Last week’s mini-poll

Does your hospital have a clinical documentation improvement (CDI) program (i.e., a department, staffed by nurses or HIM/coding or other professionals, that reviews the medical record concurrent to the patient’s stay, and clarifies documentation with physicians)?

• Yes, we have a CDI program:74%
  
• No, but we plan to implement one soon, or are in process of doing so
  
• No, we do not have a CDI program: 13
  
• Not applicable, I work in a physician office setting: 9%
  
• I don’t know: 4%
