Upcoming CDI Boot Camp

Risk Adjustment Documentation and Coding Boot Camp

From the 2016 ACDIS Conference speaking duo that brought you a boxing duel, join Shannon E. McCall, RHIA, CCS, CCS-P, CPC, CPC-I, CEMC, CCDS, and Laurie L. Prescott, MSN, RN, CCDS, CDIP, for the very first class of this new CDI and coding boot camp. One-time only, they both will be on hand to teach this course, combining their wealth of real world and healthcare training experience.

The Risk Adjustment Coding and Documentation Boot Camp explores where coding information may be obtained, as well as where to look for documentation deficiencies to improve overall risk scores. Similar to how implementing clinical documentation improvement (CDI) departments improves documentation for DRG assignment, this Boot Camp uses the same principles to improve documentation for risk adjustment. It will take you all the way from tackling the concept of risk adjustment and how it is calculated, to focusing on specific diagnoses and conditions that may affect overall risk scores. It will also ensure you understand all facets of risk adjustment and help you position your organization to make the best decisions.
