Physician Advisor Corner: Hit docs where it matters most—in their wallets!

by Trey La Charité, MD, FACP, SFHM, CCS, CCDS
In the past, I have advised CDI professionals against promoting the monetary benefits of CDI adoption. If the medical staff thinks the program’s purpose is hospital revenue, they will likely rebel. Working in an academic institution, I have witnessed the laudable notion that patient care supersedes all other considerations.
