ACDIS update: ACDIS publishes new white paper on the pros and cons of remote CDI
April 26, 2018
CDI Strategies - Volume 12, Issue 17
Remote CDI work has become not only a possibility, but a common topic of conversation in healthcare organizations across the country. But programs need to evaluate their mission, scope, and projected growth before implementing, according to an ACDIS white paper published this week “The pros and cons of remote CDI: Evaluate before you implement.”
The report acknowledges the need for workplace flexibility and benefits of remote CDI work, but cautions matching such benefits with onsite physician engagement and program enhancements. It also illustrates the need for well-vetted policies and procedures around remote efforts, and provides a sample policy and checklist that you may wish to review and adapt to your needs.
