Wilmington, DE (prHWY.com) October 22, 2012 - Description:
This webinar is about ways by which to implement lean practice in the healthcare environment, with a focus on physician practice.
Why should lean practice and concepts be implemented into a healthcare setting? Simple -to reduce errors and waiting time for anything that needs implementing. Lean practice makes a huge difference to the healthcare organization. These are some of them:
o ensuring that the patient gets exactly what she is looking for and in the form she wants it
o improve patient and staff satisfaction
o reduce hidden costs of inefficient processes
o improve patient flow and billing processes
This webinar will familiarize participants with ways by which lean practice and concepts can be implemented into a healthcare setting. These include learning how to map out and visualize patient and process flow; how to use visual signals to improve efficiency and productivity; how to identify and reduce waste (non-value added activities); and how to deliver greater value to patients using less resources.
As a result of this learning session; participants will be able to implement these concepts into making their processes more productive, efficient and less cumbersome. This webinar will help them reduce errors in their daily work and become able to come out with vastly improved disease management, health maintenance, and more effective patient education.
