What is the National Special Pathogen System (NSPS)?

The NSPS consists of a tiered System of Care, made up of health care facilities across the country, and is operationalized by the National Emerging Special Pathogens Training and Education Center (NETEC) as its Coordinating Body. The mission of the NSPS is to develop a coordinated network of high-quality special pathogen care dedicated to protecting patients, communities, and the health care workforce in the United States.
