Your Role
The Risk Adjustment Auditor is a key contributor within the Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) program, responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and compliance of risk adjustment coding and documentation across both internal teams and third-party vendors.
This role operates across concurrent and retrospective review workflows, auditing clinical documentation, coded data, and claims to verify adherence to ICD-10-CM guidelines, CMS Medicare risk adjustment requirements, MEAT criteria, and HCC capture standards. The Auditor serves as a quality control function for both vendor-delivered and internally produced CDI work, identifying gaps, validating accuracy, and driving continuous improvement.
In addition to audit responsibilities, this role plays a critical part in translating findings into actionable insights, supporting provider education, influencing documentation practices, and strengthening overall program performance.
Primary Functions of the Risk Adjustment Auditor Include:
  • Audit third-party vendor coding and CDI outputs to ensure accuracy, compliance, and adherence to contracted performance standards
  • Audit internal CDI Specialist I and II work, including chart reviews, queries, and reconciliation activities
  • Identify coding inaccuracies, unsupported diagnoses, missed HCC opportunities, and documentation gaps
  • Deliver audit findings, trend analysis, and corrective action recommendations to CDI leadership and vendor partners
  • Track and report audit performance metrics to support continuous quality improvement initiatives.
  • Review completed encounters in the post-visit, pre-billing window to validate documentation completeness and coding accuracy
  • Review and audit Pre-visit plan coding and CDI
  • Evaluate alignment between medical record documentation and draft claims, ensuring proper HCC capture
  • Assess each diagnosis for appropriate ICD-10-CM specificity and MEAT criteria compliance
  • Prioritize high-impact conditions and risk-adjustable diagnoses for intervention and resolution
  • Ensure compliant query practices aligned with AHIMA and ACDIS standards
  • Review query quality, provider responses, and documentation updates to confirm clinical support for diagnoses
  • Validate final alignment between documentation and submitted claims, resolving discrepancies in partnership with coding and billing teams
  • Translate audit findings into targeted provider and team education on documentation, coding specificity, and risk adjustment compliance
  • Partner with CDI, coding, and leadership teams to improve workflows, policies, and audit readiness
  • Serve as a subject matter expert and resource on risk adjustment, CDI best practices, and audit standards
  • Support the evolution of CDI and audit processes as automation, EMR integrations, and vendor models mature
  • Identify opportunities to expand audit scope (e.g., documentation patterns, provider performance trends, process inefficiencies)
  • Contribute to the development of scalable audit frameworks and quality assurance methodologies
  • Deliver real-time and aggregate coding and documentation feedback to providers and their clinical support teams
  • Design and facilitate education sessions on ICD-10-CM specificity, chronic condition documentation, HCC coding, and risk adjustment compliance both virtually and, on occasion, in person
  • Perform other related responsibilities as assigned
