Health Services Advisory Group (HSAG), the Medicare Quality Innovation Network–Quality Improvement Organization
(QIN-QIO) for California, is expanding our work in ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) to help eradicate surgical infections. HSAG is broadening our focus from clean hands and safe injection best practices to include a comprehensive approach for surgical infection reduction in ASCs. In keeping with this expanded effort, and to more adequately describe our increased scope of work, we are revising our brand from the “Clean Hands—Safe Injections Initiative,” to “
Knock Out Infections—ASC Infection Prevention Initiative
.” Look for the new brand and logo in upcoming communications.
SAME GREAT PARTNERS
HSAG will continue working with our statewide partners to identify, share, and encourage adoption of evidence-based best practices while providing the assistance you need to impact surgical infections.
