2.4. Medical Coding
Coding is a vital aspect of the
billing procedure of assigning
codes to a health insurance
claims. So actually, whenever a
patient visits a clinic or doctor's
office for a checkup, the visit is
assigned some particular codes
to aid in tracking the causes for
this visit. Coding system
ensures that medical visits are
properly and correctly
categorized for the easy and
fast procedure of insurance
claims. The medical coding experts take care of allocating specific codes such as ICD, CPT, and
HCPCS to each claim. They really work hard for their CPC exam prep to get certification.
The Challenging Factors of Medical Coding
For some people, the most difficult aspect of coding is learning to work on a computer
system. One has to be an intelligent person with an attitude of attention-to-detail in order to
be an efficient coder. In addition, he must be a certified person by passing CPC and COC
exam. One more challenging part is keeping up with latest changes in the industry and
coding regulations. The modifications in medical laws and government policy impact coding,
thus it's vital for a coder to keep up with these changes to evade documenting wrong
information.
