As part of our inpatient coding team, you will work coding quality alerts/edits for hospital inpatient encounters post initial final coding to ensure complete and accurate code assignment, and/or DRG assignment.

This is a great starting position for those wanting to move from production coding toward a coding quality review position.
In this role you will take action to resolve coding quality alerts/edits and/or address customer’s quality concerns by:
- Verifying accuracy of assigned PCS codes for complex and/or error prone procedures,
- Reviewing charge and procedure code mismatches,
- Verifying the diagnosis coding accuracy for complex and/or error prone DRGs,
- Validating certain discharge dispositions,
- Reviewing codes with revenue integrity for NCD/LCD coverage,
- For certain encounters (e.g., mortalities, cases where LOS is materially different than the DRG’s GMLOS), reviewing encounters for full complete, accurate and consistent coding (accurate principal diagnosis selection, ensure all secondary codes are accurately captured, ensure all procedure codes are captured and sequenced appropriately, verify SOI/ROM, validate DNR and palliative codes),
- Reviewing encounters to determine coding accuracy based on a customer’s specific complaint.
Qualifications:
- High School graduate or GED equivalent required
- Undergraduate (Associate's or Bachelor's) degree in HIM/HIT preferred
- Minimum 1 year of acute care hospital inpatient coding required with 3 years preferred
- RHIA, RHIT or CCS preferred
