ACDIS update: Apply for CCDS/CCDS-O CEUs 30 days before your event
Are you a local chapter leader or vendor hosting an event that you think could quality for CCDS or CCDS-O continuing education units (CEU)? Apply to offer those CEUs to your attendees early to ensure your application is processed in time for your event!
Applications for pre-approval for CCDS/CCDS-O CEUs must be submitted in advance of all training and education programs. ACDIS requires applications at least 30 days prior to the event to review, approve, and process applications. Any fees due must be paid before the CEU certificate will be issued. Note that ACDIS cannot process or accept CEU applications submitted after the event has occurred.
CEUs will be issued on a one-hour-equals-one-CEU basis. CEUs are not issued for welcoming and opening remarks, breaks, or informal discussions outside the training session. Training sessions must be a minimum of one hour in length.
ACDIS will issue CEUs for activities that provide training and education on CDI-related topics such as ICD-10, clinical disease or diagnosis, disease process, coding, documentation improvement activities, related technology, DRG, reimbursement, anatomy and physiology, or diagnosis/pathophysiology education.
Training may be conducted face-to-face as a seminar, workshop, or lecture, as an audio conference or webinar, or as an online or eLearning program.
The application must be accompanied by speaker/presenter bio(s) with credentials, a list of learning objectives, a list of benefits to the attendee, and a timed agenda. ACDIS reserves the right to examine the program content prior to issuing a CEU certificate.
