What is a Remote Clinical Coder?

Medical coders are certified experts who transcribe patient’s information into a standard medical record. Health records are drafted using a standard medical code system developed by the American Medical Association, reducing the chances of misinterpretations and errors during patient care. Healthcare coders apply CPT, ICD-10, and HCPCS coding standards, ensuring precise documentation of procedures, diagnoses, and healthcare services in compliance with HIPAA. The accurate coding standardizes billing and minimizes claim denials, speeding up payment reimbursements for healthcare providers. The remote model also reduces overhead costs associated with in-house staff, making it a cost-effective solution for all practices.

Clinical Documentation

The certified coding specialist (CCS) at Care VMA Health collects patient demographics, from recording the health plan and diagnosis details to the patient’s treatment procedures and medications.

Claims Submission and Denial Management

Medical practices have been struggling with claims denials. According to a Premier report, 15% of the claims submissions across the USA are initially denied, causing $19.7 billion to the healthcare sector in 2022 trying to overturn denied claims. Care VMA Health remote coders ensure that your payment claims are submitted with accurate medical codes. Our experts analyze coding-related denials to uncover root causes and rework claims accurately. We guarantee consistent claims approvals and timely reimbursements, improving your practice’s cash flow and gross revenue.

Diagnostic Coding (ICD-10-CM)

Care VMA Health assists providers in assigning precise diagnosis codes for various specialties. This detailed coding is not just about compliance; it ensures that medical treatments are justified to insurance companies. Remote coders facilitate timely claim approvals and maintain precise patient health records for medical practices.

Review and Audit

Using thorough coding reviews, we pinpoint faulty areas and provide actionable feedback to align with insurance companies’ guidelines and optimize coding performance accordingly.

Procedural Coding (CPT & HCPCS)

Our virtual medical coders apply the CPT codes to cover diagnostic examinations, surgical procedures, and medications provided during patient visits in billing claims. Not only this, our coding assistants precisely label ambulance services, medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and other medical supplies with standard level II HCPCS codes, helping billers in claims submission.

Why Hire a Remote Medical Coder?

Cost-Effective

Remote medical coders save substantial costs for healthcare providers by eliminating the need for physical office space, equipment, and amenities. Additionally, the virtual coding assistant costs $12-15 an hour on average compared to the onsite medical coder, who charges a median pay of $23.45 per hour in the United States. Not only this, the remote coders don’t have any upfront registration fee, and they provide services in multiple time slots.

Enhanced Coding Productivity

Clinical assistant for coding uses advanced computer-assisted coding (CAC) applications that boost productivity by up to 34.8% compared to traditional setups. Healthcare organizations report that remote coders can process more charts per hour, ensuring efficient billing cycles and quicker reimbursements. Remote medical coding companies assist healthcare practices in streamlining their communication and billing processes.

Reduced Claim Denials

According to a report, claim denials cost an estimated $262 billion annually to United State’s healthcare system. One of the reasons is the incorrect coding during chart drafting or claim submissions. Medical coder remote specializes in ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS coding systems, ensuring medical services and devices are labeled accurately in claims submissions. Accurate coding speeds up the revenue cycle and stabilizes the cash flow for healthcare providers

HIPAA and OIG-compliant

Remote medical coding companies comply with HIPAA’s data security standards. These virtual coding assistants adhere to OIG’s broader guidelines, preventing fraud, waste, and abuse within federally funded Medicare and Medicaid healthcare programs. Care VMA Health coders receive training on compliance protocols, reducing the risk of data breaches. Our coding assistants ensure that all records are processed within legal standards.

Improved Patient Satisfaction

The advantage of remote medical coding is offloading billing and coding tasks from in-house staff. Healthcare providers average 6 to 8 hours a week on coding and billing tasks. This rigorous claim submission and billing processes waste doctor’s time that could be spent on patient care. By outsourcing these duties to remote coding professionals, practices can refocus their attention on patient care and clinical responsibilities.

Round-the-clock Availability

Hiring a remote medical coder gives you timing flexibility. Unlike traditional in-house coders, virtual coding experts work 24/7, giving you the leverage to choose as per your practice needs. The availability of remote medical coders during off-peak hours (evenings and weekends) ensures that the workflow runs smoothly without any delays in billing and reimbursements. These flexible working hours not only boost productivity but also support faster revenue cycle management.
