The Role of EMRs in Chronic Disease Management and Quality Improvement
How to Lead Healthcare Quality Improvement and Practice Redesign Efforts
Application of Core Lean Six Sigma Principles to Reducing Costs and Increasing Quality
Using Lean Six Sigma to Guide a Healthcare Facility in Attesting to Meaningful Use
