7 The Word of the Moment in Healthcare Is Unsustainable The size of the federal budget deficit is unsustainable The annual increase in the Medicare budget is unsustainable The percentage of healthcare spending to GDP is unsustainable State Medicaid programs are unsustainable The continued transfer of costs to employers and consumers is unsustainable 7

8 Do you feel a sense of urgency? 8

9 What actions will be necessary to preserve your margin? What impact will those actions have on your overall performance? 9

10 What are you willing to do to not let that happen? How are YOU willing to change? Lead differently? 10

11

12 What is Lean About? Providing Value to Our Customers Continuous Improvement Engaging People in Problem Solving Respect for People Identify and Eliminate Waste 12

13

14 Elements of Lean Processes 14

15

16 Respect for People No Layoff Philosophy Reassignment Process Candor with Respect Learning Environment Communicate! Engage staff and physicians in problem solving 16

17 Problems are Opportunities Failures are okay!! 17

18 Lean Tools PDSA (Plan, Do, Study, Act) A3 Rapid Improvement Event (Kaizen Event) Value Stream Mapping 2P/3P (Process, Preparation, Production) 5S (Sort, Scrub, Straighten, Safety, Standardize, Sustain) Strategy Deployment 18

19 A3/PDSA thinking Background Why are you talking about it? Tell the story Current Situation Where do we stand? Goal Analysis What s the problem? Where we need to be? What is the specific change you want to accomplish now? - What is the root cause(s) of the problem? - What requirements, constraints and alternatives need to be considered? Recommendations/Experiments What is your proposed countermeasure(s)? How will you know it is working? Plan What activities will be required for implementation and who will be responsible for what and when? Follow-up/Study/Adjust How we will know if the actions have the impact needed? What remaining issues can be anticipated?

20 What is a Rapid Improvement Event? A two to five day focused improvement activity It has aggressive, measurable objectives Emphasis on the elimination of unnecessary non value-adding activities Rapid Implementation (during the event) Anticipate the work to really begin after the event followup and sustainment

21 Value Stream Mapping 2-4 day process to create a future state picture and action plan to create breakthrough and fundamentally change how we perform a process Starts with the customer and their requirements Includes understanding the flow of the product being transformed as well as the flow of information Identifies key problems to be worked 21

22 2P (Process, Preparation) 2P in Healthcare: Utilizes the current known methods and constructs/organizes them in the least waste way to create performance in defined objectives New Facility Process change or re-location New product or service development or introduction Major capacity rate change Chronic problems/process not meeting targets New Equipment: Process & Layout 22

23 6S 1: SORT GET RID OF WHAT'S NOT NEEDED 6: SUSTAIN SELF-DISCIPLINE AND CARE 6-S APPLIES TO ALL AREAS AUDIT AND IMPROVE 2: STRAIGHTEN ORGANIZE WHAT IS NEEDED (VISUAL MANAGEMENT) 5: STANDARDIZE ESTABLISH WHO / WHAT / WHEN FOR UPKEEP 3: SCRUB CLEAN UP (SEE AND SOLVE) 4: SAFETY ADDRESS UNSAFE ACTS, CONDITIONS, MOTIONS 23

25 Leadership The Key to Lean 25

26 We have been trying to add Toyota Production System practices and principles on top of our existing management thinking and practice without adjusting that thinking and practice. Mike Rother from Toyota Kata 26

27 Culture is an idea arising from experience. That is, our idea of the culture of a place or organization is a result of what we experience there. In this way, a company s culture is a result of its management system culture is critical, and to change it, you have to change your management system. Creating a Lean Culture by David Mann 27

28 Jim Womack Lean Enterprise Institute: ThedaCare visit 5/9/08 All processes have a desperate desire to head toward chaos, to get worse fast, and the only thing standing in the way is management. Who is responsible for this process with their team?

29 Leadership In Lean Lean is much more about transforming the way we lead than any tool. Paradigm shift: leader as a teacher of problem solving instead of solving problems 29

53 Where can you get help? Learn from each other! Go and See! Get your hands dirty! 53

54 Caution when going to see Lean is not about other peoples solutions Focus on how they are leading through the process and on the methods used to create the solutions 54

55 1. Identify the crisis 2. Create a lean promotion office 3. Find change agents 4. Map your value streams 5. Engage senior leaders early in strategy deployment 6. Acquire and disperse knowledge broadly 7. Teach a man to fish 8. Involve suppliers in lead 9. Restructure your organization into product families 55
