ACDIS update: Want to write for ACDIS? Make sure to check out our FAQs!

Looking to submit for the CDI Journal, but need a reminder on some of the basic requirements? Not a problem! We got you covered. The theme for the November/December 2025 edition is “Quality and Health Equity,” and we hope your writerly gears are already churning!  

First, Journal articles are typically 750-1,500 words long and tend to be a bit more formal than articles in Strategies. While the topic is left to the author, each edition of the Journal does center around a particular theme, and contributors are encouraged to submit articles related to that theme.

Secondly, please note that all submissions, regardless of the contributor’s intended venue, will be reviewed editorially and placed in a particular publication as ACDIS sees fit, based on topic, style, and editorial needs.

And finally, please also note that while we understand that AI platforms can be helpful in the drafting process, we do expect that the articles contributed to ACDIS publications are the work of the contributors, leveraging their expertise and experience in the CDI field.  

Want more info on any of these FAQs? Check out the “FAQ” link in the “Member Resources” dropdown in the main menu on the ACDIS site.

The deadline for submission for consideration in the November/December edition is October 1, 2025.
