Welcome to Lean Healthcare Partners, LLC Healthcare worldwide in 2008 is in crisis. Whether in the public, single payer systems of the European countries, or the insurance based systems of the Americas, costs continue to spiral out of control. Political systems try to find ways to justify extra spending intended to counteract the increases. In the UK alone, between 1994 and 2004 the expenditures on the National Health Service doubled from £46Bn to £93Bn with only a 3% increase in measurable productivity. In the US, insurance premiums have been increasing at a rate double that of inflation for the last decade. A lot of very smart people are working on healthcare systems, and a lot of ground breaking research is published on cost. Rarely do these people or publications question WHY costs continue to rise. Lean Healthcare Partners was formed to address this issue directly. Using a combination of philosophies and methodologies derived from the Toyota Production System, Change Management, and Organizational Lifecycle Analysis, we help healthcare organizations focus on their issues in a structured way to reduce waste, and costs resulting in greater capacity. Please take a look through our website to find out more about how we can help you.
