Ambulatory CDI efforts: Get thee to the ED

Many programs remain focused on inpatient populations, but branching into the ED provides a good starting point for those venturing into the outpatient arena. Not only does it offer outpatient opportunities, but the documentation from ED encounters directly affects the documentation if (or when) patients move to the inpatient setting.
