Achieving the ACDIS CCDS-O certificate is an excellent way of paying your way in the tech field. However, to become ACDIS CCDS-O certified, you will have to crack the ACDIS CCDS-O exam. This is a challenging task since preparation for the ACDIS CCDS-O Exam demands an inside-out understanding of CCDS-O domains and many ACDIS CCDS-O test applicants do not have enough time due to their busy routines.

ACDIS Certified Clinical Documentation Specialist-Outpatient Sample Questions (Q106-Q111):

NEW QUESTION # 106
Which of the following lab values, when trended for greater than 3 months, indicates an objective measure of chronic kidney damage?

Answer: B

Explanation:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined by evidence of kidney damage or reduced kidney function that persists for at least three months. An estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR/GFR) below 60 mL/min sustained over that timeframe is an objective indicator of chronically decreased renal function and supports CKD identification and staging in the outpatient record. This is why outpatient CDI programs frequently use trended eGFR as a clinical indicator to prompt documentation of CKD stage (e.g., stage 3a/3b, stage 4, etc.) when appropriate. BNP >1000 is more aligned with heart failure severity/volume status rather than kidney damage. BUN <12 is within/near normal and does not indicate renal impairment (elevated BUN may be seen with renal dysfunction but is less specific and affected by hydration, diet, GI bleed). Glucose >100 is a screening indicator for impaired fasting glucose/prediabetes but does not, by itself, establish chronic kidney damage. Therefore, sustained GFR <60 is the best objective lab-based measure of chronic kidney damage over time.


NEW QUESTION # 107
When compliantly querying providers, CDI specialists or HIM/coding professionals may

Answer: A

Explanation:
Compliant querying principles taught in outpatient CDI allow the CDI/coding professional to present a multiple-choice query that includes reasonable diagnostic options supported by the current encounter's clinical indicators. Including a "new" diagnosis as an option is acceptable when it is clinically supported by documented findings (signs/symptoms, test results, treatments, clinical course) and the query is written in a non-leading manner-typically with balanced options and an "other" and/or "unable to determine" choice. This approach helps the provider clarify the most accurate condition being evaluated or treated without steering toward a particular response. Option A is not compliant because relying solely on prior encounter documentation (without current relevance) risks coding historical conditions that are not addressed today. Option B is generally discouraged because calling out HCC status can be perceived as prompting for payment impact rather than clinical accuracy. Option D is incorrect because including relevant clinical indicators is essential; omitting them weakens the clinical basis and does not make a query less leading-rather, it makes it less defensible.


NEW QUESTION # 108
The majority of E/M services are based on which of the following criteria?

Answer: B

Explanation:
In outpatient CDI and coding education, selecting the correct E/M code starts with identifying the encounter category (e.g., office/outpatient vs inpatient/observation vs ED) and whether the patient is new or established, because these define the applicable CPT code range. Next, the level of service is selected within that range based on the documentation supporting the required elements for that code family. For most E/M services, "site of service" (place/setting) and "new vs established" are foundational code-selection drivers, while "level" is determined by the record's support for the applicable leveling methodology (commonly medical decision making and, when allowed/appropriate, time). Time can be a valid leveling method for many office/outpatient E/M visits, but it is not universally the basis for the majority of E/M services across all categories; it is an alternative pathway when documentation supports it. Physician specialty and patient age do not define the majority of E/M code selection. Therefore, the best overall statement is new/established status + site of service + level of service.


NEW QUESTION # 109
A morbidly obese patient with a BMI of 45 who is reliant on CPAP at night is likely to have which of the following conditions?

Answer: D

Explanation:
Nightly reliance on CPAP in a morbidly obese patient most strongly points to sleep-disordered breathing, and in the context of severe obesity (BMI 45), it raises concern for obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS), which is characterized by alveolar hypoventilation (chronic hypoventilation with hypercapnia) that is not fully explained by other pulmonary or neuromuscular causes. While CPAP is commonly prescribed for obstructive sleep apnea, severe obesity increases the likelihood of associated hypoventilation physiology; in outpatient CDI review, this becomes a documentation opportunity to ensure the provider specifies whether the patient has OSA alone versus OSA with OHS/alveolar hypoventilation, because the latter reflects higher clinical complexity and requires clear monitoring/management (e.g., ABGs or bicarbonate trends, symptoms of hypoventilation, adherence, need for BiPAP). Heart failure and pulmonary edema are not implied by CPAP use, and essential hypertension is common in obesity but not the condition most specifically linked to CPAP dependence. Therefore, alveolar hypoventilation is the best supported answer.


NEW QUESTION # 110
Which of the following BEST represents performance metrics important to an outpatient CDI program?

Answer: A

Explanation:
Outpatient CDI performance is best measured by metrics that reflect ambulatory documentation quality, risk-adjustment accuracy, and provider engagement. HCC capture rate is central because outpatient CDI frequently supports risk adjustment (e.g., CMS-HCC/HHS-HCC) and aims to ensure chronic conditions are accurately documented, linked, and reported when they are actively managed. Unspecified code utilization rate is a practical quality metric for provider education because high unspecified use often signals missed clinical specificity (severity, laterality, acuity, manifestations, staging) that can reduce coding accuracy, obscure patient complexity, and weaken data used for benchmarking and quality reporting. Query response rate is also a core operational KPI: it reflects provider participation, workflow effectiveness, and the CDI team's ability to obtain timely clarifications that support compliant coding and complete clinical representation. In contrast, Medicare CMI and severity of illness are predominantly inpatient-focused constructs and are not the primary yardsticks for outpatient CDI program success. While aggregate RAF and quality indicators matter, the best "program performance" set is the one directly tied to outpatient CDI levers: HCC capture, specificity/unspecified reduction, and query responsiveness.
