🌟 Understanding Inpatient Coding Guidelines: Key Insights 🌟 Are you familiar with the nuances of inpatient coding? Here are some crucial points to keep in mind: 🔹 8 to 24 Hour Rule: If a patient’s stay is less than 8 hours, regardless of the discharge date, only the initial service code (99221, 99222, 99223) should be reported. For stays over 8 hours but under 24 hours: If discharged the same day, report the same-day discharge code (99234, 99235, 99236). If discharged on a different calendar date, report the discharge code (99238, 99239) alongside the initial service code. For stays exceeding 24 hours, report both the initial service code (99221, 99222, 99223) and the discharge code (99238, 99239). 📊 Examples: Admitted at 11 PM, discharged at 4 AM (less than 8 hours): Report 99222 (initial service). No discharge code. Admitted at 11 PM, discharged at noon (more than 8 hours, less than 24 hours): Report 99234 (same-day admission and discharge). Admitted at 11 PM Monday, discharged Wednesday (more than 24 hours): Report 99222 and the appropriate discharge CPT (99238, 99239) on the discharge date. By understanding these coding guidelines, you can reduce denials and streamline your billing processes.

Healthcare technology: Streamlining workflows and empowering professionals  It's crucial to recognize that, in the current landscape, hospitals and health systems aren't aiming to substitute the invaluable human touch and expertise that individuals bring to their roles. Rather, the overarching objective is to enhance and streamline processes, particularly by mitigating the administrative burdens that can encumber the essential work of pharmacists, pharmacy techs, CNAs, nurses, physician assistants, and physicians. By reframing the discourse, we acknowledge the significance of preserving the human element while embracing technological advancements to bolster efficiency. It's about augmenting human capabilities, not replacing them, thereby empowering healthcare professionals to focus more on patient care and less on administrative tasks. This approach not only honors the expertise and dedication of healthcare workers but also optimizes the delivery of healthcare services, ultimately benefiting both patients and providers alike.

Wow, this is a game-changer in healthcare worker retention! 🚀 Kudos to Nebraska Medicine for tackling nurse turnover head-on. These insights about supporting frontline leaders are spot-on – it's all about empowering them with the right tools. The Laudio platform seems effective in streamlining workflows and boosting meaningful interactions. A whopping 50% reduction in first-year nurse turnover is incredible! 🎉 Major props to Nebraska Medicine for leading the charge in leveraging tech to enhance patient care through happier, more engaged teams. This issue is extremely important to address, and I hope other hospital systems follow suit. #FutureofHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #MedTech #MedicalInnovation 🏥💡

🎉 Big Pi Point of View Series: #5 Did you know that the NHS faces major challenges with over 7.5 million patients waiting for treatment? 🤔 This is mainly due to workforce and operational issues affecting clinical staff and patient satisfaction. Check out the blog below, where Professor Niki Trigoni FREng, Founder and CSO of Navenio , explains how Reverse Bed Chain (RBC) and Navenio’s solution enhance efficiency by empowering nurses with real-time data to provide proactive care. We’d love to hear your suggestions for future topics. Drop them in the comments below!👇 #BigPiVentures #PointOfView #BigPiBlog

Collaboration continues to be the focus for me in 2024. This week we had the opportunity to meet up with Jean Ross RN and her husband Chris at Primary Record to learn more about their innovative use of technology. This technology will be making a huge difference in healthcare navigation and coordination for everyone in the future. Think about this….. 💡What if there was a way to connect all those portals in one place? 💡What if there was a place where all that information was then organized and categorized and accessible? 💡What if families had a place together where each person’s medical information could be stored, accessed and updated continuously? For those of you who are nurses, case managers and Patient Advocates, we see this as a game changer!!! No more confusion when multiple medications and treatments prescribed by multiple physicians, who do not communicate with one another. No more countless hours gathering medical records to review and organize and copy along with summaries and timelines to provide to multiple physicians caring for one patient. This leads to improvement in safety, quality of care and outcomes! We all are patients! We all deserve quality care! We are proud to say we have partnered to work with Jean Ross, RN and Primary Record to provide input and recommendations as to how this tool can be of use to those of us in the Nursing, Case Management and Patient Advocacy world! Stay tuned!! #patientadvocate #nursesonlinkedin #nursecasemanagers #nurseleaders #innovativetechnology #medicalrecords #patientsafety #patientexperience #communicationiskey

Our #ClevelandClinicSASC team got to experiment with Laerdal Medical #SimCapture during yesterday’s #insitu simulation with an interprofessional response team of nurses, physicians, pharmacists, police, and more. I’m very excited to see the data that can be captured during in situ simulation to understand practice and drive change that will improve patient safety. #HealthcareSimulation #ClevelandClinic
