ACDIS update: CDI roles grow in clinical validation, denials prevention, and clinical appeals, research shows
April 25, 2019
CDI Strategies - Volume 13, Issue 17
A national survey of 118 CDI leaders, including supervisors, managers, and directors, reveals trends in clinical denials and the role of CDI professionals in their prevention and appeal. While denials have traditionally been handled by a dedicated denials department or HIM/coding, CDI professionals with their clinical acumen and knowledge of coding guidelines have found a new niche in denials management.
The new report, brought to you in partnership with 3M, provides summary data and insight and analysis by eight experts who are successfully leveraging their CDI staff to protect hospital revenue from denials.
