I need a certified coder to assign accurate ICD-10 codes to a series of general-medicine inpatient charts. You will receive complete electronic health records—admission notes, progress notes, discharge summaries, imaging and lab reports—and return a coded file for each encounter.
The focus is strictly inpatient, so you will determine principal and secondary diagnoses, procedures, and any MCC/CC that affect DRG assignment. All coding must follow the latest Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting as well as hospital-specific policies that I will share after award.
Deliverables
• One spreadsheet (or 837I flat file if you prefer) per batch, listing MRN, encounter dates, all ICD-10-CM and PCS codes, DRG, and coding rationale comments.
• Turnaround time of 48 hours for each 25-chart batch.
• Error rate below 2% when audited against AHA Coding Clinic guidance.
Acceptance will be based on guideline adherence, DRG accuracy, and timely delivery. Let me know your credentials and the audit tools you normally use so we can get started immediately.
