The world of medicine is fast-paced and ever changing. New breakthroughs and discoveries are being made every day, and the way in which we understand and classify conditions is constantly evolving. With the accessibility of online journals, this information is disseminated globally in an instant.
Clinicians use this information to update their practice, but this often happens in a non-linear manner, with some clinicians and specialties adopting new approaches more quickly than others.
This can make interpreting documentation challenging for clinical coders and clinical documentation specialists. Inconsistency, conflicting documentation, and a lack of communication about changes that have occurred make it difficult to classify conditions, especially when coding standards might not reflect the most up to date clinical understanding.
Aware of this problem, we have created "Clinical Catchup". In this Webinar series, one of CDIA's medical doctors will discuss pertinent clinical concepts and updates and how they apply to CDI and clinical coding.
Join us for the next episode where CDIA's Co-Founder and Director Dr David Tralaggan will discuss possibly the singular worst documented condition in our hospitals....chest pain!
Be guided through the confusing nuances of this topic and be enlightened to understand the medicine behind the codes! Join us as we traverse pulmonary emboli to STEMIs. This is a not to be missed opportunity for CDI professionals and coders from a dynamic and engaging presenter.
