Physician education and rounding
Hello fellow CDI's. Hope all is well. We are in the process of possibly revising our rounding and physician education format.
At this point each CDI covers 3-4 units and round once a week with each unit. We are totally electronic and we send out our clarifications via while rounding or via email. We also calculate the working APR-DRG. We meet our new residents when they reach each unit so we do a brief session with them as well as yearly division mtgs with the attending's. Lastly, we do one on ones with the attending's if we can't get to them during rounds.
I was wondering of those of you with electronic medical records, how do you incorporate your physician education.
Thanks in advanced for your help.

Our staffing sounds similar to yours: We each cover 3-4 units and round with our teams anywhere between 3-5 days per week in areas other than general med/surg. Problem is our CDSs are unit-based and our general med/surg units are team-based, so we don't round with the general med/surg teams.
The CDSs are not involved in any formal education for the physicians. All of our education occurs informally during rounds or during the clarification process (via phone or PingMD if the MD has questions). We are a newer program (just had our first "birthday") so I am hoping that we can develop more formal education as our program evolves.
Sorry not too much help, but I am curious to see what other programs are doing.

Greetings from sunny Florida!
Our CDI staff rounds with physicians 3-5 days a week depending on the CDI
Specialist and the unit. We are unit based in our assignments. We do
informal education in person during and after rounds. I also provide
clinical research on topics they are interested in. I work with the
Critical Care team and have developed formal education that is
presented during division meetings. I also work with them on
personalizing their Progress Note templates in the EMR so that their drop
down choices are appropriate and specific to Pediatric Critical Care.
An interesting point is that I have had the more experienced residents
suggest a formal CDI program be taught during residency, separate from
direct patient care. I have a degree in Education as well as Nursing and
would love such as opportunity. Perhaps the course could be called
"Documenting in Diagnostic Language". One of the phrases we all use
frequently is "turn your signs and symptoms into a formal diagnosis". Does
anyone know of such a program or is anyone else interested in developing
one?

We are unit based .
We collaborated with our pediatric house staff education department and established a CDI presentation (2 hours) with all first year residents as part of their pediatric 101. Then they come back for a refresher during their third year community pediatric residency. Each CDI does a service specific presentation on the top diagnoses they will encounter during their rotation and provide tips on clinical documentation.
The future plan is to work with our local med school and do a presentation to senior medical students prior to the start of their residency.
Thank you and have a blessed day.

Hi Kathy, thanks so much for the response. So it seems like we are on the same track. May I ask all of you who are reading this, if you are paper or electronic based. If you are electronic based do you work from home?

Greetings from sunny Florida!
Our CDI staff rounds with physicians 3-5 days a week depending on the CDI Specialist and the unit. We are unit based in our assignments. We do informal education in person during and after rounds. I also provide clinical research on topics they are interested in. I work with the Critical Care team and have developed formal education that is presented during division meetings. I also work with them on personalizing their Progress Note templates in the EMR so that their drop down choices are appropriate and specific to Pediatric Critical Care.
An interesting point is that I have had the more experienced residents suggest a formal CDI program be taught during residency, separate from direct patient care. I have a degree in Education as well as Nursing and would love such as opportunity. Perhaps the course could be called "Documenting in Diagnostic Language". One of the phrases we all use frequently is "turn your signs and symptoms into a formal diagnosis". Does anyone know of such a program or is anyone else interested in developing one?

Hello fellow CDI's. Hope all is well. We are in the process of possibly revising our rounding and physician education format.
At this point each CDI covers 3-4 units and round once a week with each unit. We are totally electronic and we send out our clarifications via while rounding or via email. We also calculate the working APR-DRG. We meet our new residents when they reach each unit so we do a brief session with them as well as yearly division mtgs with the attending's. Lastly, we do one on ones with the attending's if we can't get to them during rounds.
I was wondering of those of you with electronic medical records, how do you incorporate your physician education.
Thanks in advanced for your help.

Good day to all.
We are unit based .
We collaborated with our pediatric house staff education department and established a CDI presentation (2 hours) with all first year residents as part of their pediatric 101. Then they come back for a refresher during their third year community pediatric residency. Each CDI does a service specific presentation on the top diagnoses they will encounter during their rotation and provide tips on clinical documentation.
The future plan is to work with our local med school and do a presentation to senior medical students prior to the start of their residency.
Thank you and have a blessed day.

At Johns Hopkins ACH all service are on EMR. We have 3 CDI RNs & do not work remote at this time although we are hoping to have 1 day a week that we can remote in. At a different hospital where I previously worked we were allowed 1 remote day per week. The remote day was contingent upon meetings, unit-based census etc. It wasn't always the same day each week, but we tried to be consistent whenever possible.

