Deploying the Principles of Lean Production to Healthcare
Sunday, February 24, 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Charles Noon, PhD
Joseph "Jody" Crane, MD, MBA
Keith Leitner, M.S.
This workshop provides a hands-on approach to understanding and deploying Lean principles in healthcare. The workshop will begin with a hands-on simulation of an Emergency Department to demonstrate why traditional improvement approaches have only limited success. After introducing Lean principles, the simulation will be revisited and the participants will utilize a basic set of Lean Tools to improve the process. Although this will indeed result in an improved system, it will also highlight aspects of healthcare that require special attention and analysis in order to gain even greater improvements. Additional Lean principles will then be introduced and mapped into the simulation.
The workshop will be conducted by a faculty team with experience in teaching and deploying Lean Healthcare in the U.S., Canada, and Europe.

During this workshop, attendees will learn effective methods for tailoring project management principles, as defined by the Project Management Institute's Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK), to meet individual project needs for both clinical and non-clinical projects. Additional emphasis will be given to ensure strategic alignment of projects through a project selection process, while also examining the current state of a process prior to signing a contract.

Leading the IT Charge: Realities and Strategies
Sunday, February 24, 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Kim Slocum, FHIMSS
Kenneth Klineberg
IT Professionals in healthcare can encounter problems where accepted wisdom about the value of IT is often inadequate to produce stakeholder buy-in for deployment of technology tools. This can lead to frustration, lack of job satisfaction, and poor results. It is important for IT professionals to learn about the broader health policy context in which they must operate so they can better understand the root causes for some of the challenges they encounter from various stakeholders. At the same time, they must develop leadership and change management skills that will allow them to overcome these challenges and bring the benefits of information technology to a field that can benefit greatly from what IT has to offer.
This workshop will provide a background on the current US health care landscape, issues that affect stakeholder attitudes toward IT as well as offer insight into the leadership and change management skills IT professionals will require to succeed.
