Abstract [eng] The healthcare supply chain is a complex and multifaceted entity. A poorly functioning healthcare supply chain can directly affect patient health and facility performance. The task of this paper is to examine the most significant aspects of supply chain risk management in the healthcare industry. The review was carried out by analyzing the literature for keywords in major databases. Based on the authors' literature research, the most important factors related to the supply chain are presented. In addition to supply chain risk assessment, other factors closely related to the supply chain are considered. Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the topic of supply chain risk management has received much more attention from scientists and researchers. Before, the field had not been the subject of much research activity.
