Coding to CDI query requests and communication
I hope you can lend me some help with the topic of Coding/CDI query requests and communication. I am working with my coding manager to solidify a process that works for all and so far have some roadblocks that I am hoping can be worked out with finding out what others in the industry are doing.
What is the process or policy for query requests from Coding to CDI?
Are there specific query types (DRG shift impact, complications, etc...) that coding always sends to CDI?
Are there specific query types that coding never sends to CDI?
Is there a conflict resolution in place for when CDI does not agree with the request?
I appreciate any help you can provide.
