Clinical pathway management is an important part of public hospital reform, providing great significance for regulating medical behavior, improving medical quality, and controlling unreasonable medical expenses. In December 2020, a tertiary hospital conducted clinical pathway management practices based on clinical decision support systems. Through segmented design of clinical pathways, dynamic adjustment of pathway execution process, quality control throughout the entire process, and performance evaluation and continuous improvement, the management level of clinical pathways was comprehensively improved. After one year of practice, the hospital clinical pathway management based on clinical decision support systems had achieved good results. The average days of stay of patients decreased from 6.58 d in 2020 to 6.32 d in 2021, the proportion of admitted patients to discharged patients increased from 63.10% to 67.47%, the admission rate increased from 88.32% to 90.43%, and the variation rate decreased from 20.03% to 15.00%. This management practice provided a reference for public hospitals in China to improve the quality and efficiency of clinical pathway management.

Transportation service is an important part of hospital logistics management. In 2023, a tertiary hospital centered on patient service and guided by lean management, launched an intelligent transportation service in the " Didi" mode on the basis of the medical internet of things platform. This practice investigated the status of hospital transportation services and developed an intelligent transportation system that includes three subsystems: task reception and generation, dispatch and command of transportation center, and handheld computer accepting order. At the same time, standardized business processes were developed and transportation service performance evaluations were implemented. This practice had gradually piloted and achieved intelligent management of hospital transportation services. As of December 2023, the hospital had completed a total of about 310 thousand transportation tasks, of which 70% were intelligent system dispatching tasks. The timely delivery service rate had increased from 58% in 2022 to 98% in 2023. This practice had improved the quality and efficiency of transportation services, promoted the high-quality development of hospital logistics management, which could provide references for other hospitals to improve logistics management efficiency.
