CDIQ Learning Hub Free Webinar Series - Enhancing CDI Outcomes: A CDI Department Case Study

Описание: Presented by our Founder and CEO, Dr. Tarman Aziz, MD, CCDS, nationally recognized Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) speaker and educator.

🔎 This session follows a six month inpatient CDI optimization project at a smaller acute care hospital in the United States that serves a multi-morbid population in a mid-sized community.

Attendees will see what happens inside a CDI department when documentation best practices, query workflows, and physician engagement are examined in the real-world pressures of Medicare-heavy case mix, rising denials, and limited resources.

📍 In this free webinar, the discussion includes the following topics:

• The common pain points CDIQ sees when stepping into community-based inpatient CDI programs, including documentation patterns that miss severity, fragmented query follow up, and minimal visibility into metrics beyond Case Mix Index (CMI) and denial counts.

• How a structured CDI optimization approach can help a smaller hospital align diverse teams, including CDI, Coding, Case Management, Utilization Review, Denials & Appeals, and Physician Leadership, around shared documentation standards, even when the team is small and technology options are limited.
• Practical lessons learned from this case study that CDI leaders and specialists can adapt to their own organizations, supporting better outcomes, fewer denials, and clearer stories for medically complex patients.
