The Problem

Due to resource challenges, independent, community hospitals often struggle with capturing patient acuity on their most difficult cases which negatively impacts reimbursement and quality outcomes.

Our Solution

SANDIOLA uses four “levers” to ensure acuity is properly captured:

Why It Works

Sandiola's CDI/Coding specialists are clinicians dual credentialed in CDI and Coding from ACDIS and AHIMA. Because of this, our clients can be certain that patient acuity will be correctly captured on every case we review. 
 

Additionally, our proprietary case prioritization algorithm focuses our team’s effort on the most important cases first, ensuring that the cases which have the biggest impact on Case Mix Index receive the most attention. The Sandiola team continually collaborates with the hospital staff in real-time to ensure all cases are correctly documented in the electronic medical record and CDI and Coding best practices are shared.
