From the first in-person APIC Annual Conference in three years, Karl Baker, Senior VP of Sales and Marketing at Perfect Clean, recognized how vital in-person interactions are to collaboration and networking. “Networking in person, which hasn’t been possible in the virtual forums,” explained Baker.

In the event’s 50th year, Lurlie Moro, SE Regional Manager of Perfect Clean, said, “it’s a critical meeting to gather all infection preventionists to gather their knowledge.” Perfect Clean joined the event as a strategic partner this year. APIC does a great job of bringing people together. Baker said that “commitment to excellence and their recognition of excellence” is fundamental to making the conference what it is.

Baker and Moro witnessed trends in the work of infection prevention, the crossover of departments for collaboration, and support for their teams in the wake of the pandemic. Baker said, “there’s a lot more focus on recognizing the work behind the scenes they have put in place.”

Perfect Clean focused on connecting with clients, collaborating with partners, and showcasing products. UMF Corporation’s products include PerfectCLEAN, Micrillon, PCIPAD, LENStronic, and the C-PULL. These products are designed to reduce preventative HAI’s (healthcare-acquired infections) and are deployed using an ONEperROOM methodology which is designed to prevent patient room-to-room cross-contamination.

Moro wanted clients to take away that the Perfect Clean product line has been tried and tested. “[This year] we’re focusing on what we offer is rooted in science,” said Moro. It’s evidence-based and backed by third-party testing to prove effectiveness. This was critical, in addition to showing potential clients that their products are practical and easy to use and implement.

Most reprocessing audit gaps trace back to training, turnover and leadership

Most reprocessing audit gaps trace back to training, turnover and leadership

Joint Commission findings on its reprocessing standard point mostly to training, turnover, leadership and missing ownership, not sterilizers. CDC epidemiologists and a 2019 review add cleaning verification and manufacturer instructions as the steps to watch. Audit people and process steps as closely as the autoclave.

  • 01Of the Joint Commission's list of reasons hospitals miss reprocessing standard IC.02.02.01, at least eight concern people, priorities and management, so competency records and a named process owner belong in the audit as much as sterilizer logs.
  • 02A structured audit tool that scores compliance step by step, as a 2020 BMC Health Services Research study did across 189 reprocessing cycles, shows where training hours should go; the Nepal hospitals scored best on cleaning and storage and worse on the steps between.

From Data to Decisions: Leadership, Trust, and AI in Healthcare with Dr. Julia Rehman

Healthcare leaders often struggle to convert abundant data and AI investments into actionable decisions that improve care. Dr. Julia Rehman emphasizes that effective AI integration requires human judgment in the loop, strong governance frameworks, and frontline staff engagement, especially in resource-constrained settings.

  • 01AI should target specific operational challenges like staffing, readmissions, and bed capacity, with humans retaining decision-making authority.
  • 02Few healthcare organizations have governance structures to ensure accountability, audit trails, bias monitoring, and oversight as AI adoption accelerates.
  • 03Data richness without strategic insight and human judgment informed by experience limits the value of technology investments in healthcare.

Two Radiology Deals Signal Focus on Coverage, Not Scanners

Two Radiology Deals Signal Focus on Coverage, Not Scanners

Colorado Imaging Associates and TRA Medical Imaging announced Sept. 8, 2026 that they are forming Affiliated Radiology to expand physician coverage for a shared health system client, Radiology Business reported. Separately, Align Capital Partners said in late May 2026 it agreed to acquire Boise-based Heritage Imaging, a mobile diagnostic imaging provider operating in 14 states, according to Radiology Business.

  • 01Affiliated Radiology was formed by combining Colorado Imaging Associates and TRA Medical Imaging to expand physician coverage for a shared health system client.
  • 02Heritage Imaging operates mobile diagnostic units across 14 states, providing PET-CT, MRI, nuclear medicine, ultrasound and echocardiography to critical access hospitals and community clinics.
  • 03Health system sourcing teams should request service-level commitments, credentialing procedures, cross-location read routing, and PACS/RIS/EHR integration details before contracting with coverage-focused or mobile imaging arrangements.
