Note from the Advisory Board: Stay informed about 2020 regulatory updates

by Susan Schmitz, JD, RN, CCS, CCDS, CDIP
If you’re anything like me, I imagine you were quite relieved when the fiscal year (FY) 2020 inpatient prospective payment system (IPPS) final rule came out. The proposed rule with its thousands of CC and hundreds of MCC downgrades proved to be an exercise in futility thanks to the diligent work of professional organizations, including ACDIS, and fellow CDI professionals who shared feedback and wrote letters as to why the suggested changes wouldn’t improve patients’ healthcare.
