LET’S WALK YOU THROUGH THE MEDICAL CODING PROCESS

CODING THE TRANSCRIBED REPORTS

The coding process begins when an operative report or charge sheet is batched and arrives on the desk of a coder. His job is to extract information from this Physician’s report on the charge sheet and code it according to specified guidelines

PROCEDURAL AND DIAGNOSTIC CODING

InGen LLC certified medical coders handle Procedural and Diagnostic Coding using references such as ICD-10-CM, LMRP, CPT Assistant, HCPCS Level II. Here’s what happens:

♦  After a patient visits a physician, a chart is prepared and given to Medical Coders, whose job is to:

  • Read the chart

  • Match the problem with its corresponding numerical code from the most current ICD-10 (International Classifications of Diseases) Book

  • Assign the proper diagnosis code with its numerical code from the CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) Book. The Coding team checks the compatibility of the diagnosis with the procedure code.

SUPER-BILL/PATIENT ENCOUNTER FORM

These two codes (Procedural and Diagnostic codes) and any modifier codes that may be needed to better describe the medical problem and its treatment are placed on a patient encounter form or super-bill. The patient’s chart is then re-filed and the encounter form/super-bill is given to a medical billing team.

♦  For billing purposes, the use of the ICD codes, when juxtaposed with CPT codes, tells the payer

  • What service has been provided

  • Lists the diagnosis, symptom, complaint, condition or problem (e.g., the reason for performing the service).

This information is essential for accurate, timely and optimized third-party reimbursement.

QUALITY CHECKS 

Certified coders regularly monitor the work of our coders and external coding and compliance experts periodically audit the coding department.
