What is a 'closed chart' in CDI analytics?

• A. Chart that has never been reviewed
• B. Chart with incorrect codes
• C. A chart with all queries resolved and codes finalized
• D. A chart that has been sent to payer without review

Answer: (C)

In CDI analytics, a closed chart means the chart has completed the review process: all queries have been resolved, responses documented, and the coding finalized and locked. There are no outstanding issues or edits needed, and the chart is considered ready for submission or reporting. This status signals that the documentation accurately supports the codes and that the record is complete. If a chart still has open queries or provisional or incorrect codes, or if it’s been sent to a payer without final review, it would not be closed.
