ACDIS Happy Hour: Committees, CDI Week, Books!

The ACDIS Podcast

Today’s guests are ACDIS Regulatory Committee co-chairs Sharme Brodie, RN, CCDS, CCDS-O, CDI education specialist for ACDIS/HCPro, based in Middleton, Massachusetts, and Kay Piper, RHIA, CDIP, CCS, inpatient coding educator at SSM Health System in St. Louis, Missouri. The show is hosted by ACDIS Associate Editorial Director Linnea Archibald, Editor and Product Coordinator Karla Accorto, and Associate Editor Jess Fluegel. Today’s show is part of our “ACDIS Happy Hour” series, which provides a glimpse behind the scenes of all things ACDIS in a more casual, conversational format than our other podcast series. Our intro and outro music for the ACDIS Podcast is “medianoche” by Dee Yan-Kay and our ad music is “Take Me Higher” by Jahzzar, both obtained from the Free Music Archive. Today’s show is brought to you by ACDIS PRO. ACDIS PRO is an interactive, customizable online tool that allows CDI professionals to easily access CDI information anywhere at any time. The tool contains all the great content you’re accustomed to getting in the ACDIS Pocket Guide books, but with the added benefits of an online tool. You can access the tool on any device. This tool can be used on your phone, tablet, or desktop, and it will conform to the size of your device. Search by clinical condition, ICD-10 code, or MDC to locate the guidance you need. Updated in real time, get the latest expert guidance you need to ensure accuracy and compliance. Once you look up your clinical condition, you’ll receive all the guidance related to that condition, including detailed definitions, diagnostic and treatment protocols, ICD-10-CM chapter-specific documentation requirements, CDI critical thinking tips, and more. There are currently four versions of the product: inpatient, outpatient, coder, and physician. Learn more by clicking here (http://ow.ly/A37c30sjW0s).
