The deadline to apply for several groups has been extended till Sunday, February 8. Click here to apply today!

Each group is comprised of eight to 12 ACDIS members from all professional and personal backgrounds, geographic regions, and organization types. Right now, ACDIS is calling for volunteer applications for the following groups:

• ACDIS Advisory Board: The board is responsible for providing leadership, expertise, and an industry voice for the ACDIS community through authoring official Position Papers and White Papers, participating on the Quarterly Member Call panel discussions, and more. The Advisory Board membership includes CDI professionals from backgrounds representative of the broader CDI community and this year we are seeking one member from a provider background, one from an HIM background, and two from a clinician background. All finalists will be subject to a public vote by the ACDIS membership this spring.
• Certification Committee: This committee is responsible for maintaining and updating the CCDS and CCDS-O Certification Programs, including the exam and its prerequisites.
• Regulatory Committee: This committee is responsible for reviewing regulatory policy for updates pertinent to the CDI profession and providing summary, interpretation, and analysis to the ACDIS community.

• Resource Library Committee: This committee is responsible for reviewing materials donated to the ACDIS community for publication in the Resource Library for accuracy, compliance, relevance, and effectiveness.
