At a recent conference of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Dr. Sara Cosgrove, associate hospital epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, spoke about the role finance plays in fighting health care-acquired infections. In this podcast, Cosgrove discusses the financial impact of HAIs—particularly those caused by multidrug-resistant organisms, or MDROs. She also talks about the challenges hospital administrators and infection control practitioners (ICPs) face in funding infection control programs, as well as tools they can use for overcoming those challenges.
