About the role

CDI Specialist Ready to translate your acute care experience into a strategic healthcare role? We’re hiring a Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) Specialist to join our dynamic team! Why This Role Matters Every patient story deserves to be told accurately in the medical record. As a CDI Specialist, you aren't just looking at charts—you are the vital link between clinical care, quality metrics, and accurate coding. By translating complex clinical indicators into precise documentation, you ensure our hospital accurately reflects patient acuity and delivers the highest quality outcomes. The Impact You'll Make Be the Clinical Detective: Analyze inpatient records concurrently to spot documentation gaps, identifying missing diagnoses supported by clinical data. Partner with Physicians: Move past standard "chart reviewing" to become a trusted advisor to our providers, facilitating queries and offering meaningful documentation education. Drive Compliance & Quality: Collaborate with HIM and Coding departments to ensure organizational alignment and stellar quality outcomes.

Who You Are: A Licensed Clinician: You hold a current NYS RN, PA, or NP license. Acute Care Veteran: You have at least 3 years of hands-on experience in an acute care setting (bedside, case management, etc.) and know pathology inside and out. An Excellent Communicator: You are confident, articulate, and comfortable building rapport or holding educational conversations with medical staff. A Critical Thinker: You look beyond the surface of a chart to connect the dots between clinical indicators and final diagnoses.

Note: Prior CDI experience is fantastic, but if you have strong clinical judgment and a passion for accuracy, we want to hear from you!

What We Offer: Competitive compensation and robust benefits packaging. A collaborative, cross-functional team environment. Opportunities for professional growth and continuous learning. Salary Range 105,000.00/Yr. - $150,000/Yr. This range serves as a good faith estimate and actual pay will encompass a number of factors, including a candidate’s qualifications, skills, competencies and experience. The salary range or rate listed does not include any bonuses/incentive, or other forms of compensation that may be applicable to this job and it does not include the value of benefits. At Catholic Health, we believe in a people-first approach. In addition to the estimated base pay provided, Catholic Health offers generous benefits packages, generous tuition assistance, a defined benefit pension plan, and a culture that supports professional and educational growth.
