[Sepsis Groups] Core Measures for Sepsis

2017-08-09 Thread Tracie Hopkins

Hello,
Does anyone know where I can find the details for Core Measure for Sepsis? Not 
what they are-but the threshold for payment? Is it just SEP-1 or is each 
element measured for compliance & payment?  What percentage is required?   I 
thought it might be in the 5.3 version-but cannot find the specifics for 
reimbursement.  Any information you can share would be appreciated.  Our 
compliance rate is just over 50% & am planning on next steps to improve our 
numbers.  Knowing the financial impact will help gain support.  Thank you-

[Sepsis Groups] Evaluation for Severe Sepsis Screening Tool HMH revised

2017-08-09 Thread Pamela Green
After meeting with HIM and coding yesterday it was brought to my attention that 
the Lab normal range high is 2. Our screening form had only the > 4 mmol/L 
under #3. Criteria for Severe Sepsis. So I went back to the original form the 
actual value is supposed to be >2 . The edited form had the wrong  value of >4. 
So I have made that change on the screening form as indicated. I also, have a 
question out to the Sepsis Groups to understand how other facilities are using 
this measurement. Please make copies for your dept. and make changes to your 
existing forms thanks. Pam
