Antibiotic stewardship programs, which promote the appropriate use of antibiotics in hospitals and other healthcare centers, can not only lead to reduction in antibiotic use with no adverse effects but can also lead to significant savings, over $600,000 annually in the case of one New York Hospital. Participants will discuss case studies of two such programs. #ICAAC #ASMLive Special guests: Bill Sheridan, BioCryst Rich Whitley, University of Alabama at Birmingham
