Description

{INVENTORY MANAGEMENT METHOD OF DRUG}

The present invention relates to a method for managing drug inventories for managing drug inventories, and more particularly, to a method for managing inventories of medicines in order to prescribe a low-price substitute drug at a clinic terminal (doctor's side) To a drug inventory management method capable of exhausting inventory medicine accumulated in a pharmacy.

Along with the division of medicine, there have been concerns about the availability of many kinds of prescription drugs and concerns about stock medicines.

In other words, pharmaceutical companies' seminars, marketing of medicines, introduction of new drugs, and frequent changes in prescriptions have resulted in an increase in the number of pharmaceuticals to be prepared at the pharmacy, and there are also unopened unused prescription drugs .

In the event of a prescription change, the pharmacy may notify the prescribing physician and may make alternative prescriptions. However, in reality, in a pharmacy that has a close relationship with a medical clinic, it is not possible to substitute pharmacists for pharmacists'

In order to solve the inventory medicine accumulated in the pharmacy due to these reasons, the pharmacy association has been carrying out the business of returning the stock medicine or carrying out the exchange between the pharmacies, but the stock medicine is steadily occurring.

As a result, the pharmacists 'business balance is worsened, which not only lowers the pharmacists' morale but also promotes mutual distrust in the medical field. In addition, disposal of resources due to the generation of stock medicines is a major waste of national resources.

On the other hand, conventionally, the inventories of medicines prescribed or sold in a hospital or a pharmacy are generally monitored, or an inventory of the medicines is monitored by monitoring whether or not the safety stock amount is exceeded.

However, these drug inventory controls are merely passive countermeasures and do not help resolve inventory medicines that accumulate within pharmacies that are practically necessary.

In another embodiment, the recommendation ranking module 211 may determine a recommendation ranking based on one or more selected from the group including the clinic proximity distance, the pharmacy scale, the number of stock holdings, and the drug efficacy rating.

In this regard, the evaluation degree calculating module 213 can calculate the drug effectiveness evaluation degree.

The evaluation degree calculating module 213 calculates the evaluation degree calculating module 213 based on the change in the ranking of the first evaluation result on the drug efficacy for the patients who have analyzed the prescription for a prescribed period and prescribe at least two or more similar allotment drugs extracted, May be configured to calculate an assessment score based on a change in the ranking of the second outcome of drug efficacy for doctors who prescribe at least two or more similar allelic alternatives extracted by analyzing a prescription.

That is, in the present invention, a first weight is assigned to a pharmacy ranking of a first evaluation result, which is a result of evaluating the efficacy of medicines, and a second weight is assigned to a pharmacy ranking of the second evaluation result, You will be able to select the recommendation rank of the pharmacy referring to the results. Here, the reason for assigning the first weight to the results of the doctor's evaluation of the medicines is taking into account the prescription and selection of the alternative medicine.

For example, if it is assumed that the first, second, and third positions of the first and second evaluation pharmacies are assigned 10 points, 7 points, 5 points, and 3 points, the first weight is 1.5 points, the second weight Can be assumed to be one point. At this time, when each ranking is as shown in Table 1 below, the pharmacy score to which the weight for each pharmacy is applied is as follows.

 ranking  First Assessment  2nd Rating  Remarks  One  C pharmacy  C pharmacy  January  2  A pharmacy  A pharmacy  February  3  B pharmacy  D pharmacy  In March  4  D pharmacy  E pharmacy  April

A pharmacy: 7 * 1.5 + 7 * 1 = 17.5

B Pharmacy: 5 * 1.5 + 3 * 1 = 10.5

C pharmacy: 10 * 1.5 + 10 * 1 = 25

D Pharmacy: 3 * 1.5 + 5 * 1 = 9.5

According to this, when the drug efficacy evaluation scale is used as a reference, the order of recommendation can be determined in the order of C pharmacy-> A pharmacy-> B pharmacy-> D pharmacy.
