Thanks David 
That was response I was looking for from CMS....I think someone needs to  
tell the RACs that!

Good  Day 
Let’s  not forget that the proposed Sepsis-3 definition has NOT been 
endorsed by the  American College of Chest Physicians, Infectious Disease 
Society 
of  America,  ANY of the Emergency Medicine Societies nor ANY of the 
Hospital  Medicine Societies.  
In  fact, the American College of Chest Physicians has issued a strong 
statement  against the Sepsis-3 definition in a manuscript called “New Sepsis 
Criteria: A  Change We Should Not Make” and calls for reconvening the 
conference with a  broader base of constituents, including hospitalist and 
emergency 
medicine  physicians.  
I  do think this last iteration of sepsis (Sepsis-3) will undergo more 
research  and modification before its endorsed by more of the major medicine 
societies  and CMS.
