Responsibilities

The Clinical Documentation Improvement Specialist (CDIS) is a nurse or other clinically qualified individual who is responsible for concurrent review of inpatient medical records to identify opportunities for improving the quality of medical record documentation. Opportunities include identification of cases where diagnoses and procedures are either absent, not stated in appropriate terminology, or are not appropriately recorded. The CDIS will confer with the appropriate caregiver on the additional documentation that may be required.
