Driving Out Waste in Your Healthcare Organization - New!

Discover strategies and practices to reduce healthcare waste and maintain quality

Wasteful activities in healthcare can consume as much as 30-40 percent of an organization’s revenue. This is not sustainable, especially in an environment of health reform and reduced reimbursement. Healthcare executives need tools and techniques to assist in the identification and eradication of waste in their organizations without sacrificing quality. Through interactive exercises and case studies, you will be fully immersed in the waste reduction concepts presented, gaining knowledge and tools that can be directly applied. You will also examine the necessary groundwork to create an environment where Lean and Six Sigma management techniques will succeed.

  • Understand the methods and techniques employed to support waste reduction initiatives in healthcare.
  • Apply tools to frame and maximize the waste reduction opportunity in your organization.
