Once upon a time, in a faraway land brimming with magical possibilities and foes of mythical size, the kingdom of healthcare was in desperate need of medical documentation integrity. But who would answer the call? ACDIS is excited to share the official 2026 CDI Week theme: “Knights of the CDI Round Table.”

A big part of the education we offer for CDI Week comes from the industry data collected from the CDI community in the CDI Week Industry Survey! The survey is open from now until July 6, so we hope you’ll be among those to contribute: https://hubs.la/Q04jZ3DQ0

It is hard to believe you can pack so much CDI education, insight, networking, excitement, memories, and—this year especially—empowerment into just four days, BUT we sure did!

Each year we are reminded of what an honor it is to work so closely with so many CDI professionals from around the country and the annual ACDIS conference is a shining example of that. Thank you to the 1,200+ CDI professionals who were with us in Chicago, to all the amazing ACDIS members who make up the association, and to every CDI professional out there advancing the profession.

We can wait to do it all again in 2027, next time in Las Vegas! https://hubs.la/Q04hbhKr0
