Achieving Accurate Reimbursements by Maximizing CDI for Physician Queries

The physician query process seeks to obtain accurate code assignment and ensure that the documentation accurately reflects the patient's clinical condition. It involves a collaborative effort between coding and CDI specialists, and physicians, to gather additional information and clarify details related to the clinical documentation in a patient's health record.

This white paper, sponsored by AGS Health, offers guidance to better understand the physician query process, prepare for physician querying, develop effective physician queries, handle physician responses to queries, and measure the impact of physician querying. It provides an overview of the legal and ethical guidelines for generating queries, monitoring compliance, and providing feedback to the query team. This guide also includes valuable insight into measuring the impact of physician queries and maximizing documentation improvement opportunities.
