Dear CDI professional, A major change in how healthcare is delivered and paid for is going on, right now, right under our noses. Whether directly related to COVID-19, digital and ambulatory services, outpatient care focused on retail-based preferences, population health, risk-based contracting, or any number of other circumstances…change is happening. The good news is that some of your peers are already elbow deep in outpatient CDI and this new world of risk-based contracting, capitated payment, and reviews of encounters in clinics and private practices. If your organization has a risk-based contract in play, works with Accountable Care Organizations, or is experiencing denials in its emergency department, opportunities await.
If you’re interested in hearing straight from peers who have made the leap, please consider joining us for ACDIS Online: Uncovering Outpatient CDI Opportunities.
Over the course of the program you’ll hear from successful outpatient programs at organizations like the Mayo Clinic, Wake Forest Baptist Health, Novant Health, and Baptist Health System in Kentucky. You’ll get an in-depth look at Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCCs), help with managing the problem list and the risks of provider self-coding, strategies for positioning CDI to review observation cases, and learn the major changes coming next year to physician E/M coding and billing. You’ll walk away with ideas to either get started, or to make tangible improvements to your existing outpatient CDI program.
In closing, there is always more to learn in CDI, and we believe that the COVID-19 pandemic is only going to accelerate the change to value-based healthcare. That means, outpatient opportunities await!
