BCBSM offers inpatient documentation, coding accuracy training

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan is offering online training to assist with inpatient documentation and coding accuracy. We want to help our hospitals by aligning their documentation with reportable diagnoses in accordance with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services requirements.

These improvements in documentation and coding accuracy will ensure better quality peer comparisons, population management, risk scores, reimbursement and incentive distribution.

The training is available on web-DENIS:

  • Log in to web-DENIS.
  • Click on BCBSM Provider Publications and Resources.
  • Click on Newsletters and Resources.
  • In Provider Training or the What’s New section, under Inpatient Coding Initiative presentation, click on your preferred format.

For your convenience, the presentation is also available for viewing on your smart phone or tablet.

If you have any questions, please contact your provider consultant.
