This webinar will include examples and lessons learned from various hospital experiences. It will reveal strategies to rethink processes, data flow and relationships to enhance and sustain this critical juncture of providers' operations through collaboration and data driven decision making.

This webinar reviews the HCC categories and the role they play in risk-adjusted payment models. We discuss the impact of clinical documentation on coding and the resulting HCC assignment, and review best practices for assigning & sequencing or querying for appropriate diagnosis codes.
