Hello John,

BIG NEWS! Our new 2020 ACDIS Pocket Guide is launching in November, and I wanted to make sure you knew all the latest details and updates.

The 2020 ACDIS Pocket Guideis co-authored by trusted ACDIS experts, Laurie Prescott, RN, MSN, CCDS, CDIP, CRC, CCDS-O, CDI Education Director for ACDIS, and Dr. James Manz, MD, CCDS-O, a consultant in spine and neurological surgery with the Mayo Clinic Health system. Dr. Manz also serves as a member of the Certified Clinical Documentation Specialist-Outpatient (CCDS-O) committee for ACDIS.

This must-have resource is divided into six sections:

• Regulatory/coding guidance
• IPPS reimbursement updates, including DRG and CC/MCC updates
• Compliant query best practices and standards
• Clinical validation and diagnostic definitions
• Comorbidity list
• MS-DRG list

The majority of the pocket guide is dedicated to clinical validation and diagnostic definitions, which includes an expansive listing of diagnoses significant to CDI practice.

Conditions covered are organized by their Major Diagnostic Category (MDC), AND then in alphabetical order. Each diagnosis listed is accompanied by a detailed clinical definition of the condition, clinical indicators that support the presenting condition, including diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, ICD-10-CM chapter-specific documentation requirements, including the latest coding clinic guidance specific to the condition, CDI critical thinking tips and provider focused education advice related to the diagnoses.
 

And, as a special offer, now through the end of October, order your copy, and we'll give you access to one of our most popular on-demand webinars for FREE!!
