Inger Sivanthi, CEO of DroidalMost documentation problems I have reviewed over the years were never really about documentation itself. The gap between clinical documentation and reimbursement is not growing because technology is failing. This Is Structural, Not a Coding ProblemHere is the uncomfortable truth I will state directly: the growing disconnect between clinical documentation and reimbursement is not primarily a technology failure. As long as clinical documentation is created in one system of logic and reimbursement is judged in another, denials, rework, and revenue leakage will remain built into the process. The gap between clinical documentation and reimbursement will start to close only when health systems stop treating documentation as a downstream cleanup exercise and start treating it as an operational bridge between care delivery and payment.
