Medical coding is a critical consideration for healthcare organizations ranging from solo practices to clinics and hospitals. On the surface, the process seems so simple – it’s nothing more than applying universally-accepted alphanumeric codes to the services provided to patients, whether that’s an X-ray, a diagnosis, or equipment sent home with them.

However, that appearance is deceptive. Medical coding can be incredibly complex. It requires abstracting medical information from patient records and other sources of information, as well as a deep understanding of diagnosis and procedure codes. The result? Many healthcare businesses struggle due to incorrect medical coding, which costs them a significant amount of revenue.
