질문 # 143
A patient with severe cachexia and substantial loss of appetite requires pharmacologic treatment to stimulate appetite. Which of the following medications is most commonly associated with this indication?
정답:B
설명:
Megestrol acetate is the correct choice. This item is adapted from an official ACDIS CCDS sample question in the Candidate Handbook, where Megace-megestrol acetate-is identified as the appropriate appetite- stimulating medication.
Megestrol acetate is a synthetic progestational agent with recognized appetite-stimulating effects. Current U.
S. prescribing information specifically identifies megestrol acetate oral suspension for anorexia, cachexia, or significant unexplained weight loss in patients with AIDS. Its use illustrates why CDI specialists need functional knowledge of pharmacology: medication profiles can provide clinically relevant clues to diagnoses under evaluation, although a medication alone never establishes a reportable diagnosis.
Memantine is primarily used in Alzheimer's disease and is not an appetite stimulant. Levothyroxine replaces thyroid hormone in hypothyroidism. Sibutramine was historically used for weight reduction rather than cachexia and is therefore directionally opposite to the desired effect.
In CDI review, identification of megestrol may prompt assessment of the record for malnutrition, cachexia, malignancy-related weight loss, HIV-associated wasting, or another underlying cause, but the provider must document the diagnosis.
CCDS Reference Topics: Pharmacology; cachexia; nutrition disorders; clinical indicators.

질문 # 144
A hospital has a total MS-DRG relative weight of 2,640 for 1,600 inpatient discharges. What is its case mix index?
정답:C
설명:
Case mix index is calculated by dividing the sum of MS-DRG relative weights by the number of inpatient discharges:
2,640 ÷ 1,600 = 1.65
Therefore, the CMI is 1.65.
CMI represents the average relative resource intensity of the hospital's inpatient cases. It is affected by the types of patients treated, surgical versus medical mix, tertiary services, transplant or trauma volume, documentation specificity, coding accuracy, and annual changes to MS-DRG relative weights and grouper logic.
CMS publishes hospital case-mix information and FY 2026 relative weighting factors through the IPPS Final Rule supporting data. Table 5 contains MS-DRGs and relative weighting factors, while Table 2 contains hospital-specific case-mix information.
A decline in CMI should not automatically be interpreted as a CDI failure. A shift toward lower-complexity cases or changes in service lines can legitimately reduce CMI even with excellent documentation.
CDI managers should therefore trend CMI alongside diagnosis capture, surgical volume, service lines, payer population, coding reconciliation, and quality indicators.
CCDS Reference Topics: Case mix index; MS-DRG relative weight; CDI analytics; hospital performance.

질문 # 145
A patient is admitted with fever and weakness. On hospital day 3, final blood cultures identify an infection that the physician documents was present at the time of admission. Which statement about present-on- admission status is MOST accurate?
정답:A
설명:
A condition can be assigned present-on-admission status even when the definitive diagnosis is not made until later in the hospitalization. POA refers to whether the condition was present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurred, not the calendar date on which diagnostic confirmation became available.
This distinction is particularly relevant for infections, malignancies, fractures, acute vascular events, and other conditions whose definitive identification may require cultures, pathology, imaging, or additional diagnostic testing.
Therefore, a blood culture finalized on hospital day 3 does not automatically make the infection hospital acquired. The clinical record and provider documentation must establish whether the disease process was present at admission.
POA assignment applies to applicable principal and secondary diagnoses, not only the principal diagnosis.
CDI specialists should recognize unclear timing as a potential clarification opportunity because POA status can affect CMS Hospital-Acquired Condition payment logic and quality reporting.
The CCDS content outline expressly includes the basics of POA assignment and its impact on payment, as well as identification of CMS HACs.
CCDS Reference Topics: Present on admission; diagnosis timing; HACs; inpatient coding; quality reporting.

질문 # 146
A registered dietitian documents severe malnutrition based on substantial weight loss, severe muscle depletion, and prolonged inadequate energy intake. The attending physician documents only "poor oral intake." What is the BEST action for the CDI specialist?
정답:A
설명:
The appropriate action is to query the provider regarding the patient's nutritional diagnosis. The dietitian's assessment supplies important clinical evidence, but the associated diagnosis of malnutrition generally must be documented by an appropriate provider before the diagnosis code is assigned.
The FY 2026 ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines permit selected elements to come from non-provider clinicians-such as BMI, pressure-ulcer stage, coma scale, NIH Stroke Scale, certain social determinants, and other specifically identified exceptions. Malnutrition diagnosis itself is not simply assigned solely from a dietitian's diagnostic statement under this general rule.
Ignoring the dietitian's findings would also be inappropriate. CDI review should integrate multidisciplinary documentation because such documentation can reveal valid clarification opportunities. Severe weight loss, reduced intake, and documented muscle depletion provide a clinical basis for a neutral query.
The query should not state that severe malnutrition "must" be documented because it is an MCC. Instead, it should present the relevant nutrition findings and allow the provider to determine the diagnosis, including severe malnutrition, another level of malnutrition, another cause, or inability to determine.
CCDS Reference Topics: Malnutrition; multidisciplinary documentation; provider diagnosis requirements; clinical indicators.

질문 # 147
A CDI director wants to evaluate whether physicians are consistently addressing clarification requests. Which metric most directly measures this aspect of physician engagement?
정답:B
설명:
The provider query response rate most directly measures whether physicians are responding to CDI clarification requests. It evaluates participation in the query process regardless of whether the provider agrees with the diagnosis suggested by the clinical circumstances.
This distinction is important. A high agreement rate is not necessarily the goal of a compliant CDI program.
Providers should be free to disagree, document an alternative condition, state that a diagnosis was ruled out, or indicate that the issue cannot be determined. A very high response rate combined with clinically independent responses represents stronger engagement than an artificial focus on agreement.
Case mix index measures the average relative resource intensity of the hospital's MS-DRGs and is influenced by numerous clinical, coding, surgical, and case-mix factors. CC capture reflects diagnosis severity patterns but does not directly demonstrate physician responsiveness. CDI review rate is primarily a departmental workflow/productivity measure.
The official CCDS content outline specifically lists provider response rates, CMI, CDI productivity metrics, physician-performance measurement, and longitudinal trending among CDI program-analysis competencies.
A mature program should analyze response rate by service line, provider, query type, response time, and escalation frequency.
CCDS Reference Topics: Provider response rate; physician engagement; CDI analytics; query metrics; program performance.
