Disruptive Innovation Technologies In
Healthcare

Disruptive Innovation
• Created in the new market along with the “value network” which
eventually disrupts an pre existing “market and value in the
network”
• Create a new market and value network which eventually disrupts
the existing market
• Displacing “established market leading firms, products, services
and alliances”
• Disruptive technologies believe in creating new alliances among
the “firms and products”.

Economic Factors
• At present the GDP of the country is depicted to be higher in compared to
UK, Germany and France.
• Stable “interest rates, rising exchange rates, relatively high levels of
employment along with a considerably low inflation rate”
• The health expenditure exceed by 10% of the gross domestic product
• Health spending continues to slow, not at the same extent as the GDP growth
• Repayment of mortgages are available to purchase property in Australia
thereby encompassing total of 75% to 85% of the valuation based on the
purchase price

Social Factors
• Social stratification class is segregated as “working class, the middle class,
and the upper class”
• The wealthiest 5 to 10 percent is usually regarded with the working “class,
the middle class, and the upper class”
• Main occupations are seen as “accountants, computing specialists, engineers,
and medical doctors”
• Acceptance of the inequalities related to the social class when it comes to
facilitating healthcare functions
• Infant child rearing varies from one country of origin, education, class
background and the religious groups to which the family belongs

Technological Factors
• Technology integration into the major systems in healthcare has been able to
reduce the cost and encourage innovations
• Healthcare Business is includes technologies such as desktop computer or a
fixed-wall phone so that the patients will be able to move to their next task
• Increased mobility with the secured access for the real time data for the
professionals is responsible for delivering faster patient care services, and
enhanced outcomes for the patient
• Australian Policies pertaining to science and technology are identified with
the “concentration of research and development in national research centers

Value Chain in Operations
• Following a timely aspect in the process cycle
• Connect to the suppliers’ value chains, channels value
chain and customer value chains
• Increasing the flow of capacity constraints
• Upgrading the existing services and products
• Enhance information flow, “attending the physician,
departing instructions and information passed to the
diagnosis and departing institute”

Value Stream

Value Chain in Outbound
Logistics
• Moving goods between the warehouses in large quantities within the pre-set of
workflows is straightforward in nature
• Healthcare industry is seen to be growing quickly and more number of patients are
getting rapid delivery of services
• Mobile technologies are seen to be emerging as an important tool for the connected
devices which allows for an increased transparency during the final phase of the
supply chain
• Collaboration between the receiving of orders and dispatch is put forward with
optimizing the process of operations and similar process
• Disruptive technology in the outbound logistics is discerned with Improved service
monitoring

Outbound Logistics for the health care service

Value Chain in Marketing and
Sales
• Implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data and machine learning in
healthcare service
• Expanding the market with social marketing initiatives
• Platforms used to promote the services of the product has been seen in terms of the
social “media sites such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter”
• Developing android and IOS apps has been seen in terms of MIMS, MedSearch and
MedicineWise app
• These applications are conducive in providing competitive rates on terms of than
general medical shops
• Disruptive technologies in these areas in seen to be effective in terms of the efficient
procurement and ordering of the products

E-Commerce in healthcare

Capabilities
• Linking the blueprint with “hospital records information treatment and
attending the physician”
• The interconnections are considered to improve the vital statistics and
insurance information
• Operations management in the healthcare is considered with maintaining
of information flows as per the different types of the departing instruction
• Optimization techniques in the blueprint is evident with the application of
methods such as cost optimization, inventory planning and material
requirement planning
