Hastanelerde Envanter Yönetimi: Tıbbi Sarf Malzemeleri İçin ABC-VED-SDE Matris Analizi Uygulaması

Sağlık kuruluşları, kaynaklarının kullanımını optimize etmeyi, üretkenliği artırmayı, işletme giderlerini en aza indirmeyi ve olağanüstü kalitede hizmetler sunmayı amaçlar. Sağlık kuruluşları tıbbi sarf malzemelerinin tedariki, depolanması ve kontrolü ile ilgili önemli masraflarla karşı karşıyadır. Sağlık geri ödeme sistemi kapsamında olmayan bu ürünlerin satın alma, elde bulundurma ve dağıtma maliyetleri önemli olabilir. Bu nedenle, tıbbi sarf malzemelerin kullanıcılar için hazır, uygun maliyette ve en uygun durumda olmasını sağlamak için verimli yönetim uygulamalarının uygulanması çok önemlidir. Sağlık kuruluşlarında kaliteli bakım ve maliyet azaltma arayışları, etkin envanter yönetimini hedefleyerek ve envanter yönetimi uygulamalarını optimize ederek, kaynakların kullanımda verimliliği artırabilir ve nihayetinde sağlık hizmetlerinin karşılanabilirliğini ve erişilebilirliğini geliştirebilir. Bu çalışmada, hastaneler için daha etkili bir envanter yönetim sistemi sağlayarak, tıbbi sarf malzeme stokunun sınıflandırılmasına yardımcı olacak birden çok kriteri göz önünde bulunduran ABC-VED-SED matris analizi önerilmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı ABC-VED-SED yöntemleri kullanılarak tıbbi sarf malzemelere yapılan yıllık harcamaları değerlendirerek hastanede stok maliyetlerinin optimum seviyesi elde etmektir. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, "AVS", "AVD", ve "AVE grupları toplam envanter değerinin büyük bir kısmını oluşturmaktadır ve bu gruplardaki malzemelerin yönetimi için öncelikli olarak sıkı bir kontrol sağlanmalıdır. Sonuç olarak sağlık hizmetlerinde birden farklı kriteri göz önünde bulunduran envanter yönetimi araçlarının düzenli olarak uygulanması, sınırlı kaynakları verimli bir şekilde yönetmek ve ihtiyatlı kaynak kullanımı yoluyla daha iyi hasta bakımına öncülük etmek için esastır.

Inventory Management in Hospitals: An application of ABC-VED-SDE Matrix Analysis for Medical Supplies

Health institutions aim to optimize the utilization of their resources, increase productivity, minimize operational expenses, and, provide services of exceptional quality. Health institutions are faced with significant expenses related to the procurement, storage and control of medical supplies. The costs associated with the purchase, possession, and distribution of these products, which are not covered by the health reimbursement system, can be substantial. Therefore, implementation of efficient management practices is of paramount importance to ensure that medical supplies are readily available, cost-effective and in the most suitable condition for the users. The pursuit of quality care and cost reduction in healthcare institutions can enhance resource utilization efficiency and ultimately improve the affordability and accessibility of healthcare services by targeting effective inventory management and optimizing inventory management practices. In this study, we propose the ABC-VED-SED matrix analysis, which takes into consideration multiple criteria to assist in the classification of medical supplies inventory, providing a more effective inventory management system for hospitals. The study aims to evaluate annual expenditures on medical supplies by using the ABC-VED-SED method, in order to achieve the optimal level of inventory costs in the hospital. According to the analysis results, the "AVS," "AVD," and "AVE" groups constitute a significant portion of the total inventory value, and strict control should be prioritized for managing the materials within these groups. In conclusion, regular implementation of inventory management tools that consider multiple criteria in healthcare services is essential to efficiently manage limited resources and prioritize prudent resource utilization, ultimately leading to better patient care.
