An Embarrassingly Poor Product
The March 16, 2003 edition of The New York Times Magazine front cover reads, “Half of what doctors know is wrong.”
The lead story is titled “The Biggest Mistake of Their Lives” and chronicles four survivors of medical errors.
The article goes on to say that in 2003, as many as 98,000 people in the United States will die as a result of medical errors.

New Management Method: The Virginia Mason Production System
We adopted the Toyota Production System philosophies and practices and applied them to health care because health care lacks an effective management approach that would produce:
• Customer first
• Highest quality
• Obsession with safety
• Highest staff satisfaction
• A successful economic enterprise
![Page 16: Seeking Zero Defects: Applying the Toyota Production ... Zero Defects: Applying the Toyota Production. System to Medicine. ... • Mistake-proofed, defect-free (safe) • Waste-free](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021510/5ab8a97f7f8b9a28468d1c00/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“You should submit wisdom to the company.
If you don’t have any wisdom to contribute, submit sweat.
If nothing else, work hard and don’t sleep.
Or resign.”Taiichi Ohno

Relentless “War on Waste”:Key to Quality
• Waste of overproduction • Waste of transportation• Waste of over processing • Waste of inventory• Waste of motion• Waste of making defective
products or poor quality• Waste of engineering

Summary
How are air conditioners, cars, looms and airplanes like health care?
• Every manufacturing element is a production processes
• Health care is a combination of complex production processes: admitting a patient, having a clinic visit, going to surgery or a procedure and sending out a bill
• These products involve thousands of processes—many of them very complex
• All of these products involve the concepts of quality, safety, customer satisfaction, staff satisfaction and cost effectiveness
• These products, if they fail, can cause fatality
