Yes, it is but CDS (Clinical Decision Support) is documenting what you used to come to your conclusions, i.e. I used UpToDate as a source or even quoting it. It contains 5 rights: The right information, to the right person, in the right format, through the right channel, at the right time in the workflow.
It is not the same as MDM where you document what you were thinking and how you arrived at it. It tends to be used to validate or invalidate certain diagnoses.
Plus, if you bring up MDM, many physicians will know what it stands for and what it is where almost none will know what CDS is the acronym for.
