Medical coders read a patient's medical chart and analyze it, determining the patient's diagnoses and any procedures performed. They then categorize those diagnoses and procedures according to a national classification system, assigning a specific numeric or alphanumeric code to each diagnosis or procedure.
It's a huge relief for the healthcare staffs after the implementation of these medical coders as it does everything itself there is no need for any manual reporting. Everything is well systematic and linked with the electronic health record that makes the work simple and easy . A few management considerations or concerns that I have are :-
- risk of hacking the software
- breech of the patient health information
- loss of patient information
- locking of the software
- about its cost and maintainence
