The CSI Difference
CSI Companies is making a distinct impression with conversations regarding its education platform, CSI University. Attendees have the opportunity to learn more about CSI’s academies, as well as the immersive learning tools used to help students retain knowledge and gain hands-on coding experience. The platform is creating an interactive pathway for coders to elevate their careers, leading to improved patient outcomes and financial results for healthcare organizations that hire them.
During a captivating presentation on Monday, Lou Ann Wiedemann, CSI’s Director of Provider Coding, emphasized the critical role of skilled coders. She stated, “Coding is all about supporting the patient’s story and painting an accurate picture.”
In addition to showcasing their own insights, the CSI team continues to immerse themselves in the sessions of other industry leaders. In the opening session, the keynote speaker, Zeev Neuwirth, discussed the shocking statistics of avoidable deaths every year (400,000). He goes on to state, “Two out of every three healthcare workers experience burnout.” These types of conversations make CSI even more committed to sharing its solutions and staying at the forefront of healthcare innovation.
