Record Review in the Unites
Hi Everyone,
Those working in CDI with a complete electronic record, do you review records in the unites. If not, how often do you go to the floor (provide Face to Face time) in a week? Just would like to get an idea of the impact EHRs have had on CDI chart reviews.

To maintain being visible-which was a concern, we make posters to hang about trending topics, we attend and educate at provider huddles (voluntary for them to attend), go to provider meetings, and do 1:1 education for all incoming providers. We also attend and do a slide presentation annually at the Family Medical Residency Clinic once they have gotten their feet wet. We tell the providers we will come to the floor (and often do) to explain a query, help sign a query, or for any other issues they need! Normally we run to help a Locums sign a query. Our regular staff providers recognize us and we maintain our communication with them constantly. We send both good examples of documentation and documentation that "need improving" to the provider liaison and that helps keep us on their minds, as she posts them on a board in the Physician lounge!
It is difficult to maintain importance and being visible with an all EMR but we try and think of ways to maintain communication and visbility!

We no longer go to the floors to review charts.
We are able to work from home two days a week and are onsite three days a week.
We have biweekly (every other week) meetings with a representative from each of our Hospitalists Groups.
If we notice documentation trends that need addressed or Queries that aren't being answered we can bring them up then.
The ability to work from home a few days a week is great!
I think face to face time with physicians is important but I also think that can be accomplished if you maximize your onsite days.
I'm hoping that eventually we may be able to work from home more often, but there is no plan for that at this time....

Our clinicians do not chart on the units, they use this time on the units to work as clinicians, preferring to chart at home or in a dedicated break area, working in solitude. This factor with the Electronic Health Record means we have to schedule proactive meetings w/ key staff to perform education. Our staff do NOT want us 'at the elbow', and I understand why that is their preference.
I believe a properly constructed query stands on its own merits, and the factors of finding and staffing rare talent (CCDS, CDIP) in a dense urban environment means Remote should be an option for some sites.
We do periodically visit the units in order to review cases, and this increase our interaction with staff.

Subject: RE:[cdi_talk] Record Review in the Unites
Hybrid, with some working from home 100% and some reporting to a brick &mortar. However, the reality is that w/ EPIC, all of our work is done off the units.
Our clinicians do not chart on the units, they use this time on the units to work as clinicians, preferring to chart at home or in a dedicated break area, working in solitude. This factor with the Electronic Health Record means we have to schedule proactive meetings w/ key staff to perform education. Our staff do NOT want us 'at the elbow', and I understand why that is their preference.
I believe a properly constructed query stands on its own merits, and the factors of finding and staffing rare talent (CCDS, CDIP) in a dense urban environment means Remote should be an option for some sites.
We do periodically visit the units in order to review cases, and this increase our interaction with staff.

Subject: RE:[cdi_talk] Record Review in the Unites
We are completely electronic now as well.
We no longer go to the floors to review charts.
We are able to work from home two days a week and are onsite three days a week.
We have biweekly (every other week) meetings with a representative from each of our Hospitalists Groups.
If we notice documentation trends that need addressed or Queries that aren't being answered we can bring them up then.
The ability to work from home a few days a week is great!
I think face to face time with physicians is important but I also think that can be accomplished if you maximize your onsite days.
I'm hoping that eventually we may be able to work from home more often, but there is no plan for that at this time....

Hi Everyone,
Those working in CDI with a complete electronic record, do you review records in the unites. If not, how often do you go to the floor (provide Face to Face time) in a week? Just would like to get an idea of the impact EHRs have had on CDI chart reviews.
