Memorial Health System — a nonprofit, four-hospital system based in Springfield, Ill. — looked to re-engineer their structures, find new ways to engage with medical staff, and ultimately inform the training of next-generation physicians and health care professionals to build a sustainable path. To do this, they adopted a Lean Six Sigma approach and after a span of 6 years and over 300 Lean Six Sigma improvement projects, nearly $30 million in positive financial impact had transformed the Memorial culture.
