Abstract
Purpose—The purpose of this article is to explore methods for the rational management of medical consumables, with the aim of providing reference for the future management of medical consumables. Methods—The hospital where the author is affiliated implemented a classification coding consumables management model in January 2021. Statistical analysis was conducted on the usage data of medical consumables for the full year of 2020 and 2021. The application effectiveness of the classification coding consumables management model in the workplace was evaluated. Results—In the third quarter and fourth quarter of 2021, the percentage of medical consumables usage per hundred yuan was 24.6% and 18.4%, respectively, both lower than 26.0% and 26.3% in 2020, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Compared to the year 2020, the total amount of medical consumables in 2021 increased by 21.2%, and the amount of high-value consumables increased by 40.4%, with an increase of 4.5% in the number of high-value consumable types. After comparing 300 cases of medical consumables sampled for each quarter, the rates of irrational usage in the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2021 were 14.0%, 12.7%, 11.7%, and 7.0%, respectively, all lower than 18.7% in 2020, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion—The management of medical consumables through classification coding can effectively control the percentage of medical consumables usage per hundred yuan, facilitate the control of various types of consumables, and increase the total revenue of medical consumables while reducing the rate of irrational usage.
