  1. MedPage Today at 10: Where We Have Been. Sometimes things go so right, that you get nervous. Really nervous. That’s pretty much what happened when MedPage Today launched 10 years ago.
  2. Sepsis Readmissions May Be Correctable. It might be possible to prevent many of the hospital readmissions that occur after treatment for severe sepsis.
  3. Medicare Launching New ACO Program. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is launching a “Next Generation” accountable care organization (ACO) that the agency hopes will be more attractive to Medicare providers.
  4. Hospitals Struggling To Improve Patient Satisfaction. Lillie Robinson came to Rowan Medical Center for surgery on her left foot. She expected to be in and out in a day, returning weeks later for her surgeon to operate on the other foot.
