Description

Discover the What, When, Who, and How of Physician Coding Queries! What is a coding query and when should one be generated? Who should be writing coding queries and how do you write a non-leading query? In this webinar, we delve into the history of coding compliance and queries. Complete with information from AHIMA’s Practice Brief, published in December 2022, we outline the parties responsible for the query process and how to ensure complete and accurate documentation of the patient’s story for compliant reporting.

Objectives:

  • Identify the roles of coders and clinical documentation specialists in the coding process
  • Recognize when to query and when not to query
  • Write a compliant query

I could have used more examples. But the ones given were very explanatory for the ideas they were trying to reinforce.
