Electronic Nudges vs. CDI queries
Hi all,
Some discussion amongst my team is : if a 'nudge' fires for example asking a provider to specify the type of malnutrition that was documented , and the provider specifies severe protein calorie malnutrition, but that answer is not clinically supported in the medical record, should CDI then send a clinical validation query or does that contradict the practice brief which states not to query the provider twice unless new clinical information is present ?
