With the cancellation of the policy of “approval of third-party drug logistics business”, a large number of powerful enterprises that meet the conditions of modern pharmaceutical logistics have entered the pharmaceutical logistics. In t his context, the introduction of third-party logistics service providers int o the pharmaceutical supply chain system makes the problem study more practi cal. A three-level pharmaceutical supply chain operation mode was c onst ructed, which was composed of pharmaceutical manufacturers, phar maceutical distributors, third-party logistics service providers and retail pharmacies/ hospitals. By using game model, the relevant indicators under independent d ecision-making and cooperative decision-making can be compared a nd analyzed. The results show that in a certain range of cooperative cost, the performance index of pharmaceutical supply chain cooperative decision is significantly higher than that of independent decision. On this basis, considering t wo conditions that every supply chain member can obtain more benefit s than that of independent decisions and the relative leadership of supply chain members, the cooperation benefits of pharmaceutical supply chain are reasonably distributed by three-distribution method based on profit distribution factors. Combined with the results, the elements affecting the profit distribution factor are explored, and the value range of the profit distribution factor is continuously reduced until the final result is determined and applied in practi ce, so as to ensure the stable cooperative operation of the pharmace utical supply chain system.
