A method by which a pharmacy department improved its purchasing and inventory control system is described. System changes to the computerized inventory control system included implementation of a formulary, affiliation with a group purchasing association, and transfer of specified purchasing and inventory control functions to the technical staff of the purchasing department. Pharmacy maintained the decision-making authority over all vendors and dosage forms of drug products. Optimal results were achieved when the purchasing department's pharmacy buyer position was staffed with an employee who had previous experience as a clerical worker in the pharmacy. The authors state that this system has proved to be an effective, cost efficient method of purchasing and inventory control of pharmaceuticals in their hospital.
本文描述了一个药房部门改进其采购和库存控制系统的方法。计算机化库存控制系统的系统变更包括实施药品处方集、加入集团采购协会，以及将特定的采购和库存控制职能转移到采购部门的技术人员手中。药房保留了对所有药品供应商和剂型的决策权。当采购部门的药房采购员职位由曾在药房担任过文书工作的员工担任时，取得了最佳效果。作者指出，该系统已被证明是他们医院药品采购和库存控制的一种有效且具有成本效益的方法。
