Abstract

The article discusses the use of coding automation to help manage the volume of electronic documentation for electronic health record, streamlining workflow, increase productivity and increase job satisfaction.

In addition, CAC should consider the impending transition to ICD-10-CM/PCS to keep their coding skills.
