Summary
Health Net is encouraging hospitals to improve patient safety metrics and participate in 2025 Honor Rolls, including a new focus on substance use disorder (SUD) care. The policy provides resources and emphasizes specific infection prevention measures and sepsis care standards.
Action Required
By April 1, 2025: Hospital quality teams should review the new SUD self-assessment tool on Cal Hospital Compare and prepare for the expanded Opioid Care and SUD Honor Roll application window. Infection control teams should assess performance on CAUTI, CLABSI, C. diff, SSI-colon, MRSA, and SEP-1 metrics using HSAG resources.
