Abstract- Six Sigma is both a philosophy and a methodology that improves quality by analyzing data with statistics to find the root cause of quality problems and to implement controls.

Quality improvement methods have been introduced to healthcare settings with a view to improving quality and effectiveness. However, Lean Six Sigma is really only just the beginning. To help reduce waste and improve quality care, many hospitals and healthcare practices have adopted Six Sigma management tools to help achieve goals. 0000001818 00000 n
For example, articles in trade publications have credited both Six Sigma [14, 15] and Lean/Toyota Production System [] with hospital successes. Journal of Healthcare Management/American College of Healthcare Executives, ⦠Six Sigma, on the other hand, aims to reduce variation within a process which can result in defects or errors. Six Sigma, lean, and simulation modeling are all popular methodologies, but they have rarely been used together in healthcare process improvement. Lean Six Sigma in Healthcare Although sometimes confused, Lean and Six Sigma are often used in tandem in healthcare and other industries to create improvements, but they go about it in ⦠0000003086 00000 n
