Webinar: Using LSS to Address Cost Opportunities in a Clinical Laboratory Setting

When:  Sep 11, 2024 from 12:00 PM to 01:00 PM (CT)
Associated with  Lean Enterprise Division
Lean and Six Sigma can be applied in many industries for effective operations. Within the healthcare industry, the clinical laboratory is where medical tests are performed on patient samples to aid in diagnosis and treatment.  Lab services leverage 60-70% of critical decision-making such as admittance, discharge, and medication. 
 
This presentation will discuss how LSS can be applied within the clinical laboratory.  It will start with a brief overview of current laboratory industry challenges, then describe how LSS can be used to address four top cost saving opportunities in the lab.
 
The opportunities include the costs of
* lab testing
* lab labor
* lab equipment/supplies
* reference testing
* blood products
 
In line with Lean's goals to create value for customers and minimize waste, and Six Sigma's goal of financial savings, these four areas of focus in labs benefit from applying these principles.
 
This free event is open to all.
