🧠 Norwood Mastery:The Work of Mid-Revenue Professionals Comes Down to Values
By Brian Murphy

In the high-stakes world of mid-revenue cycle—where coders, auditors, CDI leaders, and execs face constant pressure—ethics still matter.

This piece is your reminder that doing the right thing is always a personal choice, even when the system pushes back.
⚖️ Code that unsupported MCC under pressure? That’s on you.
💥 Deny a valid claim to meet audit quotas? Still on you.
🚨 Ignore compliance red flags to protect revenue? You own that, too.
Whether you’re in coding, auditing, or hospital leadership, character is your legacy.

This isn’t just marketing fluff—it’s echoed by industry leaders like Michael Dowling, President/CEO of Northwell Health, who says:
“Values matter. Now more than ever... decency, respect, integrity, honesty and trust.”

Brian Murphy shares a candid take on how we all navigate the pressure—and why it’s worth pausing to ask: What kind of professional do I want to be?

One experienced auditor.
$1.5M in reimbursement impact.

That’s the power of fresh eyes, deep expertise, and data-backed review.

A large integrated healthcare organization partnered with Norwood after independent audit findings revealed:
• Missed secondary diagnoses
• Improperly sequenced principal diagnoses
• Underrepresented SOI/ROM
• Revenue left on the table

Over just nine months, one Norwood inpatient coding auditor delivered:
📊 1,373 cases audited
📈 279 DRG recommendations
💰 $1,529,000 reimbursement impact

The takeaway?
Great auditors don’t just review charts—they uncover opportunity, strengthen accuracy, and drive measurable ROI.

If your organization is wondering whether an external perspective is worth it, the numbers speak for themselves.

🧠 Norwood Mastery: Experts Propose Redefining Obesity—What It Could Mean for CDI and Coding

By Brian Murphy

🔗 Read the full article: www.norwood.com/experts-pitch-obesity-diagnosis-overhaul-could-alter-cdi-and-coding-work/

A new proposal could redefine obesity diagnosis—and reshape how it's captured in documentation, coding, and reimbursement.

A global commission published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology suggests a shift beyond BMI toward a two-tier system:
🔹 Clinical Obesity: Chronic illness with end-organ impact (e.g., stroke, renal failure)
🔹 Preclinical Obesity: Excess adiposity without immediate organ dysfunction, but elevated risk

The authors argue that BMI alone shouldn’t drive individual diagnosis or care decisions, and that a more nuanced view of obesity is overdue—similar to the shift in how we evaluate malnutrition.

Brian Murphy explores:
Why this proposal makes sense clinically
How it could influence CC/MCC capture and risk scoring
What coders and CDI teams should start thinking about now

A query isn’t just a query anymore.

Today’s physician queries influence:
• Clinical precision
• Risk adjustment accuracy
• Regulatory compliance
• Quality reporting
• Longitudinal record integrity

And with new ACDIS/AHIMA guidance now reshaping compliant query practices, CDI and HIM leaders can’t afford to treat queries as simple reimbursement tools anymore.

In this Norwood Special Report, we explore:
✔ What the new guidance actually means
✔ Yes/no queries and direct clarification questions
✔ AI-powered query compliance concerns
✔ Outpatient CDI and chronic condition clarification
✔ Why query leadership now extends beyond CDI teams alone

Whether you’re leading CDI, HIM, coding, compliance, or physician engagement efforts, this paper was written for you.
