Six Sigma Methodology

What is Six Sigma?

Six Sigma stands for Six Standard Deviations (Sigma is the Greek letter used to represent standard deviation in statistics) from mean. Six Sigma methodology provides the techniques and tools to improve the capability and reduce the defects in any process.

Six Sigma methodology improves any existing business process by constantly reviewing and re-tuning the process.  To achieve this, Six Sigma uses a methodology known as DMAIC ( D efine opportunities, M easure performance, A nalyze opportunity, I mprove performance, C ontrol performance).

Six Sigma implementation at MediXperts

Six Sigma methodology has been used at MediXperts to create a Healthcare Business Process using DFSS ( Design For Six Sigma ) principles. We have rigorous implementation of DMAIC tools.

Six Sigma experts at MediXperts evaluate a business process and determine ways to improve upon the existing process. They design a new process for a client using DFSS principles. MediXperts' team incorporates the  basic principles and techniques of Business, Statistics, and Engineering to Healthcare Business Process.

Some highlights of our Six Sigma approach are -

• Holistic approach.
• Kaizen's self-improvement technique for continuous improvement of the process.
• Other Six Sigma Tools -
  • Process Mapping.
  • FEMA.
  • Fish bone diagram, etc.

With help of Six Sigma, MediXperts strives for perfection. Six Sigma allows for only 3.4 defects per million opportunities for each transaction.

That is how MediXperts improves the process performance, decreases variation and maintains consistent quality of the process output. This leads to defect reduction and improvement in profits, product quality and customer satisfaction.
