Staffing

​

Intero provides experienced CDI Staff to Health Systems Nationally offering immediate support for your production goals. Understanding the specialties you work with do not go unrecognized. We take great care in finding top talent to complete your team. As quickly as the need arises, we connect you with an inpatient or outpatient CDI specialist with matching experience.

​

CDI specialists work directly with the facility, remotely or on-site, to conduct a comprehensive review of current CDI workflows and processes. After a CDI quality audit, our specialists make recommendations to optimize chart review and physician education efficiency. Our CDI leaders train your entire team on updated procedures and spend the individual time required with physicians and their clinical leaders to adopt the changes.

 

Intero's CDI specialists are available to work on-site for an extended amount of time to ensure new processes gain traction. Our CDI leadership will make follow-up visits to check on progress and ensure improvements are gaining traction.
