Of the following process improvement methodologies, which MOST directly engages the customer in the process?

This question aligns with Design and Innovation , which focuses on creating solutions that are human-centered and co-designed with patients and families. Experience-Based Design (EBD) is the methodology that most directly engages the customer (patient) in the improvement process. EBD emphasizes co-design , where patients, families, and staff work together to understand experiences and redesign services based on real needs and emotions. In contrast, Lean, Six Sigma, and Total Quality Management primarily focus on efficiency, variation reduction, and process control, often relying more on internal analysis than direct customer involvement. CPXP highlights that meaningful patient experience improvement requires actively partnering with patients , making EBD the most aligned approach for directly engaging customers in designing better care experiences.
