Today’s show is hosted by ACDIS Associate Editorial Director Linnea Archibald, Editor and Product Coordinator Karla Kozak, and Associate Editor Jess Fluegel. The show provides a glimpse behind the scenes of all things ACDIS in a more casual, conversational format than our other podcast series. It also features a portion of our conversation with members of the ACDIS CDI Leadership Council—Angelica Cage, MBA, BSN, CCDS, CCS, CDIP, CDI director at Tufts Medicine, and Joe Freet, RN, CCDS, CCS, the inpatient CDI manager at M Health Fairview in Minnesota—about the 2023 CDI Salary Survey results.

Our intro and outro music for the ACDIS Podcast is “medianoche” by Dee Yan-Kay and our ad music is “Take Me Higher” by Jahzzar, both obtained from the Free Music Archive.
