Medical Coding Services

Certified coders on your charts, every encounter

Our AAPC-certified coders assign CPT, ICD-10-CM and HCPCS codes and modifiers straight from your clinical documentation, so claims go out supported, specific and ready to pay.

Coding done by people who know your specialty
Coding is where revenue and audit risk meet. We treat it as its own discipline, not a step buried in billing.

Full-Encounter Coding

E/M levels, procedures, injections, imaging and add-on services coded from the note, with the diagnosis linked to each service.

Specialty-Trained Coders

Coders are matched to your specialty so they know its global periods, bundling rules and payer quirks before they open the first chart.

Modifier and Bundling Review

Every claim is checked against NCCI edits, and modifiers such as 25, 59 and the X modifiers are used only when the note supports them.

Written Coding Queries

When the note is unclear, the provider gets a short written query. Queries are tracked to closure, so nothing is coded on a guess.

Code Set Updates

We load annual CPT, October ICD-10-CM and quarterly HCPCS changes, and tell providers what changed for their specialty.

Quality Audits and Reporting

A sample of coded charts is re-audited each month, with error rates by provider and code family reported back to you.

Why it matters

Coding is where revenue and audit risk meet

The code on the claim decides what you get paid and what an auditor can question. A level that's one step too low costs you money on every visit. A modifier used without support can cost you a repayment and a compliance headache. Neither shows up as an error message at submission.

Coding also keeps moving. CPT updates every January, ICD-10-CM every October and HCPCS every quarter, and payers layer their own edits on top. A coder who knows your specialty catches the changes that matter to you before the first claim denies.

In-house coding usually fails for a practical reason: the person coding is also doing three other jobs. Outsourcing trades that for dedicated, certified coders with a second review on your first month of charts.

How it works

How coding engagements start

  1. Week 1: Sample chartsWe code a set of your recent charts and compare our results with what was billed. Every difference gets explained.
  2. Week 2: Rules setupWe write down your specialty rules, payer preferences, modifier policies and query process so the work is consistent from day one.
  3. Weeks 3 to 4: Go-live with double reviewEvery chart in the first month gets a second review while the team learns your documentation style.
  4. Ongoing: Sampling auditsAfter month one, a sample of coded charts is audited each month and error rates go to you by provider and code family.
  5. Quarterly: Results reviewWe show what changed, what it was worth and where documentation still needs work.
What to expect

What practices usually find in the first quarter

The pattern is consistent: a cluster of under-coded E/M visits, a few modifiers used without support, and diagnosis codes that aren't specific enough for the payer's policy. Fixing those three is usually worth more than any software change.

Pricing

What medical coding services cost

Coding is a standalone service, quoted after a short intake. The price reflects your encounter volume, specialty complexity and turnaround needs. It's available without a billing contract, and works alongside an existing biller.

FAQ

Questions we hear most

Are your coders certified?

Yes. Our coders hold AAPC certifications and are matched to your specialty so they already know its bundling rules and payer quirks.

What if the documentation is unclear?

The provider gets a short written query. We track every query to closure, and nothing is coded on a guess.

How do you handle code set updates?

We load annual CPT, October ICD-10-CM and quarterly HCPCS changes and tell your providers what changed for their specialty.

Can you code for just one service line?

Yes. Many practices start with one high-risk or high-volume service line, such as procedures or infusions, and expand once they see the results.
