The Silent Killer of Health Care Transformation: Being Overburdened by Too Many Choices

Writing on the Huffington Post, Beau Keyte discusses a major problem that exists in our current system of healthcare transformation and compares the process to what happens at a Brazilian steakhouse. But because of some key differences between the two, the consequences of the overloading of choices in our healthcare system are much more severe than a full belly.  Keyte is a faculty member of the Lean Enterprise Institute (LEI) and co-author of Perfecting Patient Journeys, an LEI workbook for applying lean principles in healthcare processes.
