Advancing Quality Measurement & Improvement

Sepsis

Sepsis bundle compliance is challenging, and now that the impact of reimbursement is even greater, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Sepsis 360 was developed to combine concurrent and retrospective clinical data review, documentation improvement, and expert-led education into one integrated offering. The result: accelerated identification of improvement opportunities and long-term gains in both clinical outcomes and compliance performance.

• Concurrent Review: Clinical data experts analyze newly admitted patients daily to identify protocol adherence and documentation gaps while patients are still in your care. Actionable data is delivered to care teams within 24 hours to support timely interventions and accurate provider documentation.

• Retrospective Review: After discharge, access high-fidelity, CMS-ready sepsis data to ensure accurate abstraction and timely submission for compliance, reimbursement, and industry ratings.

• Documentation Improvement and Education: Q-Centrix experts work directly with your team to surface insights from both concurrent and retrospective reviews. Through a monthly cadence, we deliver performance reports, highlight trends, and guide committee meetings with targeted education and improvement planning.
