MEDICAL CODING
Medical Coding is the transformation of healthcare diagnosis, procedures, medical services and equipment into universal medical alphanumeric codes. A Medical Coder is responsible for assigning the correct code to the procedures or the services a patient received.
A Medical Coder should posses a good knowledge in medical terminology, anatomy and physiology. A Medical Coder should act according to the guidelines and the laws of coding systems like ICD, CPT and HCPCS. Strong communication skill and computer proficiency will also provide a plus point in a medical coder. Knowledge in of HIPAA regulations and patient privacy laws also helps.
The primary duty of a medical coder is to gather all the relevant documentation required of the patients from the physicians and other healthcare professionals and assign codes to make documentation of billing information easier. Another important duty of this professional is to enter all the data with the help of a computer maintaining a database and to ensure these medical reports in a computer system.
