Attend one of the following courses:
Beyond Hospital Walls: CDI Expansion Across the Health System
May 19-20, 2019
Healthcare is rapidly changing from fee-for-service to pay-for-performance and risk adjusted payment. CDI can no longer afford to focus solely on its original inpatient model when care is increasingly delivered in outpatient settings and services, or tied to bundled payment methodologies, mandatory CMS quality programs, and Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCCs).
This workshop takes a deep dive into CDI’s role across the care continuum, as well as risk adjusted payment methodologies and CMS quality programs including Hospital Value Based Purchasing, the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, Bundled Payments for Care Improvement-Advanced, and the Hospital Acquired Condition Reduction Program. This two-day session covers far more than just theory: Expert presenters review concrete ways in which CDI specialists can make an impact, including must-know coding guidelines and how to implement a risk adjustment approach to your existing CDI department.
CDI Management Essentials
May 19-20, 2019
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. This 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.
The Physician Advisor's Role in CDI
May 19-20, 2019
CDI success hinges upon a successful partnership with physicians, with the CDI physician advisor the critical link between clinical documentation and clinical care. Join us for The Physician Advisor’s Role in CDI, the nation’s only event dedicated to the physician advisor to CDI.
Our most popular workshop returns for its eighth straight year, with all new content delivered by some of the best physician advisors and educators in the country. On day 1 attendees receive a heavy dose of critical coding, clinical, and regulatory updates by regulatory guru James Kennedy, MD, followed by a denials workshop by Trey LaCharite, MD, featuring effective appeals and denials prevention strategies. New this year -- a hands-on, small group workshop reviewing actual denied cases.
