchase raw materials and put them into drug production according to specific drug order requirements. In the production process, RFID electronic tags are attached to the single product of the medicine and the outer packaging box. After the placement is completed, it is scanned by a specific reader on the production line to determine the validity of the label and bind the database content.

After confirming that everything is normal, enter the enterprise warehouse management system to perform management such as storage, storage, inventory, allocation, query, and statistics. Drug distribution units (including logistics companies, drug distributors, drug retail companies, medical institutions, etc.) are equipped with special RFID readers to identify the authenticity of products and write detailed circulation information to the drug management center. In the process of drug circulation, government supervision departments use hand-held special RFID readers to conduct on-site inspection and identification of any drugs in circulation or on sale, and write the inspection records into the drug management center.

Once an abnormality is found, the regulatory department will promptly extract the original records of the database, investigate the current situation of drug manufacturers and drug circulation, and implement corresponding emergency measures. In the sales link, when consumers buy medicines in hospitals or pharmacies, they use the general RFID readers in hospitals or pharmacies to trace the origin and identify the authenticity of the medicines.

The pharmaceutical supply chain management system is considered from the overall level of the system, including the physical device layer, the middleware layer and the application system layer. Each layer implements different functions. The physical device layer is the hardware layer, which collects or writes basic data; the middleware layer and the application layer are the software layer, which implements system data channels and predefined functions; the core of the application layer is the drug supply chain The integrated management platform works under the support of the core modules of the system, including workflow engine, massive data processing engine, system management engine and GIS positioning engine. The four core engines ensure the smooth operation of the entire system. At the same time, within the scope of the system application layer, it provides some auxiliary functions and interfaces, including security authentication function, data statistics function and external service function, and provides Internet network interface to facilitate the access of the outside world to the system.

According to the pre-defined functions of the system, the drug supply chain management system includes four functional modules: production management, warehouse management, logistics management, and sales management. The production management subsystem manages the drug processing process, seals the electronic label, and writes the initial data to provide the initial data basis for anti-counterfeiting and anti-collision; Manage the distribution of medicines, prevent cross-delivery, and locate and track the entire operation of medicine transportation vehicles; sales management realizes the functions of medicine sales, synchronous anti-counterfeiting, traceability and data statistics. Different functional modules in the system correspond to different hardware, but the data of all hardware devices passes through the unified system middleware to realize data collection, filtering, processing, aggregation and transmission.

Develop a drug supply chain management system based on RFID technology, establish drug electronic codes and electronic resumes on the entire drug supply chain, and realize timely and effective tracking and monitoring of the entire life cycle and process of drugs, which can effectively improve the level of government supervision. To the organic unity of pre-prevention, in-process supervision, and post-event handling, the full coverage of supervision work can be achieved; and the production and sale of counterfeit goods can be prevented to the greatest extent, and the ability to handle accidents can be improved. After the use of radio frequency identification technology, because the information in the RFID tag is difficult to be tampered with, the survival of counterfeit and shoddy drugs is suppressed. This is of great significance to ensure drug safety, strengthen drug supervision, improve the efficiency of the pharmaceutical supply chain, reduce the circulation cost of drugs, and improve the overall competitiveness of pharmaceutical companies.
