Abstract

Drug supplies are the major portion of the hospital expenses. The rising of drugs cost directly affect the total expenses of the hospital. Thus, their procurement, especially for fast-moving drugs, should be managed effectively. This study aimed to examine the efficiency of fast-moving drug plan after reorder point (ROP) intervention at a private hospital in Bandung. We conducted a pre-experimental study and used turn-over ratio (TOR) as a parameter. Data were taken from the stock of antibiotics in May-June of 2013 and May-June 2014. Cost components were collected; included the amount of stock, the cost of goods sold, and daily drug use. We did pre-test and post-test analysis to check the efficiency of intervention. The results showed that ROP intervention increased the efficiency of fast-moving drug plan. The comparison of pre- and post- intervention resulted a lower inventory value and a greater TOR value. We concluded that the increase in efficiency will eventually require a smaller budget of drug expenses.
