Medical coding is the process of translating healthcare services, diagnoses, procedures, and equipment into universal alphanumeric codes (like ICD, CPT) that allow for standardized data collection, medical billing, insurance reimbursement, and public health analysis, acting as a crucial link between patient records, providers, and payers. Coders review physician notes and health records to assign these codes, ensuring accurate claims and facilitating the smooth operation of the healthcare system. Key Functions & Uses: Billing & Reimbursement: Codes tell insurance companies what services were rendered so providers can get paid. Data & Statistics: Used for tracking diseases, treatment outcomes, and population health. Medical Necessity: Ensures services align with diagnoses for proper payment. Compliance: Helps maintain regulatory standards.
