Provider Education Microlearning Series

Overview

The Essential Resource for Provider Education

The Provider Education Microlearning Series includes 30+ quick-hit modules for both inpatient and outpatient providers detailing documentation tips for clinical conditions including heart failure, sepsis, and acute renal failure.

Authored by Laurie Prescott, RN, MSN, CCDS, CCDS-O, CDIP, CRC, and James Manz, MD, FAAOS, CCDS-O, from the Mayo Clinic, the modules explain how provider documentation:

Influences and quantifies publicly available physician profiles related to mortality and complication rates
Affects organizational quality metrics
Ties into risk adjustment methodologies and reimbursement

Modules on key conditions highlight the patient diagnoses and conditions with the greatest impact and the ones that can be challenging for providers to capture the needed specification.

This eLearning series from HCPro—the leading experts in compliant education and training—explains clinical documentation integrity (CDI) processes and teaches providers documentation best practices, helping to reduce the volume of queries they receive along with bolstering their understanding of compliance to ensure they protect themselves and their organizations.

Provider Education Microlearning Series teaches providers documentation best practices to ensure they communicate relevant patient information to ensure appropriate reimbursement, mitigate the potential for denials, see an improvement in publicly recorded quality scores, and reduce the volume of queries they receive.

The Provider Education Microlearning Series library offers more than 30 bite-size modules that comprise a comprehensive and practical curriculum.

The modules are organized in two categories: Foundational learning and key condition learning. Foundational modules explain the WHY behind CDI, allowing providers to understand how their documentation is used to influence and quantify public physician profiles related to mortality and complication rates, organizational quality metrics, risk adjustment methodologies, and reimbursement. Key conditions modules highlight conditions that are both impactful and challenging for providers to capture the needed specification.

When applicable, modules have two tracks: One directed toward providers in the hospital setting and one directed to providers working in the clinic setting. Providers have an opportunity to identify their care setting at the beginning of the module, allowing them to receive targeted education related to the nuances of each setting.

Foundational Modules:
Foundational modules explain how provider documentation and code assignments are used to support organizational goals related to accurate DRG assignment, risk adjustment methodologies, quality reporting, E&M leveling, denials mitigation, and ensuring patients are placed in the most appropriate level of care.

The goal of these modules is to help providers understand how their documentation is used to demonstrate patient complexity and to give them clear guidance so they understand how to communicate the information.

Modules include:

Relationship Between Physician Documentation and ICD-10-CM Code Assignment
Purpose of Clinical Documentation Integrity & the Query Process
Provider Documentation & DRG Assignment
Introduction to Risk Adjustment
Considerations of Compliance
Evaluation & Management: Time
Evaluation & Management: Medical Decision Making

Key Conditions Modules:
Key conditions modules focus on how the ICD-10-CM classifies these conditions, highlighting the amount of specification needed to capture the appropriate level of patient complexity.

The modules use examples to demonstrate strong documentation strategies so that providers can communicate and support the presence of what they have diagnosed with the needed amount of specificity.

Modules include:

Heart Failure
Myocardial infarction
Diabetes & Manifestations
Hematologic Cancers
Neoplasms
Chronic Respiratory Failure
