CDI housed in.....

in CDI Management

Hi All,

I am looking for data about where CDI is housed in facilities as well as any implications when CDI is housed in a particular location.

I found the 2014 program structure survey data but I could swear I've seen something more recently?


I would appreciate anything you can pass along.


thanks!


Katy

    We have 6 CDI. 4 are located in HIM across form MD lounge and 2 are located in an office downstairs. Space is very limited here. I am lead and I am located with other CDI staff. I think ideally CDI located in or near MD lounge or on units is very beneficial

    On line polls:

       
    HIM
    		Case Management Finance Quality Other
    9/24/2012 Which department houses your CDI program? 48% 30% 8% 10% 5%

    Can't remember any more recent white papers ...

    Maybe a good time to ask for a repeat of the online poll?

    thanks Don!! We are currently in Quality and they are considering moving us. I have a feeling there have been relatively significant changes in the last few years so I agree!

    We report through HIM to finance. We used to report to the quality director through case management. Both have pros and cons. Since we have been reporting through HIM, we have more of a financial focus. For example, my performance goals are now based on CMI. Not what I would have picked as a measure of success, but it is what it is.

    We started our program under case management, which reports under the quality umbrella in our facility, but had some unforeseen circumstances come along.  After that we were moved under HIM.  We still work very closely with quality, but we learned the HIM model worked best for our program

    CDI is housed in the HIM department.  The HIM department just transitioned to finance, previously we reported to the CIO.
