Using the quadratic loss function is one way to quantify a fundamental value in the provision of health care services: we must provide the best care and best service to every patient, every time. Sole reliance on specification limits leads to a focus on “acceptable” performance rather than “ideal” performance. This paper presents the application of the quadratic loss function to quantify improvement opportunities in the healthcare industry.
