To find innovative solutions, LTC pharmacy leaders can leverage Lean Six Sigma (LSS) management techniques to improve the customer experience while enhancing profitability. Applied to targeted projects of diverse size and complexity, LSS provides a structured approach that enables LTC pharmacies to:
- Reduce lead times
- Add capacity – without adding cost
- Ensure accurate, on-time deliveries
- Enhance capacity by improving efficiency
- Maximize use of available space
- Balance workflows
- Stabilize processes
At Cardinal Health™ Operational Excellence (OpEx) Consulting, we offer a proven LSS methodology to develop customized solutions that meet the unique needs of your LTC operations.
