Infection Control

 

Each Year, Hospital Aquired Infections:

  • Cost our healthcare $7.5 Billion      
  • Affect nearly 1.7 million patients
  • Cause 99,000 deaths

These figures are estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). And, the latest ruling from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) indicates they will no longer reimburse for certain hospital-acquired infections, the implication for hospitals is they will have to absorb these additional treatment costs.With escalating expenses and decreasing reimbursement, our healthcare system is looking to medical device manufacturers to bring them technology that will help prevent infections and reduce costs.
