This book examines the new developments in health 4.0 and the medical supply chain. Although supply chain applications in health systems are similar to other sectors, the most critical difference is that any disruption affects public health. There have been changes due to COVID-19 that caused significant disruptions in the supply chain of almost all sectors. The health sector is one of the most important sectors affected by all these extraordinary conditions. Supply chain management is even more critical because the health sector directly impacts the sustainability of human life and the provision of better living conditions. In this book, the use of artificial intelligence in the health and medical supply chain is discussed, taking into account the conditions of the post-pandemic period.
