Praise for Lean Sigma--Rebuilding Capability in Healthcare "Ian has been a valued business partner for many years. His most recent focus in our strategic planning process has been extremely helpful to us as we develop our vision, plan, and deployment map for the next several years. His expertise, discipline, and approaches are excellent." --Jim Bickel, President and CEO at Columbus Regional Hospital "The Affordable Care Act (ACA) looks like it is around to stay. It will require hospitals and other healthcare organizations to become ruthlessly efficient to survive reimbursement rate reductions. Even if ACA fell, managed care organizations have caught on. They will leverage patient volume to drive reimbursement rates steadily down. Medicare and Medicaid will follow. Lean Sigma may not be the only way healthcare organizations will survive, but it's a proven solution. In Lean Sigma--Rebuilding Capability in Healthcare, Dr. Wedgwood has presented a roadmap to successful implementation of Lean Sigma." --Richard H.

    Excellent transaction in every way. I couldn’t be happier with this book! The book is exactly as described and pictured in the listing. It was packaged well, so as not to get damaged during shipment. It was shipped out promptly and received ahead of schedule. I look forward to doing business with this eBay seller again in the future. Thank you so much!
