Medical Coding Services. Cracking the code for… coding? It’s not “a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.” (as Winston Churchill said during the Battle of Britain) But it’s close. It’s called Medical Coding Data Entry, and it’s as slippery to unravel as any riddle. But you have access to the key: Medical Coding Outsourcing using a HIPPA Compliant Medical Coding Company. And yes, that is a mouthful. what it means is taking your in-house medical coding and using an Outsourced Medical Coding Service.
You may ask “what’s that?”. Here’s the story. Medical coding is the transformation of healthcare diagnosis, procedures, medical services, and equipment into Universal Medical Alphanumeric Codes. The diagnoses and procedure codes are taken from medical record documentation, such as transcription of physician’s notes, laboratory, and radiologic results.
Medical coding professionals make sure the codes are applied correctly during the medical coding data entry, which includes collating information from the documentation, assigning the correct codes, and creating a claim.
Details, Details, Details.
The insurance industry runs on details. Medical Coding Services a is a very complex task because of the detail of services used in claims. For example, CPT (Certified Professional Coder) 28470, means: “Fracture and/or Dislocation Procedures on the Foot and Toes.” If an accident caused the fracture, there are additional codes:
- V00-V09 Pedestrian injured in a transport accident.
- V10-V19 Pedal cycle rider injured in a transport accident.
- V20-V29 Motorcycle rider injured in a transport accident.
- V30-V39 Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in a transport accident.
- V40-V49 Car occupant injured in a transport accident.
And many more codes for even more specifics. Maybe it is “a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.”

Claim processing begins with a healthcare provider submitting a claim. It includes review, investigation, adjustment, remittance or denial of the claim
These are code sets used to classify medical diagnoses, procedures, diagnostic tests, treatments, equipment, and supplies
RCM begins when a patient is first scheduled for an appointment and continues through the services provided, to the final billing
This includes Insurance Verification, Customer Billing, Tracking of Accounts Receivable, Order Management, Account Receivables Follow-up, and Denial Management
