Our built-in intelligent expertise guides the doctor and CDS toward a complete diagnostic picture, using lab data, medications and procedures to help find complications and additional diagnoses that have not been recorded in the doctors notes. The system-generated suggestions help identify possible diagnoses to query, resulting in more complete documentation. Create an electronic query in ChartWise:CDI, and the application will send the attending an email. The doctor logs in, and a few clicks later the response is recorded and the query is completed. If you prefer, you can still print the query and leave it for the doctor, entering the reply to capture the information. Avoid the risk of leading questions with AHIMA-conformant electronic query templates that help ensure compliance and consistency across your CDI program. Saved in pdf format, the queries are easily retrievable and auditable for both your internal QA program and outside auditors. Suggestions for additional diagnoses are automatically triggered from the lab data, medications and procedures, helping a CDS find complications that might have been overlooked and gone uncoded. Extensive on-demand reporting tools provide the documentation to support your program and gain visibility in your institution. Program impact, case mix index, response rates, complication rates, query reasons, and APR severity and mortality are among the included reports, available with a click of the button. ChartWise can help you review more admissions by making the process more efficient for you. With easy uploads of your patient data, query tracking, response capture, and email notification to doctors, there will be no more chasing down doctors, no looking for paper queries or sticky notes, and no forgotten charts.

AHIMA-conformant electronic queries and their responses are stored in the application as pdf documents, and are easily retrievable and auditable. ChartWise tracks the status of each electronic query, showing whether a response has been received and what that response was. It tracks the review history of each admission and reports on the productivity of an individual CDS or across your program. On-demand reporting also gives you insight into response rates, reasons for query, coding mismatches, and more. Intelligent expertise is built in to guide your CDI team. By providing diagnostic suggestions based on lab values, medications or procedures, the application helps train your new CDS by assisting them in finding the complications that have not been recorded in the doctors notes. On-line help and web-based training make learning the application fast and easy, helping to ensure a fast learning curve for new CDS staff. ChartWise:CDI gives you the flexibility to choose your own workflow and level of integration, whether paper-based, hybrid or fully electronic.
