Medical Coders work at hospitals, clinics and other healthcare settings to facilitate communication with insurance companies. They spend most of their time interpreting patient files and manually updating them with medical codes. When assigning a code to a patient’s file, Medical Coders use established systems that make it easy for insurers to recognize what kinds of treatment they cover under a patient’s plan. Medical Coders also gather documentation to validate their coding choices and argue against any wrongfully denied claims. They analyze all parts of a patient’s visit, including diagnostic tests, consultations, in-office procedures and prescribed medication.
A Medical Coder, or Certified Professional Coder, is responsible for reviewing a patient’s medical records after a visit and translating the information into codes that insurers use to process claims from patients. Their duties include confirming treatments with medical staff, identifying missing information and submitting forms to insurers for reimbursement.
