Medical coding is the process of translating clinical documentation into standardized codes from ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS code sets. Payers use these codes to evaluate and reimburse claims submitted by healthcare providers.

We work with ICD-10-CM for diagnosis coding, CPT for professional procedure codes, HCPCS Level II for supplies and equipment, and ICD-10-PCS for inpatient facility coding. We also assign modifiers and E&M levels based on documentation.

Inaccurate coding is one of the leading causes of claim denials and underpayments. Incorrect diagnosis codes, unsupported procedure codes, or missing modifiers can result in denials, reduced payments, and audit exposure. Accurate coding ensures claims reflect services rendered and meet payer requirements.

Yes. We conduct retrospective coding audits to identify patterns of over-coding, under-coding, and documentation deficiencies. Audit findings are used to correct existing claims and improve ongoing coding accuracy.

Our coding staff includes certified coders credentialed through AAPC and AHIMA. We maintain coding credential standards and assign coders based on specialty complexity and clinical area.
