Has anyone gone from Utilization Review to being an RN Coder? Are there any advantages to changing? Salary comparison?

I have. Case management/Utilization and CDI (Clinical Documentation Integrity) go hand in hand. As a CDI Specialist you will audit physician documentation for coding missed opportunities and calculate a DRG (diagnosis related group) based on your findings. The hospital sees the monetary value of that account from your work. Also DRGs have an average length of stay which case management and utilization work primarily off of. Together these departments work to cut costs by streamlining treatment of an inpatient.

Salary-wise, negotiate up. I was able to negotiate about a +4 dollar an hour raise. CDI is very specialized and will take you at least a few months to be somewhat independent, and you will most likely be part of a smaller team.

What kind of medical floor experience specifically are you speaking of/or you think is beneficial?

Just a quick background analysis. I have medical transcription experience, 9+ years experience as Medical Assistant/clinical coordinator outpatient facility and assist in spinal injections/ interventional spinal procedures as a stand in uncertified surgical tech as well. I basically ran the 4 provider medical office, dabbling in billing their notes and clinical note completion assuring proper documentation. I have a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences with a Minor in Public Health.

With your knowledge, what's your assessment and would a company/hospital deem my skills transferable?
