Abstract

Clinical documentation improvement (CDI) is a recent initiative gaining increased momentum in Australia. The benefits surrounding its success internationally include improved quality and patient safety outcomes and increased reimbursement.

Every country has differing healthcare systems and this article has focused on validating the relevancy of CDI for the Australian healthcare environment.
