This law was created to provide the public with fair, accurate, and reliable HAI data to compare hospital infection rates and to support quality improvement and infection prevention activities in hospitals. NYSDOH evaluates which HAI indicators should be reported annually with the help of a Technical Advisory Workgroup (TAW), a panel of experts in the prevention and reporting of HAIs. In 2007, hospitals were required to report central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) in intensive care units (ICUs) and surgical site infections (SSIs) following colon and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgeries. In 2008, hip replacement SSIs were added; in 2010, Clostridium difficile (CDI) infections were added; in 2012, abdominal hysterectomy SSIs were added; and in 2014, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections were added. In addition to reporting the HAI data mandated by NYS, hospitals enter data into NHSN for federal programs, regional collaboratives, and local surveillance. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) Program provides higher reimbursement to hospitals that report certain types of HAI data, including catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia. In addition, the CMS Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program provides incentive payments to hospitals based on how well they perform on certain HAI measures. NYS entered into a data use agreement (DUA) with CDC that allows NYS to see all NHSN data for surveillance or prevention purposes. The DUA implemented in May 2013 prohibits the use of the data for public reporting of facility-specific data or for regulatory action. More information about the DUA is available on the CDC website http://www.cdc.gov/hai/pdfs/stateplans/New- York_DUA.pdf. Table 1 summarizes the progression of NYS reporting requirements through 2015 and includes additional data visible through the DUA. 3 Table 1. Hospital-acquired infections reported by New York State hospitals, by year Type of Infection 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Central line-associated bloodstream infections in ICUs P1 Colon surgical site infections P1 Coronary artery bypass graft surgical site infections P1 Hip replacement surgical site infections Clostridium difficile infections P2 Abdominal hysterectomy surgical site infections Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infections P2 Central line-associated bloodstream infections in wards DUA DUA Catheter-associated urinary tract infections DUA DUA DUA Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia DUA DUA DUA = full reporting (publish hospital-specific rates) P1= pilot reporting full year (do not publish hospital-specific rates) P2= pilot reporting half year from July (do not publish hospital-specific rates) DUA = Not required by New York, but reported for Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Inpatient Prospective Payment System and visible through data use agreement between CDC and NYS beginning May 2013. This report focuses on HAI rates in NYS hospitals in 2015. The detailed information is primarily intended for use by hospital Infection Preventionists (IPs), but it may also be used by others who want more detailed information than is available in “Part 1: Summary for Consumers”. CDC HAI surveillance definitions have changed over time so that it is no longer possible to accurately quantify progress since the onset of NYS reporting in 2007. CDC has declared that 2015 is the new “baseline” for assessment of trends in coming years (http://www.cdc.gov/nhsn/2015rebaseline/index.html). NYS will also consider 2015 to be a new baseline for assessment of trends until surveillance definitions change such that the comparisons are no longer valid, or until policy changes require a new baseline. Crude trend plots have been included in this report for transparency regarding how HAI counts in 2015 compared to counts in previous years, but the valid interpretation of these plots is limited by the degree of changes to the definitions. 4 Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) For each type of SSI, the following pages present detailed information on the severity (depth) of infections, the circumstance of detection (initial hospitalization, readmission, etc.), the microorganisms involved, and time trends. In addition, detailed plots show each individual hospital’s risk-adjusted infection rates compared to the state average. SSIs are categorized into three groups depending on the severity of the infection: Superficial Incisional SSI - This infection occurs in the area of the skin where the surgical incision was made. The patient may have pus draining from the incision or laboratory-identified pathogens from cultures of the incision. Deep Incisional SSI - This infection occurs beneath the incision in muscle tissue. Pus may drain from the incision, and patients may experience fever and pain. The

  • October 5, 2016 Veronique Hakim President, New York City Transit
    UNITED STATES HOUSE THE NEW YORK THE NEW YORK THE COUNCIL OF THE OF REPRESENTATIVES STATE SENATE STATE ASSEMBLY CITY OF NEW YORK October 5, 2016 Veronique Hakim President, New York City Transit Metropolitan Transportation Authority 2 Broadway New York, NY 1004 Dear President Hakim, Please restore the M15 Select Bus Service at 72nd Street. The M15 Limited stopped at 72nd Street until it was phased out in favor of M15 Select Bus Service. With high bus-dependent populations, infrequent local service, crosstown bus service, hospitals, community support and opening of the Second Avenue Subway with a station at 72nd Street, now is the perfect opportunity to increase ridership by restoring M15 Select Bus Service at 72nd Street. 72nd Street Only Location Omitted from Select Bus Service When Select Bus Service was introduced to First and Second Avenues on the M15 route, Select Bus Stations replaced Limited Service stops in every location above Houston Street other than East 72nd Street. Since October 2010, residents living in the East 72nd Street area, for example at 73rd off York Avenue, now must choose between walking three avenues and six blocks, more than half a mile, to a Select Bus Service bus station at 67th or 79th Streets and Second Avenue, versus half that distance to 72nd Street. Walking more than half a mile in both directions is simply too far for many residents. High Concentration of Seniors and Children Need Select Bus Service at 72nd Street The neighborhood that would be served by a Select Bus Service station at 72nd Street includes Census Tracts in Manhattan number 124, 126, 132, and 134 spanning from 69th to 79th between 3rd Avenue and the East River with a population of 44,756, one of the highest near any Select Bus station: 8,679 or 32.7% of households include children (under 18) or seniors (65 and over) who may rely on bus service due to age: o 3,326 or 12.5% of households have children under 18 years-old.

  • Bus Rapid Transit for New York City
    Bus Rapid Transit For New York City Prepared for Transportation Alternatives NYPIRG Straphangers Campaign June 2002 Schaller Consulting 94 Windsor Place, Brooklyn, NY (718) 768-3487 [email protected] www.schallerconsult.com Summary New York City has the slowest bus service in America. NYC Transit buses travel at an average speed of 7.5 mph. On bus routes such as the M96, M23, M15, Q32, BX35 and B63, the average speed is 6 mph or less. That buses are traveling in slow motion is obvious to everyone, especially riders, who rank it the most serious problem with bus service. Slow bus service discourages people from taking buses, especially for work trips where travel time is critical. Slow bus service contributes to very long travel times to work in New York City, as shown by the latest census. Bus service is slow for many reasons. Traffic congestion is clearly a major factor. But other problems are just as important: • Buses spend as much as 30% of their time waiting for passengers to board and exit. • Increased crowding on buses due to ridership growth has lengthened delays from boarding and exiting. • Traffic signals are not synchronized with bus speeds, so buses are delayed by red lights between bus stops. • Drivers often have to slow down to stay on schedule even when traffic is light. • Bus field supervisors lack the tools to prevent bus bunching. SCHALLER CONSULTING 1 Summary (cont.) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a promising strategy for improving bus service. By applying features used in rail service to bus service, BRT can make buses faster, more reliable and more attractive.

As you know, Department of District Manager Transportation (DOT) requires Tour Bus drivers to travel along New York City truck routes except when local bus routes or other roads are needed to reach their destinations. As your know, with the installation of the M23 SBS a majority of the left turns on West 23rd Street, a truck route, have been banned. As a result, tour buses coming from the High Line or Chelsea Piers are now using residential side streets from Tenth Avenue to Eighth Avenue to reach Eighth Avenue. As a result, the buses are creating congestion and are a major impediment to the local traffic on these narrow residential streets. In addition, there are safety concerns for the many schools along these blocks when children use the streets to enter and exit the schools. The volume of bus traffic is significant enough to be brought to the Transportation Committee’s attention and raised in the last month’s District Service Cabinet meeting.
