For the purpose of study, analyzing the actual condition of sub- ject hospital''s materials purchasing and inventory management, trying to make managerial diagnoses, unearthing managerial blind-points and proposing improvements. This study apply ABC classification and EOQ/ROP inventory theories to subject hospital''s materials management and thus evaluate the feasibility and economic effects of proposed quan- titative models. The conclusions of this study are presented as follows : 1.Utilizing ABC classification on subject hospital can poten- tially improve its management effectiveness; so EOQ/ ROP quantitative models are worth implementing immediately. 2.The lead time have to be controlled in shorter than EOQ supply days thus the EOQ model can function effectively. 3.The key factor to reduce safety quantity is to narrow down the standard deviation of lead time.
