Medical Coding Services
Our medical coding professionals help ensure that codes are applied correctly during the medical billing process, which includes abstracting the information from documentation, assigning the appropriate codes, and creating a claim to be paid by insurance carriers.
Accurate medical coding lets the insurance service provider know the illness or injury a patient is suffering from and the method of treatment used to treat it and make the appropriate payment. The importance of medical coding can be gauged from the fact that insurance companies, clearinghouses, and other healthcare payers depend on medical coders to accurately describe what medical services, procedures, and medical devices were provided to a patient to identify an ailment. Besides the insertion of wrong medical codes, insurance claims may be denied or rejected on the grounds of incorrect personal (name, DOB, insurance ID, etc.) or provider information (address, name, etc.), leaving out codes altogether, or entering fraudulent codes.
Accurate medical coding allows medical insurance service providers to know the exact illness a patient is suffering from as well as figure out the precise method of treatment used to treat the ailment and make payment accordingly. The importance of accurate medical coding in healthcare can be gauged from the fact that it ensures there is no medical coding oversight that can adversely impact the revenues of medical service providers.
