質問 # 81
A physician documents acute kidney injury. The patient's creatinine is 0.8 mg/dL on admission, 0.9 mg/dL the following day, and 0.8 mg/dL at discharge. Urine output remains normal and no renal treatment is provided.
What is the BEST CDI action?
正解：C
解説：
A clinical validation query is appropriate because the documented diagnosis appears inconsistent with the available clinical evidence. The creatinine values remain essentially unchanged, urine output is normal, and there is no apparent treatment or monitoring consistent with acute renal dysfunction.
The CDI specialist cannot simply delete the diagnosis because providers are responsible for establishing diagnoses. Conversely, a diagnosis should not automatically be accepted when substantial clinical evidence raises a legitimate question about its validity.
A compliant query would present the documented AKI together with the pertinent renal findings and request clarification. The provider could confirm AKI and provide supporting clinical reasoning, revise the diagnosis, state that it was ruled out, or document another condition.
Assigning chronic kidney disease would be equally inappropriate because CKD requires evidence of chronic kidney abnormality and cannot be inferred from these laboratory values.
The August 2026 ACDIS/AHIMA query guidance supersedes prior versions and remains the foundational standard for clinical validation and documentation clarification.
Clinical validation protects data integrity because diagnoses influence reimbursement, quality reporting, severity measurement, utilization analysis, and downstream patient information.

The table below shows physician performance:
Which of the following physicians will have the most favorable mortality rate on a public website, such as Healthgrades.com?
正解：C
解説：
Physician 4 has the most favorable risk-adjusted mortality rate, at 1.3, compared with Physician 1 at 1.5, Physician 2 at 2.0, and Physician 3 at 2.5. Although Physician 1 has fewer observed deaths and an observed mortality rate of 1.6%, public outcome comparisons commonly incorporate risk adjustment rather than relying solely on raw mortality. Risk adjustment attempts to account for differences in patient complexity, comorbid disease burden, demographic factors, and other characteristics that influence expected outcomes.
This is directly relevant to CDI because incomplete documentation of clinically significant comorbidities can understate patient severity and therefore adversely affect the expected mortality component of risk-adjusted performance calculations. Conversely, accurate documentation allows coded data to represent the actual severity and risk of the population being treated. Healthgrades specifically states that its mortality methodology adjusts for patient risk factors to permit more meaningful comparisons of clinical outcomes.
The CCDS content outline specifically requires knowledge of mortality indices, severity of illness/risk of mortality, physician performance, and the effect of documentation on publicly reported data.
CCDS Reference Topics: Impact of reportable diagnoses on quality of care; Healthcare facility CDI program analysis; mortality index and risk adjustment.

質問 # 83
Respiratory failure is documented in a patient's initial progress notes. There are no clinical indicators in the record to support this diagnosis. According to the AHIMA/ACDIS Practice Brief Guidelines for Achieving a Compliant Query Practice, the MOST appropriate action by the CDI specialist is which of the following?
正解：C
解説：
This scenario requires a clinical validation query. The diagnosis of respiratory failure is documented, but the remainder of the record lacks clinical evidence supporting it. CDI should not automatically accept the diagnosis solely because it appears in a progress note, nor should the specialist unilaterally remove or invalidate the provider's diagnosis.
The appropriate process is to present relevant patient-specific clinical information objectively and ask the responsible provider to clarify whether respiratory failure remains clinically appropriate. A compliant validation query should permit the provider to confirm the diagnosis, document another condition, indicate that it was ruled out, or provide another clinically appropriate response.
Looking only for CPAP documentation is inadequate because CPAP can be used for multiple conditions and its presence or absence does not independently determine whether respiratory failure exists. Similarly, simply refusing to code the diagnosis without seeking clarification bypasses the provider's clinical judgment and the organization's validation process.
The 2026 ACDIS/AHIMA query guidance is now the current foundational standard and supersedes earlier versions of the practice brief.
CCDS Reference Topics: Clinical validation; compliant querying; unsupported diagnoses; documentation integrity.

質問 # 84
At discharge, the physician documents, "Possible gram-negative pneumonia." No later documentation rules out the condition. How should the diagnosis generally be handled for an inpatient admission?
正解：B
解説：
In the inpatient hospital setting, an uncertain diagnosis documented at discharge using terminology such as possible, probable, suspected, likely, questionable, compatible with, or consistent with may generally be coded as though the condition existed or was established.
Therefore, "possible gram-negative pneumonia" may be coded in accordance with the inpatient uncertain- diagnosis guideline when it remains the final diagnostic conclusion.
The rationale is that inpatient diagnostic evaluation and treatment frequently occur before absolute confirmation is available, and the patient may have been managed as though the suspected disease were present.
This rule is materially different from outpatient coding, where uncertain diagnoses are generally not coded as established and the documented signs, symptoms, or confirmed conditions are reported instead.
The presence of the uncertain terminology alone does not mandate a query. A query would be appropriate if documentation is contradictory, if the diagnosis is clinically unsupported, or if another documentation issue prevents correct code assignment.
CDI specialists need to recognize this inpatient-specific rule because unnecessary queries for "possible" or
"probable" diagnoses can create physician burden without improving coding accuracy.
CCDS Reference Topics: Uncertain inpatient diagnoses; discharge documentation; pneumonia; inpatient versus outpatient coding.

質問 # 85
The PRIMARY goal of a CDI specialist's work is to support complete and specific documentation that results in:
正解：D
解説：
The fundamental objective of clinical documentation integrity is to ensure that the health record accurately represents the patient's clinical condition, including severity of illness, complexity, acuity, diagnoses, treatments, and outcomes. Reimbursement is an important downstream consequence of documentation and coding, but maximizing reimbursement is not the primary professional objective of CDI.
The ACDIS CCDS framework describes the CDI specialist as applying clinical knowledge to determine how documentation translates into coded data and educating providers so the record appropriately reflects severity, complexity, and acuity. This distinction is critical from an ethics and compliance perspective. A CDI program must pursue documentation accuracy whether clarification raises, lowers, or leaves reimbursement unchanged.
Reducing HACs is principally a clinical-quality and patient-safety function. CDI can improve the accuracy with which HACs are identified and reported, but it does not directly prevent those conditions. Similarly, improved provider communication is an important mechanism used by CDI professionals, but it is a means toward accurate documentation rather than the primary endpoint.
Therefore, A most accurately captures the broad clinical, coding, quality, and compliance purpose of CDI.
CCDS Reference Topics: Professionalism, ethics, and compliance; Medical record documentation; goals of CDI beyond reimbursement.
