Sample coding/CDI e-blasts for physicians

Hospitals and physicians are transitioning from ­paper and hybrid medical records to EHRs. Because physicians are also requesting electronic versions of other information, such as newsletters, consider keeping them informed about documentation and coding through the use of e-blasts: mass emails sent to physicians. An e-blast should have a subject line that ­captures physicians' attention. Beginning with a greeting such as "Dear Dr. _____" is a matter of personal preference. Use these examples of brief e-blast messages pertaining to CDI from HCPro’s CDI Toolkit to create your own messages.
