This bill would create new programs to help hospitals prevent and treat sepsis, aiming to save lives.
This bill would create new programs at the CDC to cut down on sepsis cases and deaths. A special team would teach hospitals best practices, gather better data, and find improved ways to track patient care, all to save lives.
Today, 1.7 million Americans are identified with sepsis each year, and 350,000 die from it. Hospitals also face high costs treating this health issue. If this bill becomes law, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) would create a special team. This team would lead teaching efforts for hospitals, improve data collection on sepsis in children, and help develop better ways to measure sepsis care. This would be supported by $20 million set aside each year from the government's budget years 2026 to 2030 — roughly $0.06 per American each year.
