The Problem
• Hospital-acquired infections rank as the fourth leading cause of
death in America.
• The numbers are staggering: according to the CDC, two million
patients fall ill to infections in hospitals each year. More than
100,000 patients die annually as a result, which is as many as those
who die from breast cancer, AIDS and motor vehicle accidents —
combined.
• As of October 2008, Medicare no longer reimburses hospitals for
the cost of treating a number of preventable infections acquired
there (called nosocomial infections). The hospitals must take a loss,
since they also are not allowed to charge the sick patients for the
cost of treatment.
• Infections acquired through contamination are the most difficult to
treat, because they are often antibiotic-resistant.

Keyboards in Healthcare
• Researchers at Chicago's Northwestern Memorial
Hospital say computer keyboards can harbor dangerous
germs for as long as 24 hours.
• Research teams at the hospital contaminated keyboards
with three types of bacteria that can cause lifethreatening infections in severely ill hospital patients.
They found that the bacteria known as VRE and MRSA
survived for at least 24 hours, while PSAE bacteria
survived for an hour.
• When volunteers tapped a key contaminated with
MRSA, the bacteria spread to their hands 92 percent of
the time. Contamination rates are lower for the other two
bacteria -- 50 percent for VRE and 18 percent for PSAE.
Costs of HAI
• The average charges for Medicare patients with a
hospital- acquired infection were about $160,000,
compared to $32,000 for Medicare patients who did
not contract an infection.
• For Medicaid patients, the average charges were
approximately $391,000 for patients who
contracted an infection while hospitalized,
compared to an average of $29,700 where an
infection did not occur.
• Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA), a widely publicized type of antibioticresistant hospital-acquired infection, can cost
hospitals roughly $30,000 per case.
