Coding
Print this page
Proper procedural and diagnostic coding is the key to appropriate reimbursement and decreasing audit risk. Our Certified Professional Coders (CPCs) will review your medical record documentation and code selection to ensure you are selecting codes appropriately and consistent with accepted coding guidelines.

In addition, we will determine if your use of mid-level providers such as nurse practitioners and physician assistants is in compliance with both federal and state guidelines. We are available to provide educational training in those areas where your practice is out of compliance.

We also compare your code distributions with your physician peers nationwide by specialty to identify areas of risk or potentially missed revenue. Once this review is completed, we educate both physicians and staff on any problem areas identified.

We also serve as your one stop resource to familiarize yourself with coding changes from year to year. Every January our CPCs summarize the key changes in codes and concepts and provide an interactive educational session perfect for the office coder. Finally, it is rare that the physician in residency is adequately trained on documentation requirements and code selection. New physicians are well served to address this educational gap as they launch their private practice career.
