This research is related to the importance of Green Supply Chain Management in the Healthcare sector. Awareness regarding this is increasing, especially in the field of supply chain management. Efficient supply chain management is essential in the healthcare sector. Social and economic benefits are generated through green supply chain management. Supply chain management plays a crucial role in waste management. This research is an exploratory study of the drivers and barriers faced by Permata Pratama Clinic Family in implementing Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM). Data collection was conducted using interviews and questionnaires consisting of 15 questions administered to 6 selected respondents using a purposive sampling technique. Several drivers and barriers were adopted from previous research and adapted to the Healthcare sector at Permata Pratama Clinic Family. The results obtained show that the highest barriers faced by the Healthcare sector are barriers to knowledge and awareness; barriers to technology; and economic barriers. Meanwhile, the drivers with the highest percentage are government regulation; ISO 14001 certification; and reusing and recycling materials and packaging. The discovery of these factors can provide in-depth knowledge for the Healthcare sector at Permata Pratama Clinic Family to improve drivers and prevent existing barriers.
