Readmission Denials

Does anyone have suggestions to avoiding readmission denials that their CDI team uses? These are patients readmitted anywhere from 7 - 31 days after last admission with similar complaints.  Is there anything CDI could be doing to improve documentation to show the second admission was unavoidable?  Does anyone have documentation templates for the providers asking them to comment on the second admission?
