What it is:

  • Translation:

    Medical coders review patient records (like doctor's notes, lab results, etc.) and translate the information into universal medical codes. 

  • Purpose:

    These codes are then used for various purposes, including:
    • Billing: Ensuring accurate reimbursement from insurance companies. 
    • Research: Tracking patient outcomes and identifying trends in healthcare. 
    • Population Health: Analyzing health data to improve public health initiatives. 
  • Universal Codes:

    The most common coding systems include:
    • ICD (International Classification of Diseases): Used to classify diseases, illnesses, and causes of death. 
    • CPT (Current Procedural Terminology): Used to identify medical, surgical, and diagnostic procedures and services. 
  • Importance:

    Medical coding is crucial for accurate billing, efficient record-keeping, and data-driven decision-making in healthcare.
