Clinical documentation has always been important. It drives proper reimbursement and accurate quality reporting. And now ICD-10 magnifies the importance of more specific documentation. One of the "silver linings" of the news that the ICD-10 compliance date has been pushed back is that providers can take advantage of the delay to improve their clinical documentation skills. Engaging physicians to improve their clinical documentation is critical to the success of the entire healthcare organization. So, how do you engage physicians in the effort when they are facing so many other demands? In this webinar, David Meyers, MD, FACEP, Physician Advisor, and Mary Ellen Moakes, MBA, LPN, C-CDI, Executive Consultant, will share strategies to successfully engage physicians in clinical documentation improvement initiatives. Key learning objectives include: - Understanding the impact of poor documentation on the hospital’s business - How to use analytics to guide and prioritize improvement efforts - Proven approaches to engage physicians and other providers in the change process - How Beacon Partners can help you design and imlement an effective physician engagement strategy
