A quality role: Consider core measure review as the second act for CDI

Those working in CDI and quality improvement (QI)/ core measure review may have to rethink the old adage of playing separate roles. As Shakespeare writes in As You Like It, “All the world’s a stage … and all are merely players. … One man in his time plays many parts.”

More than 60% of facilities already combine the CDI specialists’ role with quality measure review or are in the process of determining how to combine CDI/quality data collection roles. That’s according to a survey conducted during the February 2 ACDIS audio conference, “Quality Measures and CDI: A Case Study and Best Practice Approach for Success.”
