Winner of a 2013 Shingo Research and Professional Publication Award America¿s healthcare system needs to change. Not only does our country spend 16 percent of its gross domestic product on healthcare, but despite spending more than other industrialized countries, our general health lags behind. While we have plenty of data identifying where healthcare in America falls short, we¿ve precious little practical, hands-on information about how to fix it. In The Pittsburgh Way to Efficient Healthcare, Naida Grunden provides a ingenious and optimistic look at how principles borrowed from industry can be applied to make healthcare safer, and in doing so, make it more effective and less costly. The book is a compilation of case studies from units in different hospitals around the Pittsburgh region that successfully applied industrial principles to the benefit of patients and the satisfaction of employees. The Pittsburgh Way to Efficient Healthcare is written for all healthcare stakeholders ¿ from clinicians to insurers to employers to those who have the greatest stake in healthcare quality improvement, the patients.
