Lean Six Sigma Workflow Optimization Modular Training Available for FREE DOWNLOAD
Inefficiencies in molecular testing can be detrimental to patient care. Removing workflow-related barriers to biomarker testing can have a direct and positive impact on patient selection.
Lean Six Sigma is an approach to laboratory workflow optimization to improve diagnostic testing turnaround time and quality. The series of five modules provide training on how to use Lean Six Sigma workflow optimization to improve these features.
Module 1: Background
This module introduces Lean Six Sigma, examines how inefficiencies in molecular testing can be detrimental to patient care, and provides an example of how it can be applied in a laboratory.
Module 2: Analysis
Further modules will be released in due course.
Disclaimer: Completing these modules will not lead to a professional accreditation. They are intended to inform the reader about the principles of Lean Six Sigma, which can then be applied to molecular testing laboratories. For further disclaimers, please refer to the slides for the module.
