Xerox Driving Efficiency Through Lean Six Sigma-based Document Management System
Posted by: meikah | 28 February 2008 | 9:24 pm
Xerox Corporation, the leader in document management, is helping its clients save costs and streamline processes through its Lean Six Sigma-based document management system.
Among the ones most benefitted by this assessment methodology are the healthcare providers. Healthcare processes battle every day with paperwork, thus document management is really crucial. But by streamlining document-driven business processes, healthcare providers are achieving cost savings, ensuring regulatory compliance and realizing productivity gains.
According to Valerie Mason Cunningham, VP for Healthcare Industry, Xerox Global Services, “Patient records, healthcare forms, insurance regulations…all those documents can be hard to manage, whether they are in paper or electronic form. Healthcare executives who have a sound document management strategy will be the leaders in the industry to combat the barrage of economic and regulatory challenges. Xerox is poised to help them succeed.”
Three big healthcare providers that claim to have been benefitted by Xerox’s Lean Six Sigma-based document management system are:
Baptist St. Anthony’s Health System through Lean Six Sigma-based Xerox Office Productivity Assessment - achieving brand consistency throughout its 16 healthcare locations. Documents and forms are standardized for ordering and are now printed on-demand, eliminating waste and reducing costs.
Foote Health System through Xerox Document Advisors and Xerox ReqDirect™ Plus - enhanced worker productivity, eliminated warehousing of obsolete and out-of-date forms and helped address the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations’ document standards.
Physicians Endoscopy, L.L.C. through Xerox DocuShare™ and Xerox DocuShare CPX 6.0 - said good-bye to file cabinets and hello to improved productivity, bringing us closer to reaching our corporate paperless initiative.
