Note from the Associate Editor: This one’s for the books...the 2023 CDI Week theme is here!
by Jess Fluegel
Every year, ACDIS and its members celebrate CDI Week in recognition of all professionals in the clinical documentation integrity field. Make sure to mark your calendars for September 18-22 so you don’t miss out on all the resources posted as part of the celebration, including a free sponsored webinar, daily Q&As from our Furthering Education Committee, ACDIS giveaways, and a deep dive into the state of the industry with the CDI Industry Survey, to name a few.
We also encourage you and your facilities to celebrate as well, whether onsite or remote. We’ll post a list of fun ideas for activities to inspire you in advance, and during CDI Week we’ll post a crossword puzzle and word find.
I gave a hint in this article’s title—any idea what this year’s theme is?
We wanted something that would encourage CDI professionals to find personal success and write your own unique, prosperous future in the CDI industry. We thought long and hard and asked ourselves, what would that look like...or read like?
Drum roll, please! The 2023 CDI Week theme is . . .
CDI Success Stories: Writing your next chapter!
Think cozy bookstores to window shop or snuggling in with a good book and cup of tea, or a typewriter tapping away towards a brilliant next chapter. While the career story of a CDI professional can be rather open-ended, this year we wanted to focus on how to make the most of those blank pages and write the success you want to see. We can’t wait to celebrate this year’s CDI Week with you through this theme!
Have ideas for how to celebrate that you’d like to share? Send them to me and we’ll make sure to add it to our idea list for others to use! Interested in serving on the Furthering Education Committee to work with the ACDIS national team on CDI Week plans? Our committee applications are open until June 30, so make sure to apply here!
