Healthcare Supply ChainHealthcare Supply ChainIn healthcare organizations, supply chain is a new way of conceptualizing medical supply management.
A supply chain is defined as “a virtual network that facilitates the movement of product from its production, distribution and consumption” (McFadden and Leahy, 2000).

Healthcare Supply ChainHealthcare Supply ChainManufacturers/Suppliers. Manufacturers of medical
supplies can be classified in three categories: 1) drugs/pharmaceutical, 2) medical-surgical supplies, and 3) devices.
Some manufacturers produce supplies in more than onecategory or in all categories.

Well known pharmaceutical manufacturers include Abbott,Aventis Pharma, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eli Lilly, Merck,GlaxoSmithKline, Hoffmann-La Roche, Janssen, Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Schering-Plough and Wyeth.
Twenty-five percent of pharmaceutical products aredistributed to providers (hospitals and other institutionalsettings) via distributors.
Medical-surgical companies produce items such as injectionsyringes and needles, blood and specimen collection kits,hospital laboratory products, wound management products,and intravenous solutions.
3M, Abbot, Baxter, Johnson & Johnson are a few of the well known medical-surgical companies that sell majority oftheir products through distributors.

Medical devices can be described as very high priced,technologically sophisticated and advanced apparatus thatare used for diagnosis and therapies.
Medical devices include surgical and medical instrumentsAnd apparatus, orthopedic, prosthetic and surgicalappliances (for example, shoulder, knee, and hipreplacements), X-Ray apparatus, tubes, irradiationapparatus, electro-medical and electro-therapeutic devices.
Dupuy, Ortho Biotech, Medtronic, and Zimmer are examplesof the companies that manufacture such devices (Burns,2002; p.244).

Distributors for medical-surgical supplies are independentintermediaries who operate their own warehouses; theypurchase the products from manufacturers/suppliers to sellto providers.
Similarly, pharmaceutical intermediariespurchase the drugs/pharmaceuticals from manufacturersand wholesale them to pharmacies or to providers. Well known distributors of pharmaceuticals includeAmriSource/Bergen Brunswig, Cardinal Health/BindleyWestern and McKesson.
The intermediaries are called distributor or wholesalersdepending on whether the products’ final resale has anotherlayer before reaching the customer (Burns, 2002; p.127).Cardinal Health, Owens&Minor, and McKesson are majordistribution companies in hospital market.

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Linking providers through electronic communication to their distributors is formally defined as electronic data interchange (EDI).
EDI provides direct, real-time computer to computer electronic transmission of purchase orders, shipping notices, invoices and the like between providers and distributors.
Over seventy-five percent of distributors use EDI, and seventy to eighty percent of their business volume is handled through EDI (Burns, 2002, pp.130-131).
EDI is also proliferating to manufacturer transactions with other parts of the health care supply chain; more than one-third of their business transactions use EDI.
The cost for standardized EDI transactions for a purchase order, as compared to costs with manual systems, saves operational costs for both providers and distributors.

Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs).
Group purchasing organizations provide a critical financial advantage to providers, especially hospitals and hospital systems, by negotiating purchasing contracts for products and non-labor services.
A typical GPO has many hospital organizations as its members and uses this as collective buying power in negotiating contracts with many suppliers: of pharmaceuticals, medical-surgical, supplies, laboratory, imaging, durable medical equipment, facility maintenance, information technology, insurance, food and dietary products and services.
The contracts usually last three to five years, giving providers price protection (Burns, 2002, pp. 60-64).

Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs).
Over 600 GPOs operate in the United States; perhaps half of them focus their business on hospitals.
The two largest GPOs are Novation and Premier, which are nonprofit. AmeriNet, HSCA and Consorta are the other sizable non-profit GPOs.
The two investor-owned, for-profit GPOs are HCA/Health Trust and Tenet/BuyPower.
A provider may be member of multiple GPOs. The average Hospital GPO membership ranges 1.6 to 2.6 GPOs in US.

e-Distributors.
e-commerce in health care can be viewed from different perspectives. Here we will concentrate on two aspects: business to business (B2B) commerce and business to customer (B2C) commerce.
Examples of B2B firms are: Medibuy, Neoforma, MedAssets, OmniCell, and Promedix.
These firms provide e-Catalog, e-Request for Proposal (eRFP), e-Auction, and e-Specials.

Flow of Materials
It is important to note that depending upon the type of medical supply, the flow of materials in the supply chain may take more direct routes to providers or end users. Suppliers may bypass GPOs by not contracting or negotiating price arrangements.
High-end implants and medical devices, specialty items of low volume but high price, are good examples of such medical supplies for which suppliers use direct delivery, usually via express services (like FedEx, UPS, or DHL) or have their own local/regional sales representatives make the just-in-time (JIT) delivery and serve as consultants to physicians. In some cases, the company’s representatives provide technical participation with surgeons in implanting devices surgically.
Other cases in which suppliers may bypass GPOs in contracting are for small-volume, esoteric items, and for the brand-name, specialty drugs used to treat cancer and cardiovascular problems.

Contemporary Issues in Medical Inventory ManagementContemporary Issues in Medical Inventory Management
Just-In-Time (JIT) and Stockless Inventories. Inventory management in healthcare organizations is becoming increasingly decentralized. JIT means that goods arrive just before they are needed.
Stockless inventory means obtaining most of supplies from a single source (a prime vendor) in small packaging units ready to be taken to the user departments.
Single versus Multiple Vendors. The essence of the purchasing function is to obtain the right equipment, supplies and services, and of the right quality, in the right quantity from the right source at the right price at the right time.

