CDI + AI at Cape Fear: An integrated blueprint for clinical excellence and revenue integrity


Tuesday, March 24th, 2026 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT

Hospitals deliver complex care every day — but when documentation, coding and revenue cycle teams operate in silos, financial and quality performance suffer.

Incomplete documentation, reactive CDI workflows and disconnected systems can lead to case mix inaccuracy, preventable denials and delayed reimbursement. At the same time, clinicians face mounting documentation burden that limits engagement and productivity.

Cape Fear Valley Health took a different approach.

By integrating AI-enabled CDI and revenue integrity capabilities into everyday workflows, the health system built a model that connects clinical care with financial stewardship. AI-powered prioritization, evidence sheets, auto-suggested DRGs and advanced code sequencing help teams reason across the full patient record, surface documentation opportunities and strengthen performance before claims are submitted.

Attendees will learn:
 
  • How to operationalize AI across CDI, coding and revenue integrity workflows
  • Ways to improve case mix accuracy while easing clinician burden
  • How proactive safeguards can help prevent denials and revenue leakage
  • Tactics to break down silos and accelerate reimbursement
