BRENTWOOD, Tenn., July 26, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Designed by the expert instructors at the Association of Clinical Documentation Integrity Specialists (ACDIS), HCPro's new Leadership in CDI Boot Camp provides essential training for anyone in a leadership position or looking to grow into one. It is available in three formats: virtually with a live instructor, live in person at a meeting site, or online eLearning at your own pace.
This course addresses leadership skills and challenges specific to CDI, including how to:
- Lead at the organizational level. Start with the essentials and understand the far-reaching impact CDI has across an organization (e.g., quality, healthcare data reporting, denials, compliance), including how CDI influences and drives value in collaboration with other department leaders and C-suite executives to support the organization's financial, quality, and strategic goals.
- Put compliance front and center to drive success and prevent risk. Become acutely aware of how to identify compliance risk areas and protect your CDI department from vulnerabilities. Receive ideas and best practices for conducting internal audits and gain an understanding of denials management.
- Hire, develop, and manage staff successfully. Receive solid advice for how to create job descriptions; find, screen, interview, and hire strong CDI specialists; and help them develop and grow over time, even in a remote environment.
- Direct the CDI department. Learn how to define the mission of your department, from charting goals, growth, and expansion to managing change, evaluating opportunities and requests, and encouraging purpose-driven leadership. Additionally, delve into CDI metrics and get tips for communicating program and staff effectiveness up and down in the organization.
When asked about this opportunity for new or aspiring CDI leaders, Rebecca Hendren, ACDIS director of programming, said, "Effective leaders are the most valuable asset any company has. The new Leadership in CDI Boot Camp builds knowledge and confidence to develop effective leaders in CDI, including teaching skills to manage staff, grow departments, design a departmental mission, and create strategies that align with organizational goals."
All formats of the Boot Camp conclude with an additional eLearning module, which includes bite-size training on core business skills and leadership competencies:
- Brief eLearning courses related to business writing, conflict resolution, setting goals to guide employee performance, and giving/receiving feedback
- An ACDIS position paper on effective CDI leadership
- Excerpts from leading ACDIS books on management
Graduates of the Boot Camp earn the Leadership in CDI Certificate, demonstrating that they have cultivated both the CDI knowledge and the business and management skills necessary to be designated as ACDIS-Approved CDI Leaders. They are allowed to use the designation ACDIS-Approved CDI Leader in their resumes, biographical information, or email signatures.
