Abstract

PurposeThis study aims to identify several perspectives that affect the adoption of blockchain technology in India (BCTA) and evaluate their impact. To study the sector’s influence on adoption and the impact of BCTA on the performance of the Indian healthcare supply chain (HSCP) using BCTA as a mediating variable.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, we first developed a conceptual model based on Organizational Information Processing Theory and Technology-Organization-Environment, then formulated hypotheses. Based on this, a questionnaire was developed, and data were gathered from experts in the Indian healthcare industry who were familiar with blockchain technology. AMOS 19 was used to analyze data using structural equation modelling.FindingsAll the factors have a significant positive influence on BCTA. Healthcare supply chain factors influenced the adoption most dominantly, followed by technological, environmental, organizational and record-keeping unit factors. Both the public and private sectors of HSCP benefited significantly from BCTA.Practical implicationsThis research work is fruitful for healthcare practitioners, top management, academicians and policymakers in assessing BCTA’s impact on the HSCP.Originality/valueWe have attempted to evaluate the possible BCTA impact on HSCP. BCTA as a mediating variable and considering different perspectives for a holistic view of adoption in the Indian context add to this work’s originality.
影响印度公共和私营部门医疗保健供应链绩效和影响力的因素:区块链技术应用的中介作用
目的本研究旨在确定影响印度采用区块链技术(BCTA)的几个角度,并评估其影响。以 BCTA 为中介变量,研究部门对采用的影响以及 BCTA 对印度医疗保健供应链(HSCP)绩效的影响。设计/方法/途径在本研究中,我们首先基于组织信息处理理论和技术-组织-环境建立了一个概念模型,然后提出了假设。在此基础上,我们编制了一份调查问卷,并从印度医疗保健行业熟悉区块链技术的专家那里收集了数据。结果所有因素都对 BCTA 有显著的积极影响。医疗保健供应链因素对采用的影响最大,其次是技术、环境、组织和记录保存单位因素。这项研究工作对于医疗从业人员、高层管理人员、学者和政策制定者评估 BCTA 对 HSCP 的影响很有帮助。将 BCTA 作为一个中介变量,并从不同角度全面考虑印度的采用情况,这些都增加了这项工作的原创性。
