CDI professionals are often compared to investigators—searching through patient records for missing pieces and assembling the full picture of the patient’s condition through the query process. While that analogy stands, when I speak with CDI professionals nationwide about their roles, I’m often struck by a different thought. CDI professionals—you—are really both the educators and the students. This profession requires that a love for learning and you helping others learn too.
