Healthcare Value Network
The Healthcare Value Network unites healthcare leaders who share a commitment to providing high-quality, cost-effective care through the application of lean concepts. Our members develop peer-to-peer relationships, share knowledge, conduct real-world experiments and access the best resources to accelerate their organization’s lean transformation. (Check out our white paper.) And, we’re getting results!

Together, the Center and LEI leverage their unique perspectives and 20 years of lean experience to help Network members fundamentally improve healthcare delivery.
