Procedure documentation and coding

Standardize procedure terms, coding, and documentation

We ensure your EHR data is structured and mapped to the right codes to minimize the maintenance of healthcare dictionaries and support reimbursement and reporting.
Challenges

Procedure and lab dictionary files easily become unorganized and outdated

Constant code changes, thousands of chargeable services, and complex mappings frequently lead to vague terms and missing information. Manual data building, mapping, and upkeep demand substantial resources and can result in poor documentation, patient safety issues, redundant lab testing, system integration issues, and imprecise eCQM and HEDIS reporting.

Inaccurate procedure data impacts revenue cycle and financial outcomes

Outdated and incorrectly mapped codes increase rework, drive up denials, and delay reimbursements. This, in turn, impacts cash flow, creating financial risk across revenue cycle operations.
