Abstract

Material management is important and crucial for all healthcare industries because it not only deals with the financial aspects but also deals with the well-being of the hospital and quality care of the patient. Reducing inventory cost is a critical responsibility of healthcare managers in hospitals. Inventory management should be done with the help of proper value analysis. This study attempts to assess the inventory techniques and monthly maintenance figure which have contributed to efficient inventory management in a tertiary care teaching hospital.
