Computer Assisted Physician Documentation (CAPD) and advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Please join CtHIMA for our one hour lunch ‘n’ learn on Wednesday, October 23rd from noon to 1:00 pm. presented by Phil Goyeau of Solventum, previously 3M –

Evolution of query workflows:
Computer Assisted Physician Documentation (CAPD) and advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Query workflows require a delicate balance. We must be mindful of physician burnout and administrative burdens, while also addressing ever-increasing demands for documentation that is complete and compliant, supports financial and quality goals, and mitigates the risk of denials due to stringent payer rules.

In this session, we will discuss how today’s CDI and coding teams are using AI to automatically deliver clinical intelligence into physicians’ documentation workflows. We will discuss AI-powered CAPD nudges and how that insight can help CDI teams follow up on additional opportunities. We will examine industry guidelines around content and templates as well as delivery and response methods. We will also share best practices on workflow and how reporting is key to managing change and driving ongoing improvement.

Learning objectives
At the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

  1. Describe AI-powered CAPD technology, and how CDI teams use it to proactively engage physicians in documentation integrity.
  2. Explain industry guidelines related to compliant practices for automated queries and CAPD nudges.
  3. Discuss workflow best practices and related key performance indicators.

Letter from the Board

Autumn 2024

Greetings members!

Well, now the long hot days of summer are well behind us as the kids had back to school and vacations end for most! The fall is a good time to settle in and attend some online learning sessions with CtHIMA!

Speaking of back to school, Jill Flanigan reports for CT State Community College Middlesex record high enrollments across all courses and programs in HIM, Coding, and Healthcare Administration, thus far totally 110 students! A very good Wsign for the profession!

On June 27th we enjoyed a stimulating presentation from Dr. Kengia Sabree on “The Power of Dual Certification” that encouraged MUCH discussion from the audience. She artfully suggested crated ways to combine various credentials, including some from outside AHIMA, to better promote your goals and aspirations to land the job you might be seeking.

On August 22nd Dr. Jasmine T. Agnew, the new Senior Vice President, Academic Affairs and Professional Credentials at AHIMA, presented “Vision for the Future of the H.I.M. Professional”, which again triggered much lively discourse! In fact, attendees were immediately asking for a follow-up session.

For Wednesday, October 2nd from noon to 1:00 pm we offer another virtual lunch and learn presented by Dr. Nicole Copemann, RHIA, CPC titled “Growth Mindset for HIM Professionals”. Together we will explore the growth mindset concept to discover how it can specifically benefit the HIM professional.

Remember, we have a half-day virtual annual scheduled for 8:00 am – noon on November 15th featuring three of your favorite speakers – Jen Cox, Michelle Badore, and Carl Schiesl I will also be giving business updates for both CtHIMA and presenting on AHIMA’s activities for the year. So be sure to register today!

Here’s to a long, relaxing fall filled with loads of fun and joy as we ready for the busy holiday season to come!
