Fourth UK Lean Healthcare Forum 9 October 2007 Myths about Healthcare • “Healthcare is complex” – but patients follow a few common routes through hospitals • “A&E demand variable and unpredictable” – but elective demand is more variable and created • “Every patient is different” – but 6% of treatments account for 50% of the work • “Standard work kills creativity” - in fact it frees up time for more patient care • “Healthcare is a service” – looks like production
- 4. Fourth UK Lean Healthcare Forum 9 October 2007 What Have We Learnt? • The place to start is by following acute patients through hospitals from primary to tertiary care • Big opportunities from following the material flow through the supply chain to healthcare • The actions to create lean healthcare processes are increasingly clear • The challenge now is the transition path and lean healthcare management • We are beginning to see what lean hospitals might look like – and new business models
- 5. Fourth UK Lean Healthcare Forum 9 October 2007 Opportunities for Action • Get beyond Rapid Improvement Events • Establish stability everywhere • Develop clinical pathways • Create end-to-end value streams • Integrate diagnostic value streams • Replenish supplies frequently • Develop lean hospitals (healthcare systems) around the value streams • Lean healthcare supply chains
