As part of the eleventh annual Clinical Documentation Integrity Week, ACDIS conducted a series of interiews with CDI professionals on a variety of emerging industry topics.  Keisha Downes, BSN, RN, CCDS, director of CDI at Wellsforce in Braintree, Massachusetts, answered these questions. She is a member of the ACDIS Leadership Council and of the 2021 ACDIS Furthering Education Committee. For questions about the committee or the Q&A, contact ACDIS Editor Carolyn Riel (criel@acdis.org).
