                                          MEDICAL CODING.

                                                  

                                                   Medical Coding starts with a patient's visit to a doctor or other healthcare facility. Medical coding involves extracting billable information from the medical record and clinical documentation, while medical billing uses those codes to create insurance claims and bills for patients. Creating claims is where medical billing and coding intersect to form the backbone of the healthcare revenue cycle.

                                           

 Providers use clinical documentation to justify reimbursement to payers when a conflict with claim arises.   If a provider does not sufficiently document a service in the medical record, the organization could face a claim denial and potentially a write-off. Providers could also face a healthcare fraud or liability investigation if they attempt to bill payers and patients for services incorrectly documented in the medical record or missing from the patient’s data altogether.

                                              Once a patient leaves the healthcare facility, a professional medical coder reviews and analyzes clinical documentation to connect services with billing codes related to a diagnosis, procedure, charge and professional or facility code. During this process, coders uses a set of universal codes like ICD.

                                           The International Classification of Disease (ICD)system was created for the accurate tracking of diseases within a population. ICD codes are used in billing, treatments, and statistics collection. Having the right code is important to ensure that standardized treatment for a medical issue is delivered and that medical expenses are reimbursed. For instance , code J15.9 denotes Bacterial pneumonia. 

                                           Bacterial pneumonia is an infection of your lungs caused by certain bacteria. The most common one is streptococcus, but other bacteria can cause it too. People who have a weakened immune system also have an increased risk for bacterial pneumonia. People who are HIV positive or who have leukemia, lymphoma, or a severe kidney disease also stand a greater chance of developing the infection. Treatment of Bacterial pneumonia includes antibiotics.

The signs and symptoms of pneumonia includes

• Cough
• Fever, sweating and shaking chills
• Shortness of breath
• Rapid, shallow breathing
• Sharp or stabbing chest pain that gets worse when you breathe deeply or cough
• Loss of appetite, low energy and fatigue.

                                 One of the best ways to prevent bacterial pneumonia is by preserving the strength of the immune system. Eating healthy foods, getting enough rest, and frequent hand-washing are good points.

 From a single code we can get a whole lot about a patients condition.
