The Problem:
Did you know that 70% of processes in Healthcare Organizations (HCOs) are generic?

These include:

• Patient Admissions Process
• Patient Discharge Process
• Emergency Response Time
• Inventory and Supply Chain Management
• Housekeeping and Facility Maintenance
• and more…

These processes often have chronic problems, leading to patient dissatisfaction and wasteful costs —collectively known as the Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ).

Adopt Structured Problem-Solving, across your organization.
