Kaizen

The majority of Healthcare processes aren't clearly defined, have no ownership or metrics and merely evolved over time. Dramatic improvements can be made by merely pulling the key stakeholders together for a few days, giving them simple tools and a roadmap and have them make the needed improvements. Kaizen can accelerate Lean-Sigma and Six Sigma projects to allow results in weeks instead of months and thus forms a key element in the K-SigmaTM methodology.

Don't be misled by the hollow promises of Work-Out. Kaizen differs significantly from Work-Out in that after a Kaizen event the changes are done (Work-Out merely lays down what needs to be done, but does not implement). For examples of Kaizen results in Healthcare and other industries see our Case Study selection.
