Description
Responsible for improving the quality, completeness, and clinical accuracy of inpatient documentation and DRG assignment through targeted concurrent DRG validation. The Clinical Documentation Integrity Specialist II - DRG Validator reviews selected inpatient accounts generally more than 48 hours from admission that have not been DRG optimized, using integrated electronic health record workflows, technology-enabled review worklists, and analytics-informed prioritization to focus on cases with the highest documentation, clinical validation, and reimbursement risk. Focused review includes non-optimized DRGs, signs and symptoms DRGs, APR-DRGs with SOI/ROM of 1/1 where the clinical picture suggests higher acuity, local infection DRGs to evaluate for sepsis or systemic illness, sepsis DRGs without documented organ dysfunction or other required clinical indicators, and level-of-care versus DRG mismatch, such as ICU or step-down patients assigned minor DRGs or SOI/ROM 1/1.. Scope to include all inpatient payors. Uses analytics informed prioritization, AI assisted worklists, and DRG encoder logic including TruBridge where implemented. Supports Epic transition planning for CDI workflows with planned go live in July 2027.
