When states implement evidence-based sepsis protocols, they achieve remarkable results: one state saw a 21% reduction in adult sepsis deaths and 40% reduction in pediatric deaths, saving over 16,000 lives. In this episode, Novant Health's sepsis care director Dr. Daniel Feinstein and public policy leader Elizabeth Outten share groundbreaking research on successful state-level interventions that align medical expertise with insurance coverage. They explore proven policy solutions and the tremendous opportunity for the Carolinas and other states to adopt life-saving sepsis protocols that benefit patients and providers and our system more broadly.
