The Top Five Essentials for Quality Improvement in HealthcareHealth Catalyst
Quality improvement in healthcare is complicated, but we’re beginning to understand what successful quality improvement programs have in common:
Adaptive leadership, culture, and governance
Analytics
Evidence- and consensus-based best practices
Adoption
Financial alignment
Although understanding the top five essentials for quality improvement in healthcare is key, it’s equally important to understand the most useful definitions and key considerations. For example, how different service delivery models (telemedicine, ACO, etc.) impact quality improvement programs and how quality improvement starts with an organization’s underlying systems of care.
This executive report takes an in-depth look at quality improvement with the goal of providing health systems with not only the top five essentials but also a more comprehensive understanding of the topic so they’re in a better position to improve quality and, ultimately, transform healthcare.

A new intellectual product named Lean Enablers for Clinical Laboratories (LEfCL) is described. It is a collection of 136 best practices for clinical laboratory operations, containing collective wisdom on how to practice laboratory management, focusing on simultaneous improvements in test quality, productivity, laboratory capacity and stakeholder satisfaction, and reductions of test turnaround time and cost. The methodology follows an awarded method established in Systems Engineering and represents an extension of that engineering knowledge into clinical practice. The product has been developed by experienced directors from Kaiser Permanente regional clinical laboratory while pursuing a graduate Certificate in Lean Healthcare at Loyola Marymount University. LEfCL are organized into six well-known Lean Principles: Value, Value Stream Mapping, Flow, Pull, Perfection and Respect. The paper also identifies 46 Challenges that prevent success. Results of Lean improvements measured over the period of 2014-2016 are quoted for five laboratories. The LEfCL are not intended to become a mandatory practice. Instead, they should be used as a checklist of good practices. LEfCL are formulated as a comprehensive set of practices, intended for future training of new hires and as reference material. As such, they include both basic and advanced practices.

Panel at 2015 Global Symposium on Racing & Gaming:
Assembling an effective drug testing program that delivers best value for state regulators, horsemen, racetrack operators and horseplayers requires considerable technical knowledge. RMTC Laboratory Accreditation assures the provider is capable but is your service agreement limiting performance? Panelists will review the meaning of Lab Accreditation, illuminate pitfalls of the RFP process and service contract language, and highlight resources available to those seeking true value for their drug testing dollar.

The statistical quality control (SQC) techniques can be efficiently exploited to improve the quality of services as well as the products. These tools helps to identify the assignable causes of variation in quality from that of the chance causes, so that proper remedial measures can be taken at right time in order to improve the quality of services. Paramedical services are to be promptly handled to provide quality service to the patients preferably inpatients for their utmost satisfaction. The present study aims at analyzing the time taken to deliver different paramedical services to the patients admitted in selected Hospital, Bhubaneswar. Here we identify the pitfalls of the system in delivering such services and suggested some remedial measures in order to improve the quality of various paramedical services.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
