How WellMed Does Inpatient Medical
Coding?

• Comprehend Patient –  The first step is to go over the complete patient’s medical records, particularly the disease conditions present on admission and procedures performed.
• Flawless Documentation – The material is meticulously documented down to the last detail.
• Cautious Coding – Finally, the medical professional’s annotations are converted into the diagnosis codes by MS DRG (Medicare Severity-Diagnosis Related Group), APR DRG (All Patients Refined Diagnosis Related Groups), and procedure codes using CPT® codebooks and ICD 10 PCS, especially for the IP accounts.

What makes WellMed different?

At WellMed, we understand the importance of medical coders in the healthcare sector. We know that an experienced medical coder needs to refer back to previous experiences to improve the outcome significantly. Our team also has expertise in using the coding applications like 3M, which most inpatient hospital clients use.

• Adapt Medical Coders – Our recruitment processes ensure that only the top vetted coders work on it. They have been thoroughly examined and proven beyond doubt that they are qualified for the task. Our medical coders are also certified by regulatory bodies such as AHIMA, CPC, AAPC, and a host of others.
• Preserve Records – The inpatient medical coding system is used to document a patient’s diagnosis and services throughout his lengthy stay. It is pertinent to keep records of a patient on an extended stay. This helps to backreference in the case of future diagnosis.
