Ask ACDIS: Assessing ICD-10-CM/PCS productivity reductions
Q: What are hospitals expecting in terms of productivity reductions in ICD-10-CM/PCS? How many more queries will CDI professionals be expected to leave?
A: Although I am not aware of a definitive percentage decrease in productivity specific to CDI specialist work, ACDIS’ 2014 Program Structure and Productivity Survey cites that the majority of respondents (76.9%)
expected their program’s productivity to decrease as ICD-10-CM/PCS implementation begins, and as staff begin to query and educate physicians about additional documentation needs.
