Abstract

The purpose is to use data in order to improve outpatient operations through various methodology. Although the sections are based on different specialties, all of them are aligned through improving the current environment. The first project worked to improve shortages especially in the space of medical assistants. The second project proposed a water filtration system in order to reduce cost and waste to the system. The third project strategized ways to decrease traffic to the Oakland offices to improve access. All projects are long-term in nature, and due to the short-term successes, will continue forward. All are significant as they work to improve revenue and access while decreasing the cost burden that an organization takes on. All projects address issues that have been increasingly important in the days after the height of the pandemic which includes improving access, decreasing waste, and addressing workforce shortages. They utilize the data to create strategies to improve these areas of opportunity for the organization. This is important as it is a clear, unbiased, and reliable way to create a strategical method.
