Your facility has been selected to participate in this QIA, based on the semi-annual pooled mean rates reported in NHSN for your facility during the baseline period (January through June 2017).
All facilities that have a 15% or greater long-term catheter use rate as of June 2017 will also be requires to participate in activities to reduce the use of LTCs.
All facilities in this project are being encouraged to enroll in a healthcare information exchange platform.
