There are thousands of medical codes – one for nearly every type of health care service, procedure and even for medical equipment.
Physicians and hospitals depend on accurate coding to receive proper reimbursement, making the role of the coder a valued one.
Coding accurately is not easy. The coder must carefully read the doctor’s and nurse’s notes to precisely determine the services received by the patient. The coder must also understand private payer policies and government regulations for accurate coding and billing. By some estimates, inaccurate or incomplete coding costs the doctors thousands of dollars each year in lost payments. Without competent coders, providers run the risk of losing revenue.
