It has been asked of me if any of the hospitals in the Oregon/Southern Washington area are using an outside contracted company to complete the hospital acquired infection surveillance reviews? Can you please let me know if you still have this work inside the organization and completed by IP staff or if you have contracted this out and if so with which company? Thank you in advance for your reply.
