CODING SERVICES
WHAT SETS US APART:
- G2N has the capability to not only retrieve scanned charts remotely, but will also abstract directly into the client's system. This process reduces DNFB (discharge not final billed) dollars, saves hospital staff time and frees staff space within the HIM department. Travel and lodging expenses associated with traveling coders are also eliminated. G2N is available for you immediately, as needed, or for long-term assignments.
- Since G2N is also a revenue cycle consulting firm, Coding Specialists are trained to “stay with” each chart so you not only receive the proper codes, but also a revenue cycle resource to ensure proper billing is achieved. Our clients are alerted to areas of opportunity or concern.
- G2N’s Coding Specialists are all AHIMA credentialed with an average experience of 10 years. Most G2N coders have large hospital experience with a broad range of coding types.
- G2N’s Coding Specialists are employees, not contractors. Our employees receive competitive compensation and full benefits, and not paid by the chart. Employee performance is measured routinely to ensure high quality coding on a consistent basis.
- Coding Specialists have a range of experience including physician offices, surgery centers, and all sizes of hospitals and are familiar with all record types.
CODING MATTERS
Uncoded charts can have a significant financial impact on each healthcare provider. Additionally, the industrywide shortage of credentialed coders, lack of documentation, misunderstanding of coding principles, changes, etc. can result in both lost revenue and compliance issues. As a healthcare financial consulting firm, G2N offers highly skilled coders who take great care to not only code, but to also identify areas for improvement in the revenue cycle.
SCOPE: G2N provides an array of coding services. The predominant service is designed to provide experienced, credentialed coders via electronic access to the patient record. Options are available for scanning and access to partially electronic records to eliminate unnecessary costs and delays of on-site coding. Our internal coding audit process is consistent with it's commitment for continuous improvement and correct coding. G2N meets client timeframes for turnaround time and quality while following each account through to its completion. G2N also provides coding audit services to meet provider compliance plans. Coding audits validate accuracy rates and provide training, as needed.
