Patient harm events: hospital-onset bacteremia vs CMS-reportable events

National Healthcare Safety Network developed a hospital-onset bacteremia (HOB) reporting module which may be used for Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)-reimbursement in the future. This retrospective study compared CMS-reported, HOB, and Overlap events. There were twice as many HOB as CMS events, but >40% of HOB were due to infections that lack defined infection prevention practices.

Abstract

National Healthcare Safety Network developed a hospital-onset bacteremia (HOB) reporting module which may be used for Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)-reimbursement in the future. This retrospective study compared CMS-reported, HOB, and Overlap events. There were twice as many HOB as CMS events, but >40% of HOB were due to infections that lack defined infection prevention practices.
