Customer Reviews
Awesome resource for CDI RNs & Coders
Relevant CDI/Coding topics with a higher-level look at the importance of our work and the purpose we can find in it. I do wish they would introduce themselves and state what role they play and experience they have before jumping into the topic to provide better understanding.
Great Podcast
This is a great podcast if you are in the CDI, HIM, or Quality arena of healthcare. Very timely topics with knowledgeable hosts and guests. There’s not another CDI podcast out there like this one!!
A “must listen” for CDI and Coding professionals
I always enjoy hearing Amy and Allen’s opinions on trending topics. I learn something every time I listen which I think is the mark of great podcast. Keep it up peeps!
