Learning Objectives:
  • Enhance organizational revenue and institutional (and physician) clinical profiles, improve patient safety reporting, and prepare for pay-for-performance at both the hospital and physician level.
  • Optimize compliant and accurate DRG assigment by leveraging both the technology of the EHR, the documentation infrastructure (clinical documentation staff) and physician education and support.
  • Optimize payment from Medicare and other MS-DRG payers by capturing the highest appropriate DRG relative weight (and thus CMI).
