Thorough knowledge of clinical criteria and documentation needs is imperative to code kidney injuries. Several major criteria sets can be used to define acute kidney injury (AKI) or acute renal failure (ARF), making the coder’s job more difficult. The complexity of the disease process, combined with varying metrics and scattered documentation, creates an environment ripe for denials.

Join expert speakers Jonathan LaFleur, BSN, RN, CCS, and Kimberly Janet Carr, RHIT, CCS, CDIP, CCDS, as they review the anatomy and physiology of the kidney, as well as documentation and coding requirements. The speakers will help listeners define AKI and ARF, recognize their fundamental metrics, and review real-life case studies so the audience can see the impact of an AKI/ARF denial on an organization.

At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to: 
  • Define the clinical hallmarks of AKI/ARF 
  • Describe the fundamental metrics for AKI/ARF 
  • Determine the impact of an AKI/ARF denial on their organization