Steph,
We have 259 beds. I prefer to round daily, but the other CDI staff round
2-3 x per week. Since we are unit based, education to medical staff is
varied according to the CDI Specialist and their comfort level with
knowledge and education. I know that does not give you any specific
information, but our program is 2.5 years old and still not formalized. It
has been functioning more like pre-coding than CDI. Since the addition of
myself and another experienced RN we are slowly moving it forward. Our
biggest hurdle is that our director, who is a wonderful HIM Director, has a
difficult time understanding the clinical aspects of CDI. We are pushing
forward as much as we can without causing conflict.
I have been a CDI at other institutions where physician education was done
in formal Power Point presentations at departmental meetings. I have also
done informal teaching in a question and answer style during yearly all
medical staff meetings.
I hope this helps a little.

Hi Kathy, thanks for responding. My dept. is about 1.5yrs old as well, and the team seems like they are loosing their sense of worth. They too are feeling like they are only pre coders. I try to keep up the momentum with them and explain to them that this dept/program is a work ion progress. How have you kept up your momentum?
Having a friend in Peds CDI is helpful, because we are so specialized and new to the game.
Thanks again.

Steph,
We have 259 beds. I prefer to round daily, but the other CDI staff round 2-3 x per week. Since we are unit based, education to medical staff is varied according to the CDI Specialist and their comfort level with knowledge and education. I know that does not give you any specific information, but our program is 2.5 years old and still not formalized. It has been functioning more like pre-coding than CDI. Since the addition of myself and another experienced RN we are slowly moving it forward. Our biggest hurdle is that our director, who is a wonderful HIM Director, has a difficult time understanding the clinical aspects of CDI. We are pushing forward as much as we can without causing conflict.
I have been a CDI at other institutions where physician education was done in formal Power Point presentations at departmental meetings. I have also done informal teaching in a question and answer style during yearly all medical staff meetings.
I hope this helps a little.
Kathy

Hi Kathy, how many beds are in you institution?
How often do you round, and what does your education to your medical staff look like?
Thanks in advance.

At Johns Hopkins ACH all service are on EMR. We have 3 CDI RNs & do not work remote at this time although we are hoping to have 1 day a week that we can remote in. At a different hospital where I previously worked we were allowed 1 remote day per week. The remote day was contingent upon meetings, unit-based census etc. It wasn't always the same day each week, but we tried to be consistent whenever possible.

Majority of our records are EMR (only one service line is not up on the EMR) and we are all based on campus, no remote.

Good day to all.
We are unit based .
We collaborated with our pediatric house staff education department and established a CDI presentation (2 hours) with all first year residents as part of their pediatric 101. Then they come back for a refresher during their third year community pediatric residency. Each CDI does a service specific presentation on the top diagnoses they will encounter during their rotation and provide tips on clinical documentation.
The future plan is to work with our local med school and do a presentation to senior medical students prior to the start of their residency.
Thank you and have a blessed day.

Greetings from sunny Florida!
Our CDI staff rounds with physicians 3-5 days a week depending on the CDI Specialist and the unit. We are unit based in our assignments. We do informal education in person during and after rounds. I also provide clinical research on topics they are interested in. I work with the Critical Care team and have developed formal education that is presented during division meetings. I also work with them on personalizing their Progress Note templates in the EMR so that their drop down choices are appropriate and specific to Pediatric Critical Care.
An interesting point is that I have had the more experienced residents suggest a formal CDI program be taught during residency, separate from direct patient care. I have a degree in Education as well as Nursing and would love such as opportunity. Perhaps the course could be called "Documenting in Diagnostic Language". One of the phrases we all use frequently is "turn your signs and symptoms into a formal diagnosis". Does anyone know of such a program or is anyone else interested in developing one?
Keep on truckin"

Hello fellow CDI's. Hope all is well. We are in the process of possibly revising our rounding and physician education format.
At this point each CDI covers 3-4 units and round once a week with each unit. We are totally electronic and we send out our clarifications via while rounding or via email. We also calculate the working APR-DRG. We meet our new residents when they reach each unit so we do a brief session with them as well as yearly division mtgs with the attending's. Lastly, we do one on ones with the attending's if we can't get to them during rounds.
I was wondering of those of you with electronic medical records, how do you incorporate your physician education.
Thanks in advanced for your help.

Steph and All,
This is a great blog. I find it interesting that there is not one mention
of Pediatric specific "coding". The issues discussed here are particular
to CDI Specialists.
I would like to keep this going so I propose we look at each topic
separately and try to get more specific information to share.
The issues that everyone seems to be interested in are:
1. Joining Rounds
2. In-house Physician Education
3. CDI Staffing
4. CDI Morale
5. Resident/Med School Formal Education Program Development
If anyone is interested in taking a topic, let me know and I will post more
information on this blog.
Please feel free to email or call me. My contact information is listed
below.
