Eight Categories of Waste (in Healthcare)
Overproduction Waiting Excess Motion Excess Conveyance Over-processing Inventory Defects Unused Creativity

Fall 2009 ISE 491 Dr. Burtner Lecture 5 Slide 3
Overproduction (Unnecessary Services)
Producing work or providing a service before it is required or requested
Some Elimination Strategies Establish continuous work flow in terms of product or
service needed at the appropriate time (for the downstream customer)
Create visual controls to prevent early processing of information or services
Ensure information is only entered into one common database for authorized users
Create checklists to ensure all necessary information is collected at the appropriate time
Ensure email distribution lists and reports are distributed to necessary staff only

Waiting
Waiting for people, equipment, signatures, supplies, information, etc.
Some Elimination Strategies Review and standardize signature and approval
requirements. Cross-train staff to accommodate changes in service
demands Balance workloads throughout the day and ensure staff
members are working optimally. Ensure equipment and supplies are located in close
proximity to their required use. Ensure work items are labeled and a point-of-use (as
appropriate)

Fall 2009 ISE 491 Dr. Burtner Lecture 5 Slide 5
Excess Motion
Excess movement of people, equipment, paperwork, electronic communication that does not add value
Some Elimination Strategies Ensure supply areas are well organized utilizing color codes
and labels for quick access Organize computer files for easy retrieval Establish file naming conventions within departments Establish standards of communication ensuring doctor’s
orders and charts are easily accessible for authorized staff. Relocate staff, equipment, to closest area that requires
service

Fall 2009 ISE 491 Dr. Burtner Lecture 5 Slide 6
Excessive Conveyance (Excessive Transportation)
Delivering work products without adding value In the healthcare environment, the patient is a “work
product” that flows through the system Examples
Delivery of equipment too early or too late Transporting patients to surgery prematurely Moving samples or specimens to the wrong location “Placing a gurney in the hall and constantly having to more
it”

Fall 2009 ISE 491 Dr. Burtner Lecture 5 Slide 7
Overprocessing
Putting work into accomplishing something that the patient, physician, or healthcare provider either does not ask for or does not want
Results in non-value added work that the customer does not want to pay for
Examples Retesting (eg. Performing a second 24-hour urine test
because a staff member obtained the first specimen incorrectly)
Ordering more diagnostic tests than the diagnosis warrants (eg. ordering a Chem 24 when a Chem 6 will suffice
Entering repetitive form information Completing excessive paperwork

Fall 2009 ISE 491 Dr. Burtner Lecture 5 Slide 8
Inventory
Excess or outdated supplies; excess work piles Elimination of inventory frees up space and makes it
easier to find essential items quickly Examples
Duplicate medications and supplies in excess of normal usage
Obsolete office equipment Excessive office supplies Obsolete charts, files, and medical equipment Extra or outdated manuals, newsletters, or magazines

Defects
Also known as mistakes or errors
Defect waste includes all processing required to correct a defect or mistake
It takes less time to do it right the first time than to discover and correct the mistakes
Examples Medication errors Incorrect patient information Incorrect procedure Missing information Redraws

Fall 2009 ISE 491 Dr. Burtner Lecture 5 Slide 10
Unused Creativity
Not utilizing the available talents and skills of the staff to their fullest
Examples Insufficient cross-training of staff
Reluctance to elicit process improvement ideas from workers closest to the process
Design of policies, procedures, and practices without sufficient input from workers
