Covering both CDI and coding initiatives, it examines what to review and how to engage providers from both aspects to complete the documentation picture. Track 2: Management and Strategy Thinking Outside the Box: Building an Effective and Sustainable Ambulatory CDI Program Rebecca Willcutt, RN, BSN, CCDS, CCS, CRC Ambulatory CDI is truly a "new frontier" and the process for developing a mature and sustainable program is not well understood. It is critical to develop strict definitions of exactly what you want to accomplish and what problem(s) you are trying to solve using Ambulatory CDI. This session will trace the evolution of a successful ambulatory CDI program and provide strategies to implement at your own organization. We will also discuss how to ensure administrative support and provider engagement as well as the measurement of metrics to gauge success of your program. |