Only 26 percent of medical-surgical products can be scanned on nursing units, and only fifty percent of drugs have bar codes for unit doses.
According to the final regulation issued by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2004, drug manufacturers must adopt bar coding to single-dose units within two years, and hospitals must eventually implement bedside scanning systems.
The FDA estimates, however, that it may take up to two decades for all hospitals to implement such systems because of their high costs: from $.5 to $1 million. Only a few more than 100 hospitals currently them.
Yet bar code systems would significantly improve the quality of patient care through reduction of medication errors. It is estimated that over a 20-year period, fully implemented bar code systems would prevent about .5 million medical errors. Moreover, by improving the cost-efficiency of medical supply management, hospitals would also reap $90 billion in savings, which would help to pay for the technology (Becker, 2004).

Inventories are used to satisfy demand requirements, so reliable estimates of the amounts and timing of demand are essential. It is also essential to know how long it will take for orders to be delivered (Stevenson, 2002, p.547).
Now that healthcare organizations increasingly rely on their vendors to maintain adequate inventory levels in their facilities, their data relevant to demand must be transferred to their vendors.
Healthcare managers also need to know the extent to which demand and lead time (the time between submitting an order and receiving it) may vary; the greater the potential variability, the greater the need for additional stock to avoid a shortage between deliveries.

Example 11.1:Example 11.1: Syringe Inventory Syringe InventoryAn orthopedic physician group practice uses 12cc syringes from Sherwood for their cortisone injections. During the each of last two years, 40000 of them were used in the office. Each syringe costs $1.50. The physician’s office annually discards, on average, 500 of the syringes that have became inoperable (broken, wrong injection material, lost). The syringes are stored in a room that occupies 2% of the storage area. The storage area constitutes 10% of the leased space. The annual office lease costs $60,000. The group practice can secure loans from a local bank at 6% interest to purchase the syringes. For each placed order, it takes about three hours for an office assistant (whose hourly wage is $9.00 and who receives $3.25 in fringe benefits) to prepare, and communicate the order, and place its shipment in storage. In addition, each order’s overhead share of equipment and supplies (phone, fax, computer, stationary paper) is approximately $4.50. In the past, the office assistant always placed 5,000 syringes in each order. The deliveries are made in boxes of 1000 syringes and are always received three working days after the order is placed. What should be the EOQ for the 12cc syringe? What are the inventory management costs for these syringes?What are the investment costs?How many times in a year should an order be placed?

To calculate EOQ, we need to estimate the holding and ordering costs.
Annual holding cost
1) Cost of inoperable syringes – 1.50 * 500 = $750.2) Storage cost – (60000 Lease) * .10 (storage area) * .02 (syringe) = $120.3) Interest on a loan used to purchase 5000 syringes: 5000 *1.5*.06 = $450.
Total annual holding costs = 750 + 120 + 450 = 1320.Annual holding cost per syringe: 1320 ÷ 40000 = $.033.
Ordering costOffice assistant’s time – 3 hours * (9.00+3.25) = $36.75.Overhead – $4.50.Total ordering cost – $36.75 + $4.50 = $41.25.Using formula the EOQ formula:

Solution:Solution:Total inventory management cost calculated using formula:
Investment cost:Investment costs = Order quantity * price of the item, or= Qo * p = 10000 * 1.50 = $15,000.00.
Investment cost is the amount committed to purchase the syringes. It is cycled as the cost of the syringes is recovered from patients and/or third party payers.

SummarySummarySummarySummary
The two decisions were how much to order, and when to order. To determine how much to order, you use an EOQ model that minimizes the sum of the total ordering and carrying costs.
When to order? Should we order when you are almost out of inventory?!

Constant Demand Rate and Lead TimeConstant Demand Rate and Lead TimeThere is no risk of a stock-out created by increased demand oflead times longer than expected. Thus, ROP equals the product of usage rate and lead time; no cushion stock is necessary.
There is no risk of a stock-out created by increased demand oflead times longer than expected. Thus, ROP equals the product of usage rate and lead time; no cushion stock is necessary.
Example 11.2An orthopedist surgeon replaces two hips per day. The implants are delivered two days after an order is placed, via express delivery. When should the supply chain manager order the implants?
Solution:Usage = 2 implants daily.Lead Time = 2 days.ROP = Usage Lead Time = 2 * 2 = 4.
Thus, order should be placed when 4 implants are left!

Example 11.3 A dentist office uses an average of 2 boxes ofgloves (100-glove boxes) per day, and leadtimes average 5 days. Because both theusage rate and lead times are variable, theoffice carries a safety stock of 4 boxes of gloves.Determine the ROP.
Solution:
ROP = 2 boxes/daily 5 day lead time + 4 boxes
ROP = 14 boxes.
Example 11.3 A dentist office uses an average of 2 boxes ofgloves (100-glove boxes) per day, and leadtimes average 5 days. Because both theusage rate and lead times are variable, theoffice carries a safety stock of 4 boxes of gloves.Determine the ROP.
Solution:
ROP = 2 boxes/daily 5 day lead time + 4 boxes
ROP = 14 boxes.
Safety Stock-- stock held in excess of expected demand when demand rate and/or lead time is variable
ROP = Expected demand during lead time + safety stock

Service Level-- probability that demand will not exceed supply during lead time.
Service level is the complement of stock-out risk; 95% service level means a 5% risk of stock-out.
The greater the variability in either demand rate or lead time, the greater the amount of safety stock needed to achieve that service level.
