Career Builder: Process Improvement

Process Improvement (PI) is a business strategy that produces measurable results by focusing on opportunities within an organization to improve, simplify, and integrate work processes and procedures. The goal of PI is to dig deep enough to identify the root cause rather than focus on symptoms of the problem. This approach prevents correction of the same type of problem over and over again. Continuous process improvement of a hospital’s revenue cycle is crucial to the financial health of the organization.
