ACDIS update: Join us for our sepsis webinar on Tuesday, July 21

CDI Strategies - Volume 14, Issue 29

Sepsis and its various disease progressions and complications result in nearly 270,000 deaths annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Furthermore, a number of patients sick with COVID-19 have experienced an immune response called a cytokine storm, which in turn may lead to sepsis. Challenging clinical definitions make it difficult to capture the most accurate documentation for code assignment—and this affects quality assessments, data analysis, and population health research.

Join us for our webinar, Sepsis: Navigating the Ever-Changing Clinical Documentation & Coding Landscape, on Tuesday, July 21, 1-2:30 p.m. eastern, to unpack this ever-challenging diagnosis. During this program, renowned speaker Cesar Limjoco, MD, will walk participants through the various definitions of sepsis and help them create a plan for effective and compliant query practices.
