Each diagnosis listed is accompanied by a detailed clinical definition of the condition; clinical indicators that support the presenting condition, including diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols; ICD-10-CM chapter-specific documentation requirements, including the latest coding clinic guidance specific to the condition; CDI critical thinking tips; provider-focused education advice related to the diagnoses; and references and resources for additional information. The majority of the pocket guide is dedicated to clinical validation and diagnostic definitions, which includes an expansive listing of diagnoses significant to CDI practice.

Introducing Patient Safety Indicators!

And now, ACDIS PRO provides the information CDI specialists need to understand which codes trigger a patient safety indicator (PSI) in the Patient Safety and Adverse Events Composite (PSI 90) and which exclude the patient encounter from reporting. 

When reviewing records for encounters that could trigger a PSI in PSI 90, CDI specialists want to ensure that all information is captured correctly. Erroneously reported PSIs might indicate your hospital is delivering lower quality of care!  Did you know that with certain CMS quality measures organizations that report higher quality of care receive greater reimbursement for Medicare patients? Ensure your organization is receiving the reimbursement it deserves!

 ACDIS PRO provides users with access to the information needed to properly report these PSIs and to identify exclusions that would remove an encounter from a PSI, resulting in a positive impact on their organizations’ reimbursement rates. 

*Changes implemented on a quarterly basis, if not more frequently, depending on the significance of the change.
