Monitor Mondays
Why Complications are Complicated
Hospitals routinely measure, analyze, and track adverse patient harm events, collecting information about and reporting on certain types of such events in order to meet the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) program and state legal requirements.
Prior work plans of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) revealed that hospitals reported few harm events to state reporting systems.
During the next live edition of Monitor Mondays, Dr. James Kennedy, president of CDIMD, will unwrap the January 2025 OIG proposal (OEI-06-18-00401) to evaluate hospital quality reporting, suggesting how hospitals’ clinical documentation integrity (CDI) and coding workflows can address errors of omission or commission.
