What does a medical coder do?

From clinical evaluation to hospitalization, the cost of the provider's care is coded by coders referencing medical charts to accelerate claim acceptance and remuneration for providers.

Is medical coding hard?

It's a critical function where timeliness, accuracy, and awareness of compliance counts to ensure errorless billing and timely payment. It demands professionalism to avoid claim denials.

Medical Coding Services

Insurance processing demands a quick and efficient submission of patient information from healthcare organizations. The efficiency in submission determines the rate of approvals and the denials of claims. In such a case, there is an immense need to make the insurance claims filing process highly accurate and fast. Medical coding involves assigning codes and categorizing patient records which makes the medical practice management process proficient. Each patient chart is assigned a particular code that helps in the easy access of medical information for insurance purposes.

Medical coding process at Flatworld Solutions

Let us run you through our medical coding process:

Accessing patient charts

The process starts with you sending us the patient information. The data transfer can be through VPN or you can give us permission to access data from your practice management system. You can totally be at ease about the security of your information as we at Flatworld Solutions hold our integrity high. Also we sign a Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with you to bring a legal binding to our assurance of security.
Pre-coding

At the pre-coding stage, codes are entered referring to insurance companies, doctors, diagnoses and other procedures. Each medical coder will follow these codes throughout the coding process.
ICD and CPT Coding

Our coders follow ICD-10-CM, LMRP, CPT Assistant, and HCPCS Level II medical coding. Codes are assigned and entered in accordance with the procedural codes avoiding any kind of up-coding and down coding errors. The compatibility of diagnoses is verified with the procedural codes that are entered into the system and if there are any discrepancies, the required modifications are made.
Quality Check

An intensive quality analysis check is performed at every stage of the coding process. Our quality experts conduct a multiple and rigorous check for accuracy, avoiding any possibilities of up-coding/down-coding before delivering the coded charts to the client.
Submission of coded charts

Once the coded charts are prepared, they are submitted to the client in an electronic format. These charts are further used in the claims processing phase. If you would want to use our medical billing services, our medical billing team will take charge from this stage.
Client Feedback

At the project completion, client feedback is taken to ensure that our work perfectly matches the client requirements. Suggestions are taken from the client and implemented, thereby assuring maximum client satisfaction.
