I was fortunate to be an invited speaker at the 2016 ECCMID meeting in Amsterdam last week. My topic was "Monitoring Process of Care: Do We Need Big Brother?" I used the opportunity to take a big picture view of public reporting of HAI and MDRO data in the US and Europe and a closer look at the selection of process versus outcomes measures for reporting. I've posted my slides below and you can also listen to my talk on ECCMID's website. As I believe Dan stated earlier, I hope that all meetings evolve to allow free/open access to presentations like ECCMID has.
