Membership update: Quarterly conference call today focuses on clinical validation

CDI Strategies - Volume 11, Issue 36

“The CDI specialist is uniquely positioned to unify efforts to report claims data that accurately reflects the clinical scenario and the provider’s intent within the constructs of the ICD-10-CM/PCS code set. To fulfill this role, the CDI specialist must understand the role of clinical validation as it relates to payment denials and quality measure performance validation,” according to the new ACDIS white paper, “Clinical validation and the role of the CDI professional.”

ACDIS members are invited to join the ACDIS Advisory Board today for the Quarterly Membership Conference Call, which will focus on the new clinical validation white paper.

The call takes place August 17, at 1 p.m., eastern, and members can register by visiting the call archive page on the ACDIS website. Call instructions were also sent earlier to members via email. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the webinar.

Should you have any questions about the paper or call, please email Associate Editorial Director Melissa Varnavas at mvarnavas@acdis.org.

Please note that this is an ACDIS membership benefit and only available to ACDIS members. Please do not share the dial in instructions.

Please dial into the call 10 minutes early due to the high caller volume. We look forward to discussing this complex topic with you!
