2 Outline Introduction Background Methodology Suitability of Best Practices Effectiveness of Best Practices Derivation of Best Practices Conclusion

3 Business Process Redesign (BPR) Radical restructuring of a business process with wide-scale application of information technology (Hammer, 1993) AS-IS TO-BE

4 BPR best practices historical solution that seems worthwhile to replicate in another situation or setting set of best practices is inspiration for practitioners to generate local updates to existing process focus on organization and structure of processes and NOT on improving the medical practice itself

5 Research Questions To what extent are the BPR best practices suitable for redesigning healthcare processes? Is the use of best practices effective in the healthcare domain? Is it possible to extend the set of best practices with the lessons learned from redesigning healthcare processes?

8 BPR best practices Best practices are identified related to the topics in the framework Collection of 29 best practices for business process improvement * For each best practice: a qualitative description, the potential effects, and possible drawbacks is given * H.A.

11 Outline Introduction Background Methodology Suitability of Best Practices Effectiveness of Best Practices Derivation of Best Practices Conclusion

12 Methodology The research questions are addressed on the basis of 14 case studies: z INSPEC ABI/ Inform x health care healthcare hospital(s) y design redesign reengineering management process(es) pathway(s) flow(s) chain(s) operation(s) 10 cases operational 2 case studies we conducted ourselves 2 case studies Dutch Academic Medical Center

13 Outline Introduction Background Methodology Suitability of Best Practices Effectiveness of Best Practices Derivation of Best Practices Conclusion

14 Question I Best practices have been tested earlier in a single case study => redesign approach "To what extent are the best practices suitable for redesigning healthcare processes?" 1. Explicit Use of Best Practices 2. Implicit Use of Best Practices

15 Explicit Use of Best Practices Example 1: ask the referring doctor for medical file at referral: REDUC, EXCEP, RESEQ Example 2: give intakers full responsibility for determination of treatment plan: EMP

16 Implicit Use of Best Practices 'Implicitly used': part of the intervention is highly similar to the description of a best practice Example: changing the degree of specialization of the involved resource "consider making resources more specialized or generalized" (SPEC)

17 Suitability of Best Practices

18 Outline Introduction Background Methodology Suitability of Best Practices Effectiveness of Best Practices Derivation of Best Practices Conclusion

19 Question II Best practices are applicable to the healthcare domain, but: "Is the use of best practices effective?" Best practices are effective if the resulting to-be process shows an improved performance on the chosen performance indicators Evaluation with: 1. Simulation 2. Post-intervention Measurement

20 Simulation-Based To-be Evaluation Evaluation cf. phase 4 of the redesign approach: 1. The process owner decides which to-be scenarios and performance goals are most important 2. The key performance indicators are determined for each scenario with simulation Examples for case 1: Medical file is asked at referral => 13% reduction in throughput time Intakers are empowered to determine the treatment plan => 20% reduction in throughput time (decrease from 10 to 8 days)

21 To-be Evaluation by Post-intervention Measurement Case studies 4, 5 and 8 use a before-after design and report on the effects of the intervention All show a.o. a significant reduction of the total throughput time Example (case 8): average MRI examination time shortened by 5 minutes per patient to maximize MRI capacity and increase patient throughput time with 18%

22 Outline Introduction Background Methodology Suitability of Best Practices Effectiveness of Best Practices Derivation of Best Practices Conclusion

23 Question III "Is it possible to extend the set of best practices with the lessons learned from redesigning healthcare processes?" Not all changes that are described in the case studies are covered by the current set of best practices => find lessons learned Found potential best practices are connected to one of the aspects identified in the redesign framework

24 Customer Involvement Obtain insight in the demands of customers and the added value and bottlenecks as perceived by customers Customer aspect of redesign framework Application improves the quality of to-be scenarios

25 Scheduling Schedule the least variant patient categories at the beginning of the clinical sessions Behavioral view aspect of redesign framework Application leads to a reduction of internal queuing times

26 Resource Joining Place resources responsible for adjacent tasks (geographically) close together Organization-structure aspect of redesign framework Application reduces the throughput time of the process

27 Outline Introduction Background Methodology Suitability of Best Practices Effectiveness of Best Practices Derivation of Best Practices Conclusion

28 Conclusion BPR best practices seem highly suitable for the healthcare domain They appear to be an effective means to improve process performance Three additional, potential best practices seem worthwhile to be considered in future BPR initiatives The healthcare domain can heavily benefit from relying on previous experiences BPR best practices are one example of how to re-use design knowledge
