Norma, in reference to your question about VHA CDIP program's name, I
don't know that it has one. What I can tell you is that it falls within
VHA Performance Services, under Clinical Specialty Services. The
Director is Ginny Balla, MBA, who is a wealth of knowledge. Her email
is, I believe:
gballa@vha.com
I was fortunate enough last September to attend a VHA presentation on
CDI at which Ginny spoke. At that time, VHA's CDI offered to perform an
assessment of your medical records and make recommendations at no charge
to the organization. However, I don't know if that was a time-limited
offer or if the situation has changed. I sure would ask, though. Good
luck, and let me know if I can provide further information.
