Preferred: Experience using the GWTG registry platform, CSTK abstraction tools, vendor platforms, quality reporting system, and /or related data collection tools. Experience with IRR, QA review, audit validation, and/or abstraction accuracy review. Screening & Onboarding: Qualified candidates will complete an initial phone screen and a GWTG STK/CSTK-specific abstraction assessment. The assessment is designed to evaluate understanding of registry specifications, abstraction judgment, accuracy, and completion speed. ADN does not provide basic GWTG STK/CSTK abstraction training, so candidates should already have the abstraction experience needed for the role. After hire, ADN provides onboarding to ADN processes, client systems, EHR access, documentation tendencies, and other client-specific workflows. Why This Role May Be a Good Fit: This position may be a strong fit for experienced GWTG STK/CSTK abstractors who enjoy independent work, flexible scheduling, stroke registry chart review, healthcare quality reporting, and contributing to meaningful work that supports hospitals and patient care. ADN offers a knowledgeable and supportive team environment, multiple abstraction opportunities, and potential growth into lead or expanded quality roles for strong performers.
