@ConanMacDougall@KelliePharmD@jendel0717@MAndersonIDRx@lachance_erik "Spectrum insurance"- great way of putting it! We often educate on resistance mechanisms during stewardship rounds but it's a common misconception that clav adds "something" for strep, or that amox alone is perceived as not enough/ "wimpy".
