Note from the ACDIS Director
OIG on the airwaves, severe malnutrition denials takes center stage

by Brian Murphy

By now most CDI professionals have likely seen the July Office of Inspector General (OIG) audit report, which can be found here. If you haven’t, that link is your required reading for the week.

The report left many unanswered questions, but this week on the ACDIS Podcast we were pleased to host Joseph Girardi, CGFM, CFE, an assistant regional inspector general for audit services with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), OIG, Office of Audit Services. Girardi managed this particular audit, and added additional information and details not covered in the audit report above.
