Medical coding
Accurate ICD-10 diagnosis coding by certified coders, so every claim shows the medical necessity payers need.
Our coders hold AAPC certification, a widely respected credential for coding, billing, auditing and documentation. We require it because it shows. Our coders select the ICD-10 codes that accurately describe the care each patient received.
Accurate ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases) coding is essential. Medical coding turns diagnoses, procedures, services and equipment into standard alphanumeric codes that payers understand. Our team reviews your documentation, assigns the correct codes and prepares claims that insurance carriers can pay.
Our automated workflows save you time and money. We code for physician practices and hospitals, including evaluation & management, emergency medicine, surgery, pathology and radiology, and we update our coding resources every year to stay current with industry standards.
