From an article in today's Chicago Tribune.CHICAGO (AP) — Deadly blood infections persist in Illinois' understaffed nursing homes, according to a joint news investigation.

The Chicago Tribune and Kaiser Health News found that about 6,000 Illinois nursing home residents a year who were hospitalized had sepsis, a bloodstream infection that can quickly turn fatal if not if not cared for properly. About 1 in 5 didn't survive, according to an analysis conducted for KHN by Definitive Healthcare, a private health care data firm.
Medicare pays Illinois hospitals more than $100 million annually for treatment of nursing home residents for sepsis, according to an analysis of Medicare claims.
