CDI Learning Assessment

CDI Learning Assessment

Course Overview

The CDI Learning Assessment is the perfect tool to self-assess your CDI educational needs or to evaluate your staff and pinpoint areas where they will benefit from education. This 100-question, easy-to-use online assessment tool is divided into four sections:

• General Knowledge
• Clinical Content
• ICD-10-PCS
• Quality and Risk Adjustment

The General Knowledge section consists of 40 questions designed to assess standard CDI competence with everyday issues. Each of the other three sections comprise 20 questions each. As students work through the assessment, they are provided with feedback on their level of proficiency for each topic.

The CDI Learning Assessment can be used in many ways:

• Pre-assessment as part of interview process for new hires
• Orientation assessment for new hires
• Benchmark for employees throughout the onboarding process
• Pre- and post-education assessments to measure education retained
• Annual competency assessments and performance reviews

Managers will find the three-pack an ideal addition to their hiring process and onboarding tools. Use the first exam to assess a potential hire or benchmark proficiency level in their first week. Then, assign the second assessment after three months and the third after six months (or the cadence that works for you) to assess growth, ensure understanding, and maximize results.

This tool saves time for both you and your staff, as you can eliminate unnecessary training and plan educational activities.

Using the reporting tool in our convenient online training platform, managers can not only review their staff's overall scores, but also download a detailed report to find out exactly which questions staff are struggling with.

Individual takers can use the "Reading Your Results" guide to identify areas for further study and review.
