Abstract:
Objective To analyze residents' awareness,usage,and influencing factors regarding smart shared Tradition-al Chinese Medicine(TCM)pharmacies in Nanchang City.Methods Descriptive analysis,one-way ANOVA,chi-square tests,and hierarchical regression analysis were employed to determine the awareness,usage,and influencing factors of shared TCM pharmacies.Results The survey revealed that the primary channel for disseminating information about smart shared TCM phar-macies is the internet.The functions of TCM decoction and delivery services were widely recognized among respondents.Conven-ience was a key advantage considered by users.Most respondents had not used smart shared TCM pharmacy services,while over half primarily utilized TCM decoction,delivery,and prescription review services.Willingness to pay for decoction and delivery services was moderate,and drug quality emerged as a critical issue for the development of smart shared TCM pharmacies.Statisti-cally significant differences in awareness were observed across age,education level,residential area,household registration type,occupation,and household income(P＜0.05).Age,occupation,residential area,and household registration significantly influ-enced usage frequency(P＜0.05).The primary drivers of usage behavior were the functional value of smart shared TCM phar-macies rather than demographic characteristics.Conclusion It is recommended that the government,hospitals,and enterprises collaborate to establish a service framework for smart shared TCM pharmacies that ensures"visible quality,reliable delivery,and affordable pricing".
