  • No signup required

Planning guidance only. Validate important decisions with customer evidence and your delivery team.

How it works

1

Enter documented encounter details

Visit complexity, time spent, problems addressed, and data reviewed are matched against typical code criteria.

2

We rank candidate codes by documentation match

Each candidate code's typical thresholds are compared against your documented values to produce a match score.

3

Trained coding staff review before submission

The top-ranked candidates are suggestions only. A qualified coder verifies against current payer guidelines and submits the final code.

Frequently asked questions

Does Code Assist submit billing codes automatically?

No, never. Code Assist only ranks candidate codes by how well documented encounter details match typical criteria. A trained coding professional must always review documentation and make the final code selection and submission.

Are the candidate codes guaranteed to be correct?

No. This is a simplified, illustrative documentation-match ranking, not a payer-specific or fully compliant coding engine. Current official coding guidelines and payer rules always take precedence.

Why do time and data reviewed matter as much as complexity?

Common outpatient evaluation and management coding frameworks weigh total time, number of problems addressed, and data reviewed alongside overall complexity, so the match score reflects all four factors.

What does a low match score mean?

It means the documented details don't clearly support any candidate code — usually a sign that more detail should be documented before coding staff finalize a submission.
