Chapter 1: Concepts of Quality Management

Healthcare Quality in the United States:

A Snapshot In 2003, U.S. healthcare expenditures totaled $1.679 trillion and accounted

for 15 percent of the gross domestic product (U.S. Census Bureau 2005; OECD 2005).

In 2003, the United States spent more on healthcare, as measured by percentage of gross domestic product, than did any other country in the world; yet of 30 OECD countries, the United States ranked 22nd in male life expectancy at birth and 23rd in female life expectancy at birth, and 26th in infant mortality rate (OECD Health Data 2005).

55 percent of those surveyed are dissatisfied with the quality of healthcare in the United States and 40 percent responded that in the past five years quality of care has gotten worse (Kaiser Family Foundation et al. 2004).

Adult Americans received 54.9 percent of recommended preventive care, acute care, and chronic care (McGlynn et al. 2003).

Sources: See References in Chapter 1 of Applying Quality Management in Healthcare, 2nd Edition, by D. L. Kelly.

Between 44,000 and 98,000 deaths per year in the United States have been attributed to preventable medical errors, making medical errors the eighth leading cause of death—causing more deaths than motor vehicle accidents, breast cancer, or AIDS (Kohn, Corrigan, and Donaldson 1999).

Taking into account direct costs (e.g., healthcare costs) and indirect costs

(e.g., lost income, lost productivity, and disability), preventable medical errors cost the United States between $17 billion and $29 billion a year (Kohn, Corrigan, and Donaldson 1999).

In 2003, more than 45 million Americans, or 15.6 percent of the 290 million U.S. residents at the time, had no health insurance (U.S. Census Bureau 2005).

In the United States, persons between the ages of 45 and 64 years with the lowest levels of education have 2.5 times the mortality rates of those with the highest levels of education, Poverty accounts for 6 percent of the nation’s mortality (McGinnis et al. 2002).

Chapter 4: A Systems Perspective of Quality Management

Systems thinking…

“…is a discipline for seeing wholes. It is a framework for seeing interrelationships, rather than things, for seeing patterns of change rather than static ‘snapshots’.”

--Peter Senge in The Fifth Discipline: The

Artand Practice of the LearningOrganization. 1990. New

York: Doubleday Currency.

Chapter 10: Performance Measurement

Why measure performance?

Reacting to a Problem Approach

Reacting to a Problem Approach

Poorly defined strategic and operational goals

Operations characterized by activities rather than processes

Operations reactive to immediate needs and problems

Source: Adapted from Baldrige National Quality Program Health Care Criteria for Performance Excellence. www.baldrige.gov.

Early Systematic Approach

Early Systemic Approach

Strategic and quantitative goals are beginning to be defined

Beginning stages of conducting operations by processes with repeatability, evaluation, and improvement

Early coordination among operating units

Source: Adapted from Baldrige National Quality Program Health Care Criteria for Performance Excellence. www.baldrige.gov.

Aligned Approach

Aligned Approaches

Processes address key strategies and goals of the organization

Operations are characterized by processes that are repeatable and regularly evaluated for improvement

Learning is shared and coordinated among organizational units

Source: Adapted from Baldrige National Quality Program Health Care Criteria for Performance Excellence. www.baldrige.gov.

Integrated Approach

Operations characterized repeatable processes

Operational processes regularly evaluated for change and improvement in collaboration with other affected units

Efficiencies across units are achieved through analysis, innovation, and sharing

Processes and measures track progress on key strategic and operational goals

Integrated Approach
