  • Provider education in outpatient CDI
  • Provider engagement with diagnosis coding and documentation
  • HCCs and how to calculate

Sessions will be chosen by the 2018 ACDIS Symposium Conference Committee, who seek to meet the needs of those who already have outpatient CDI programs as well as those who are considering programs for the future. Click here to meet the conference committee volunteers.
