ACDIS/AHIMA Compliant CDI Technology Standards position paper released

by Carolyn Riel

Early December always feels like a liminal time. We’ve had a few days off of work for Thanksgiving, spending time with friends and family, but then need to put our noses down again and meet quickly approaching deadlines before another round of holidays and time off at the end of the month. It can make finding motivation difficult, as we’re all pretending we aren’t counting down the days until some much needed rest and relaxation.

Last year around this time, the ACDIS team got together virtually for a holiday gathering, during which we started a new tradition. Each person chose a charity, and then was assigned a Secret Santa who donated to that charity in their honor. Not only did we all learn about some amazing charities we wouldn’t have otherwise, but we also got do something far more meaningful than sending each other physical gifts.
