ACDIS Certified Clinical Documentation Specialist-Outpatient Sample Questions (Q10-Q15):

NEW QUESTION # 10
For outpatient/provider services, the primary sources of coding authority include the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, AHA's Coding Clinic for ICD-10-CM/PCS, as well as which of the following?

Answer: C

Explanation:
Outpatient/provider coding relies on two major code sets: ICD-10-CM for diagnoses and CPT/HCPCS for professional services, procedures, and supplies. Because of that, outpatient coding authority is anchored not only in the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines and AHA Coding Clinic guidance for diagnosis reporting, but also in the authoritative guidance that clarifies CPT/HCPCS reporting. ACDIS outpatient CDI education stresses that CDI specialists must understand both sides: the diagnosis coding rules (ICD-10-CM) and the procedural/service reporting rules (CPT/HCPCS) that drive much of outpatient reimbursement. AMA's CPT Assistant is a key interpretive authority for CPT coding guidance, while AHA's Coding Clinic for HCPCS provides clarification on HCPCS Level II reporting. The other options focus on ICD-10-PCS guidelines and DRG tools, which are primarily inpatient facility concepts (PCS is inpatient procedure coding; DRGs are inpatient payment groupers). Therefore, the correct supplemental outpatient authority pair is AHA's Coding Clinic for HCPCS and AMA's CPT Assistant.


NEW QUESTION # 11
A patient is seen by an endocrinologist to manage his poorly controlled diabetes with peripheral neuropathy and claudication. The patient has had several toes amputated in prior years and currently has a non-healing ulcer on the left foot. The patient's additional chronic conditions consist of the following: HF, CAD, COPD, history of prostate cancer, arthritis, depression, and sleep apnea. Which of the following chronic conditions should the CDI specialist consider for future education regarding RAF impact with the endocrinologist?

Answer: A

Explanation:
For RAF impact in the CMS-HCC model, the most valuable provider education targets are conditions that (1) map to HCCs or interact with HCC hierarchies, and (2) are clearly within the specialist's scope to assess and manage during visits. In this scenario, the endocrinologist is actively treating diabetes and its complications. Diabetes with peripheral neuropathy/vascular disease plus an active non-healing foot ulcer reflects significant diabetic disease burden and often supports additional required coding (e.g., diabetes complication code plus a separate site/severity ulcer code). The history of toe amputations is also important because amputation status can represent ongoing complexity, affects care planning (risk of recurrent ulcer/infection), and may contribute to risk capture depending on the model and associated complications. By contrast, CAD/COPD/HF may not be evaluated by the endocrinologist at the visit, "A1C" is a lab value (not a diagnosis), and "history of prostate cancer" generally does not risk-adjust like active malignancy. Therefore, educating on documenting diabetes, amputation status, and ulcer details best supports RAF accuracy.


NEW QUESTION # 12
Using the table above, which of the following HCC(s) should be assigned for documentation stating the patient has resolving AKI due to ATN, creatinine levels slowly returning to baseline, and CKD- stage 3-4?

Answer: B

Explanation:
In HCC risk adjustment, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is captured by stage-based HCCs that are hierarchical-only the highest supported CKD stage in the hierarchy is counted for RAF when multiple stages (or a range) are referenced. The documentation includes "CKD - stage 3-4," which indicates the patient's baseline CKD severity falls somewhere between stage 3 and stage 4. When selecting from the provided table, stage 4 maps to HCC 327 and is higher than stage 3 categories (HCC 328 for stage 3B and HCC 329 for stage 3 except 3B). AKI due to ATN describes an acute process and does not replace the need to capture baseline CKD stage when it is clinically relevant and documented. Outpatient CDI best practice would be to query the provider to specify the exact CKD stage (since "3-4" is imprecise), but when forced to choose from the hierarchy shown, the correct HCC assignment based on the highest stated stage in the documented range is HCC 327 (CKD stage 4).


NEW QUESTION # 13
Which of the following tools or processes is MOST appropriate to share with providers and administrators during a department meeting when demonstrating documentation and coding patterns?

Answer: C

Explanation:
When the goal is to demonstrate documentation and coding patterns to a mixed audience of providers and administrators, the most effective tool is one that clearly displays comparisons and trends in an easily interpretable way. A bar graph is ideal because it can quickly show differences in rates or volumes-such as unspecified diagnosis utilization, HCC capture rates, query response/agree rates, denial categories, or condition specificity-across providers, clinics, or time periods. This supports outpatient CDI education by making variation visible and actionable while keeping the discussion focused on documentation behaviors and opportunities for improvement. A spaghetti diagram is used for mapping physical workflow movement and inefficiencies, not coding patterns. The PDSA cycle is a structured improvement method for testing changes, but it is not primarily a visualization tool for presenting pattern data. The Donabedian model (structure-process-outcome) is a quality framework that helps organize improvement thinking, but it doesn't display coding/documentation pattern performance as directly as a bar graph.


NEW QUESTION # 14
Along with history and examination, which of the following is considered a key component in reporting evaluation and management services?

Answer: C

Explanation:
For reporting Evaluation and Management (E/M) services, the longstanding "key components" framework recognizes history, examination, and medical decision making (MDM) as the core elements used to determine the appropriate E/M level when the service is not reported based on time. In outpatient CDI education aligned with ACDIS concepts, MDM is emphasized because it reflects the clinician's cognitive work and risk-based thinking: the complexity of problems addressed, the amount/complexity of data reviewed and analyzed (labs, imaging, external notes, independent interpretation), and the risk of complications and/or morbidity from additional testing or treatment. "Review of systems" is a sub-element of the history component, not a separate key component. "Nature of presenting problem" and "coordination of care" can be clinically relevant and may support medical necessity or time-based billing (when documented appropriately), but they are not one of the three key components that define E/M reporting structure. Therefore, the best answer is Medical decision making.
