Every physician's office is different. Whether you store your product on hand in a cabinet, closet or shelf, there are ways to maximize limited storage space. As summer comes to an end, now is the time to prepare your primary care offices for back to school season, flu season and more.
Setting up supply management for success now, can help prepare you for later in the year when products fly off shelves due to seasonality. From immunization and vaccine supplies such as needles and syringes to flu test kits, masks and gloves, now is the time to prepare for the rest of the year. Check out these supply organizational tips from Concordance.
Organize by Barcoding
Healthcare providers with stocked products and supplies can benefit from the adoption of a barcoding system. Barcoding allows providers to manage products more accurately and efficiently. Barcoding is a system that can dramatically increase inventory accuracy by making product immediately recognizable by using a scanner. The system does the grunt work for you, streamlining your inventory management process.
Organize by Procedure
Whether you work in a family practice, an Ob-Gyn, or a Dermatology practice, products need to be organized in order to streamline efficiencies for the increase of patient visits and for managing supply stock and future orders. This entails utilizing your distribution partner to help manage current inventory levels and help with future orders. Organize your products via procedure or exam room. This method leverages product on hand in the rooms they will be used. Instead of requiring trips to shared closets, individual cabinet or room storage adds convenience for physicians, nurses and other healthcare providers to utilize products and supplies as needed.
