Learning Objectives
At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to:
• Appreciate the impact of the PSI 90 composite on hospital reimbursement
under the Hospital Acquired Condition Reduction Program and the Hospital
Value Based Purchasing Program
• Understand PSI 90 measure specifications and risk adjustment methodology
• Explain the impact that coding and clinical documentation improvement can
have on PSI 90 performance
• Identify common coding and clinical documentation vulnerabilities for one of
the PSIs in the composite - PSI 15
• Initiate engagement of the coding and clinical documentation improvement
program in PSI 90 performance improvement efforts

• A weighted composite of 11 Patient Safety Indicators
• Use of a composite: – Increases statistical precision due to increased sample size
– Supports issue of competing priorities where more than one
component measure may be important
– Assists consumers select healthcare, provider allocate resources, payers
assess performance

Procedure Op Note Documentation
Lap converted to open
appendectomy and repair of
bladder injury
“The appendix was ultimately identified and dissected away
from these structures. In the process of doing this and
identifying the abscessed cavity, there was a tremendous
amount of necrotic material overlying the bladder. In debriding
this material, the bladder was entered. It appeared that the
bladder wall was also involved, and a portion of the bladder
wall appeared nonviable. At this point Urology was consulted
for assistance in repairing the bladder.
Lap gastric band removal,
intraoperative endoscopy repair
“The endoscope was then removed and at this point we noticed
a small 1 cm laceration in the inferior medical portion of the
spleen that was actively bleeding; pressure was held on the
site for 10 minutes. An additional Evicel was applied over the
Surgicel until the area was hemostatic.”
Right ankle arthrodesis, right
distal tib-fib arthrodesis, removal
of hardware from right fibula,
removal of hardware right tibia
“During this section due to significant amount of scar tissue her
peroneous brevis tendon was entrapped in scar tissue and
ruptured while it was being released.” “Prior to closure of skin
and subcutaneous tissues we did repair the peroneous brevis
tendon, which was quite easy to accomplish.”

• Definition of CDI Program
An organizational system chartered to improve capture of clinical
documentation and ICD code assignment
• Common Organizational Objectives
■ Accurate, optimal reimbursement for provided services
■ Minimal delays in billing due to post-discharge documentation queries
■ Minimal re-bills associated with post-discharge documentation and
associated ICD-code revisions
■ Reduction of denials by payers and other external review organizations
■ Accurate, optimal quality profiles for claims based outcomes
• CDI Program
■ Coding team and processes
■ Clinical documentation specialist team and processes
■ Performance management

What Measures? Risk Adjustment?
• Numerous methodologies for quality measures • Each system has its own methodologies • Lack of agreement among the national hospital rating systems • Example: Only 10% of hospitals rated as a high performer by one rating
system were rated as a high performer by other leading national hospital rating systems
