If you’re going to meet with success in the CDI profession, engagement is a must. You need an engaged CDI staff to succeed, an engaged HIM/coding department, and most of all you need provider engagement. If physicians don’t know what’s in it for them, you’re fighting an uphill battle. Success at that level requires initiative and a willingness to go the extra mile, but the rewards can be substantial. Tell us your favorite success story—large or small, we love them all.Visit our ACDIS Facebook page to see our giveaway of the week! Reserve Your Seat Today and Save Up to $200!

Outpatient CDI: Tools, Strategies for Success Clinical documentation integrity efforts have moved beyond the traditional inpatient hospital setting. Healthcare systems now include short-term acute care facilities but also an array of outpatient venues from radiology centers to physician practices. These settings all have unique clinical and coding focus areas and the rules governing code assignment on the inpatient side only partially apply. Those seeking to expand to these new setting types need to not only understand how these differences come into play but also how to establish CDI program parameters. Join expert Shannon E. McCall, RHIA, CCS, CCS-P, CPC, CPC-I, CEMC, CRC, CCDS, and Jennifer Boles, CPC, CRC for this two day pre-conference.

CDI Management Essentials Effective management of a CDI department is not for the faint of heart. It requires knowledge of audit and compliance initiatives, metrics, and the revenue cycle, balanced with the hard to learn “soft skills” of staff management, including onboarding and training, developing career ladders, and change management. It also requires knowledge of how to build a business case for smart expansion into new service lines. The CDI Management Essentials pre-conference event will help you learn the skills to become a better manager, improve hospital and department performance, and increase the satisfaction and retention of your valuable CDI staff reviewers.
