The book begins with a description of the Enterprise Performance Excellence (EPE) improvement methodology developed by the author that links several methodologies including systems thinking, theory of constraints, Lean Six Sigma to provide an enterprise-wide prioritization and value-chain view of health care. The EPE methodology helps to improve flow at the macro or value-chain level, and then identifies Lean Six Sigma detailed improvements that can further improve processes within the value-chain. The book also provides real-world health care applications of the EPE and Lean Six Sigma methodologies that showed significant results on throughput, capacity, operational and financial performance. The Enterprise Performance Excellence methodology is described, and also the Six Sigma DMAIC (Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control) problem solving approach which is used to solve problems for health care processes as they are applied to real world cases. -- Provided by publisher. 000696519 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (ebrary, viewed January 2, 2014). 000696519 650_0 $$aHealth services administration$$vCase studies. 000696519 650_0 $$aMedical care$$xQuality control$$vCase studies. 000696519 650_0 $$aSix sigma (Quality control standard)$$vCase studies. 000696519 77608 $$cOriginal$$z1447155823$$z9781447155829 000696519 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696519 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-5583-6$$zOnline Access 000696519 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696519$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696519 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696519 980__ $$aBIB 000696519 982__ $$aEbook 000696519 983__ $$aOnline 000696519 994__ $$a92$$bISE
