Clinical Documentation Specialist

Overview Models produce documentation that reads well and fails on integrity: a note that does not support the code billed, a missed query opportunity, a present-on-admission indicator that shifts an MS-DRG, a casual handling of protected health information. Documentation that does not hold up is a compliance problem waiting to surface, and a specialist like you is who catches it. As a Clinical Documentation Specialist you'll evaluate AI output on documentation integrity and health information management, and write the guidance a seasoned CDI professional would give.

What you’ll actually do Write prompts that probe documentation integrity: clinical validity, query opportunities, specificity, and present-on-admission and MS-DRG impact. Review AI output for documentation that does not support the code, missed queries, and HIPAA and privacy missteps, and rate the reasoning. Write the correct answer when the model falls short, grounded in real CDI and health information practice.

Roles this fits Common backgrounds: CDI Specialist, Health Information Manager, HIPAA Compliance Officer.

What we look for Hands-on experience in clinical documentation integrity or health information management. Familiarity with clinical validation, query practice, and HIPAA and privacy rules. Clear written English: your explanations are the training signal. No degree required. We care about what you can do, not where you learned it.
