🌟 ACDIS Member Spotlight: Jeanne Johnson 🌟

Meet Jeanne Johnson, System Director of CDI and Coding at Premier Health! Jeanne's journey into Clinical Documentation Integrity began when she was selected to help launch a CDI program at one of her community hospitals—and she's never looked back.

As a proud ACDIS member for nearly a decade, Jeanne values the organization’s fearless approach to tackling the real-world challenges facing CDI professionals today—from payor complexities to evolving coding guidelines and tech innovations.

What does Jeanne love most about ACDIS? The connections! "I love how ACDIS connects me to others in the industry. ACDIS also has great resources including job descriptions, podcasts, policies and procedures, and the ACDIS forum where questions can be posed to other CDI specialists. It is hard to find just one thing to love, ACDIS offers so much!!"

We're proud to celebrate the incredible contributions of our ACDIS members through our Member Spotlights. Stay tuned for upcoming features that showcase the diverse talent and dedication within our community.
