Sinopsis

Drawing on extensive experience in healthcare operations improvement, the Wisconsin-based author looks to Toyota's lean production method as a model to help stem the escalating costs of US healthcare. Following an overview of system problems and the failure of other quality improvement approaches, he prescribes a treatment plan that encompasses defining value from the patient's perspective to holding onto gains achieved. Error-free pathology serves as an application example. Annotation �2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Rese�a del editor

What differentiates this book from other healthcare improvement books is that it is the only one currently available that presents a simple recipe of 38 lean steps for healthcare providers to reduce cost and improve quality. By taking these straightforward steps, healthcare providers can adopt the same lean methods which have enabled companies like Toyota to become so successful. The reader will learn to understand and implement a 38-step recipe to reduce healthcare costs and improve quality at healthcare providers by using Toyota Lean Production methods; understand cost and quality issues facing healthcare in the U.S.; and implement a permanent organizational structure to continuously improve quality and cost within a healthcare organization.
