Research notes: Resident education as an avenue for improved documentation

by Howard Rodenberg, MD, MPH, CCDS
If you were to ask me, “What is the single best thing I can do to improve clinical documentation?” my answer would be to go out and get yourself some resident physicians. Beg, borrow, or steal them if you have to, but having residency programs within your healthcare system inevitably gives you a leg up in CDI success.
