Today’s show is hosted by ACDIS Associate Editorial Director Linnea Archibald, Editor and Product Coordinator Karla Accorto, and Associate Editor Jess Fluegel. Today’s 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 conversation about competencies and audits with Ella Elizee, MSN, RN, CCDS, CDI educator, and JoAnne Mullins, DNP, MSN, RN, CCDS, CDI team lead and internal auditor, both at Tampa General Hospital in Florida.

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.
