Codametrix Autonomous Medical Coding Platform

“CodaMetrix sends back reports to us with the codes, or it sends back a report of what it knows it can't code, so the human coders then attack those and code them manually. There’s hope we will reach about 70 percent of our pathology volume in the next year. And we do believe there are other opportunities. We are exploring autonomous coding for a variety of specialties.” 

“Since integrating CodaMetrix’s platform into our RCM system in 2022, we have eliminated our historical coding backlog and reduced coder overtime. The improvements have been significant—our automation rate has increased by 15% since go-live, now reaching 86% and exceeding internal goals. The use of AI to automate coding through CodaMetrix’s platform has streamlined our coding processes and enhanced clinical detail, ultimately contributing to better results. We’re exploring expansion into additional service lines within our health system.” 

Our turnaround time is dramatically different with the assistance of CMX: 4.82 days versus 43.6. CMX has also coded enough work that it would have taken a full FTE an entire year to complete. Not having anxiety around these backlogs is game-changing. Our coders were burning out from the amount of overtime required. They were open to adopting this technology because they recognized that the status quo was unsustainable. The success we saw with autonomous coding in radiology encouraged me to expand automation efforts to other service lines as well.

"We had an extremely successful go live and optimization project thanks to the talented and knowledgeable team at CodaMetrix. We are grateful for their support in helping us exceed our automation goal and we are excited to expand the use of this platform to other service lines. This implementation has reduced our expenses and allowed our coders to focus on those accounts that require human intervention to ensure accuracy and compliance."

Through the adoption of CodaMetrix we have been able to reach unprecedented levels of automation that have had efficiency & cost reduction ripple effect across our entire organization.
