Most hospitals lose money on every sepsis case. But that does not have to be the case for your hospital.
There is a large and growing body of evidence that CMS's multi-step quality measure—SEP-1 bundle—has delivered improvements to quality and financial performance, including lower LOS, utilization of high-cost services, mortality, and readmissions.
This executive brief is from a recent Becker's CEO + CFO Roundtable Webinar which covered the following:
- Sepsis care as a major driver for quality and financial performance
- How high-quality sepsis surveillance can help bedside teams address burnout and fatigue
- How a comprehensive approach to sepsis improvement can drive significant ROI
- One customer’s story to drive more than a $1 million reduction in annualized length of stay costs by improving sepsis bundle compliance
Improving sepsis care requires a broad cross-functional program with three key areas – applied equally and consistently – the right balance of People, Process and Technology, like Sentri7® Sepsis Monitor, are key to sustaining sepsis program and hospital performance improvements for sepsis care.
