Abstract

Background: During the Covid-19 pandemic, the management of drug inventory and sypply faces a great challenges. A common problem in the management of supplies at the pharmacy installation is the accumulation of drugs that are rarely used, which causes drugs to become damaged or expired, as well as the shortage of drugs that should be available. RSU Kaliwates Jember has implemented a strategy in 2023 to optimize the drug inventory in the Pharmacy department by applying a Just-In-Time strategy in drug purchasing. This study aims to analyze the impact of the strategy in three sector: drug procurement cost, total inventory cost, and inventory day. Methods:   The analysis applied the Quacy-experimental one group pretest-posttest design. The main goal is to analyze causal relationships by comparing the results of the two tests in order to determine the impact of the treatment. This study is a one-group pretest-posttest research design by comparing the value before and after the implementation of just-In-Time strategy, value at 2022 and 2023. The data was obtained from system management at RSU Kaliwates Jember (SIMRS) for procurement cost, inventory values, an inventory days. Results:   The analysis showed that there is a significant efficiency in drug procurement cost with a p-value of 0.041. For the total inventory value, the strategy could significantly reduce the value wiyh p-value of 0.006. In addition, the strategy could shorten significantly the inventory days with p-value 0.017. Conclusions:   This study conclude that the implementation of just-in-time strategy has an impact on improving the efficiency of drug inventory management especially in the reduction of the procurement cost, inventory value and inventory days. The impact of this strategy is worth to further analyze in the other sector such us in the drug wastage due to dead stock or expire drug and drug shortage that could affect the pharmacy care.

Abstract

Introduction: Antihypertensive drugs require high costs because they are used over a long period. Therefore, consideration is needed in drug selection requirements, effectiveness, and price. This study aimed to see the beneficial results of hypertension therapy and the non-medical costs incurred by patients using cost-utility analysis (CUA). Method: This research was a prospective study. The incremental Cost-Utility Ratio (ICUR) of antihypertensive treatment was calculated using cost-utility data obtained through EQ-5D-5L questionnaires from outpatients at Universitas Andalas Hospital in January- March 2023 who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The costs used were from a patient perspective, consisting of direct medical and non-medical costs. This study compared standard treatment (amlodipine) with the addition of candesartan. Results: The number of respondents in this study was 67, consisting of 23 respondents (34.33%) using amlodipine alone and 44 respondents (65.67%) using the amlodipine-candesartan combination. The ICUR value obtained was IDR7,318,674/QALY. The difference in the average utility value of the amlodipine-candesartan combination with amlodipine alone is -0.02, and the difference in cost is -IDR12,224. Based on the cost-utility diagram, the amlodipine-candesartan combination group is included in the southwest quadrant (quadrant III), which illustrates that the cost required for the amlodipine-candesartan combination group is lower than the cost of the amlodipine single treatment group and the outcome is also not better (slightly lower or the same). Conclusion: It was recommended to prioritize using amlodipine alone for hypertension management, as it provides similar outcomes to the amlodipine-candesartan combination while incurring lower costs.
