Next week, I am giving a 45 minute presentation via the Sepsis Alliance, on the topic, "Medicare Approach to Sepsis and Quality of Care: What You Need to Know."
The talk focuses on the SEP-1 quality measure for hospitals, but puts this in the background of its history, CMS policymaking around quality measures, and specific recent debates. The live presentation is August 26 at 2:00 eastern. The link is here.
