July 15, 2021: Sarah Simone, "The Role of Clinical Documentation & Quality Data Integrity to Ensure a STAR Performance"
Summary of Northern Westchester Hospital’s initiative to build a multi-disciplinary review team to ensure accuracy of publicly reported data to impact STAR ratings. While the team focuses on several quality indicators, this presentation will focus on PSIs.
Sarah Simone, BSN RN CCDS CDIP is a Clinical Documentation Specialist at Northern Westchester Hospital – Northwell Health in Mt. Kisco, NY. She is a member of the CDI- and Quality- department-driven multi-disciplinary team for review of quality measures, and leads the process for the CDI team. This collaborative effort, demonstrating the unique niche of CDI nursing and its impact on the organization, was selected for a Magnet exemplar and presented during the re-designation survey for Northern Westchester Hospital in June 2021.
Sarah holds a Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing from SUNY Binghamton, graduating in 2007. She is a member of the national AHIMA and ACDIS, and also the NY and NC chapters of ACDIS.
