What You’ll Do

  • Build and run onboarding for new Clinical Documentation Specialists (CDSs)
  • Lead and coordinate CDI training, mentoring, and ongoing education programs
  • Deliver customized education to CDS/coders, providers, nursing, quality, and other clinical groups (1:1 and group)
  • Recommend documentation improvements and compliant queries to capture severity, acuity, risk of mortality, and accurate DRGs
  • Educate on CDI workflows, policies, and SOPs, and help maintain/refresh them

What You Need

Nice to Have

  • Experience across multiple EMRs (Epic, Meditech, Cerner)
  • Strong presentation skills and PowerPoint comfort
  • Detail-oriented, self-motivated, organized

Quick reality check
This is not an “entry remote healthcare” role. The gate is real: MD or RN + CDI/coding experience + cert(s). If you don’t already have that license and background, skip it and aim at billing/AR/auth roles. If you do, this is one of the cleaner “teach, standardize, audit, and raise the quality bar” CDI paths.
