If you’re looking for ways to expand your CDI department into outpatient settings and services—all of which can impact risk scores—you’ll find it in the Risk Adjustment Documentation and Coding Boot Camp. This special two-day version of ACDIS’ popular boot camp reviews both inpatient and outpatient coding guidelines and their application to the CMS-Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) methodology, including detailed instruction on the individual HCCs and identification of opportunities for improved documentation. Clinical scenarios are used to demonstrate concepts and validate learning.

This boot camp goes beyond just knowing how to code for a condition. It explores where coding information may be obtained as well as where to look for documentation deficiencies to improve overall risk scores.
