Welcome to the Coding and CDI Congress

Talk Ten Tuesdays

They were once called “clinical documentation improvement” specialists, charged with correcting the medical record to identify an overlooked diagnosis that carried the potential to increase revenue. Later, the description was changed to clinical documentation “integrity” (CDI) specialists.

But that was then. This is now.

Today, the job description continues to change. CDI professionals are being asked to take on more and more responsibilities.

And that is why the producers of Talk Ten Tuesday have invited Penny Jefferson, a longtime CDI professional, to be the special guest during the next live edition of the weekly Internet broadcast.

The broadcast will also feature these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:

· Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.

· CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Senior Director of Clinical Policy and Education for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.

· The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.

· News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.

· MyTalk: Angela Comfort, veteran healthcare subject-matter expert, will co-host the broadcast. Comfort is the Assistant Vice President of Revenue Integrity for Montefiore Health.
