Description
The 2016 Lean Healthcare Transformation Summit is taking place in Miami on June 15–16, with pre-summit workshops on June 13–14.
Last year's summit sold out quickly, so please plan accordingly.
The ThedaCare Center for Healthcare Value and the Lean Enterprise Institute team up to deliver this two-day conference highlighting transformations in the healthcare industry. By attending this summit, participants will learn from examples of care delivery redesign supported by results, examples of payment systems that reward patient value creation, and cases of business intelligence supporting performance transparency.
This year the discussion will resume on how focusing on delivery, transparency, and payment continue to be the underpinnings of a system of healthcare transformation, as outlined in the ThedaCare Center’s publication Management on the Mend.

Embrace the Fuzzy Crystal Ball
Phil used to be a very senior financial executive. When asked for a number, he would typically provide with a rough ballpark answer, such as, “It’s about 5 percent.” He’d then be peppered with questions about how he had arrived at that figure.
