CDI Physician Advisors in Critical Leadership Capacities: Lessons Learned

Clinical Documentation Integrity Committee

As physician advisors' responsibilities in Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) grow, so do the opportunities in which they can lead. Watch this town hall session held on December 12, 2024, where you'll hear from experienced physician advisors about the unique ways each of them add value as leaders in their organizations. Panelists shared short testimonials about how they lead and then engage with the audience on similarities and differences in their responsibilities, approaches to leading, and lessons learned along the way. By the conclusion of the session, we aim to provide you with ideas you can take back to your own institutions to enhance your development as a CDI physician leader. Stay tuned for information about the next Town Hall!
