OK but could be better
An awful lot about how to use the author's software. This also makes the book more tool-focused than I think a healthcare book on this subject needs to be. There are a lot of statistical data showing how seriously broken the USA's healthcare system is, but not enough showing actual improvement results within a given facility.

Fantastic book! It's not often that I find myself reading with a highlighter in hand getting motivated to go back to work and apply some of what I've just read. This book however did exactly that!The other reviews that mention that it's a sales pitch for QI Macros have some truth... they are mentioned in every chapter. That being said, they Macros are essential to "practicing what he preaches." They allow you to now have to go to weeks of six sigma training in order to implement a few of the key tools and find success as a "money belt."The book is a very easy read and well written and edited. I read it in a weekend.

Decent book
This book is reasonable and a quick overview, but my no means an extensive or indepth analysis of the process or how to execute Lean Six Sigma. Ok for beginners, but you will need another book for a more details and to walk you through the process.

Well,
It was not what I was looking for. I needed something more solid in its theories and this is more like a how to step by step. And if you know six sigma at all, you know that you need more than that for the board to buy it. In any case there are far better books o better yet invest in the yellow belt like I did. It is wort the money.

Great resource!
Great book for applying the tools of lean & six sigma to the healthcare industry. Very useful for my work in hospital quality improvement.

Too much infomercial
Some good info -- if you're the CEO and can actually change things in the hospital --interspersed with way too many f plugs for SaaS solution by the book's author. A lot of the material could have been explained without trying to force you to lease it.
