Take the homework out of coding

The Village Pediatrics (VP) staff were overwhelmed with medical coding work and needed help. Partnering with a third-party billing company offered little relief as it created new technical challenges and regulatory issues around information sharing. By switching to athenahealth’s HIPAA-compliant medical coding service, VP reduced its clinicians’ coding time by 50% and eliminated after-hours coding.

    “As soon as encounters are signed off, I can just hit a few buttons and send it and focus on other things. I can depend on the [athenahealth] coder to say, ‘Hey, you’re missing documentation.’”
