The book, Performance Improvement for Healthcare, by Bahadir Inozu et al., principles at NOVACES, LLC, explains how healthcare administrators can manage their companies by using contemporary management concepts of Lean, Six Sigma and Constraints Management. These concepts all have been around for a long time, employed widely in other economic sectors and to some degree in healthcare. The book teaches how to appropriately combine these methods in an important sector of the economy.
Healthcare still exhibits features of a cottage industry in the area of management, even while utilizing the most advanced technologies in patient care. Disproportionally increasing Healthcare expenses compared to the other expenses continue to be major concern for executives in government and private industry. Contemporary economy dictates efficiencies in every area and healthcare is not immune from it. Thus conditions are setting up a conflict-laden environment between payors and healthcare delivery apparatus. This book starts with a premise that good business and good patient care are paired. Good management will translate into more efficient and better healthcare delivery for the patients. The system is likely to fail everyone starting with the patient if one or another is not administered efficiently and effectively.
The book starts with basic terminology. This is important and shows good insight by the authors because many healthcare administrators come from professional backgrounds who may have ascended from a technical pathway rather than a management pathway to their current position. The book proceeds with examples of thinking process, buffer management and supply chain logistics to demonstrate how one can increase the throughput even in the face of adverse payor conditions and turn a profit.
