🎥 Thank you to those who joined us live for our Free Lunch & Learn Webinar this November 2025 focusing on Social Determinants in Healthcare (SDOH) in CDI Workflows.

🩺 Presented by our Founder & CEO, Dr. Tarman Aziz, MD, CCDS, nationally recognized CDI speaker and educator and Chief Operating Officer Anna Rusinowski

🏠 This webinar lifts the curtain on SDOH patterns that change decisions, reveals the sometimes-overlooked phrases that hinder accurate SDOH capture, and shows how small tweaks in documentation and coding approaches can create big downstream impact.

In this free webinar, the discussion includes the following topics:

• Who can document Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) for coding under ICD-10 CM guidelines for FY26, and how to use those notes compliantly.

• How to turn patient self-report into a codeable, audit-ready entry with provider sign-off and incorporation.

• When to assign and sequence multiple SDOH Z-codes and when a concise query prevents denials.

For those who missed it, we have the free webinar on-demand for you.

· Reduce preventable payer denials and audit risk while improving revenue integrity and quality metrics.

· Build practical, clinician-friendly documentation and escalation pathways that leverage AI insights without disrupting bedside care.

If you are leading case management, utilization management, or physician advisory services, schedule a virtual conversation and joint demo to explore how we can support your denials prevention and mid–revenue cycle strategy.

🫁 When pneumonia is the principal diagnosis in the inpatient setting, specificity changes everything.

🔬 State the suspected or confirmed organism when known, such as pneumococcal or aspiration pneumonia. If the source is not identified, anchor to the clinical picture: multilobar consolidation on imaging, fever, leukocytosis, hypoxia, and response to targeted therapy.

🩺 Document acute respiratory failure as a separate secondary diagnosis when criteria are met, and do not bury it under “hypoxia.” Reference objective indicators such as arterial blood gas data, SpO₂ trends, and escalation of oxygen support.

🏥 Clarify pneumonia type: aspiration, community-acquired, hospital-acquired, or ventilator-associated. Add supported severity indicators such as sepsis when criteria are met and clearly documented.

💊 The plan should name the antimicrobial and dose, route, oxygen modality and settings, and a concrete reassessment interval, with de-escalation or escalation triggers.

📈 Precision impacts MS-DRG assignment, CC/MCC capture, Severity of Illness, and Risk of Mortality. One precise sentence can shift the group and more accurately reflect patient risk and provider work.

📝Inpatient CDI specialists, apply this structure for every pneumonia case: type, organism or suspected source, objective data, and treatment plan.

🤝 If your team wants focused education or case review support, connect with us today!
