Good Afternoon,

I would like to have an audit company come in and review our CDI program. I am looking for someone who would look at our reviews, queries and then look at retrospective queries being asked by the coders and compare the CDI working DRG to the final coded DRG to make sure we are in line with our program. I would appreciate any feedback you can provide.

Thanks,
Vickie Leadbetter, BS, RHIT
CDI Coordinator

    Agreed. Vicki, please share your email -- certain conversations (when getting to specific experiences) are going to be better handled privately. I'd be happy to discuss with you my personal experiences (both direct and observational).

    Secondly, I'd suggest you look at the vendor list from the ACDIS conference (link below). Scanning through, there are at least 6 I recognize (both the 'big boys' as well as smaller consultants). The smaller consultants I believe in our field are extremely competitive as far as their work. For ones that I've worked with there is often a great deal of flexibility.

    There are several of those companies that could provide the services that you are looking for. Perusing their websites will provide you some additional information.
