Fundamental Value

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.

Asymmetric Quality Loss

The asymmetric quality loss functions with the triangular distribution for determining the optimum process mean are studied. The condition of using the linear and quadratic asymmetric quality loss function in the model is considered. The eight mathematical models under an asymmetric quality loss function with the triangular distribution based on the analysis of the linear and quadratic asymmetric quality loss function are presented. Finally, the validity of models is verified by the examples.
