CDI coordinators, quality, and mortality reviews

The ACDIS Podcast

Today’s guest is Anne Espinoza, RN, MBA, CCDS, CDIP, the executive director of clinical documentation, denials management, utilization review and patient education at Froedtert & MCW in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Today’s show is part of the “Leadership with Linnea” series. In every episode of this series, ACDIS Associate Editorial Director Linnea Archibald is joined by one guest from the ACDIS Leadership Council ranks or a contributor from one of our ACDIS publications to discuss a topic relevant to leaders in the industry, whether or not they currently hold a traditional management title. Our intro and outro music for the ACDIS Podcast is “medianoche” by Dee Yan-Kay and our ad music is “Take Me Higher” by Jahzzar, both obtained from the Free Music Archive.
