HCCs and CDI in a Risk Adjustment World

Risk adjustment requires coding, CDI professionals, and providers to work together to ensure the capture of the most appropriate risk score. This webinar is aimed at providers looking for ways to expand CDI effort into outpatient settings and services, as well as those looking to shift focus to improve quality monitors—both of which can affect risk scores.
