Physicians who provide E/M services must document the necessary clinical information to support their medical decision-making. This is where CDI specialists play an important role, and The Documentation Improvement Guide to Physician E/M by Glenn Krauss, RHIA, BBA, CCS, CCS-P, CPUR, CCDS, C-CDI can help. This reference guide helps CDI specialists explain to physicians how complete and accurate documentation benefits their E/M payments, prevents medical necessity denials, and provides the information they need to document correctly.

• Better understand the complex guidelines that affect physician payment for E/M services
• Explain the importance of documentation to physicians beyond hospital reimbursement
• Clarify the purpose of queries and how responding to them benefits physicians’ payments and public profiles
• Encourage physicians to provide adequate documentation that will reduce the number of denials for lack of documented medical necessity
• Access a comprehensive list of additional online resources to further aid them in their important role
