Does anyone have any info regarding what industry standards are for coding productivity?This would be for pro fees. E&Ms per hour? Surgeries per hour? Are these typically counted per claim or per CPT?

Coder Productivity OP vs IP setting
Hi There
From Goggling the topic on this information it does depend coding abstraction per medical setting. Outpatient in ERM about 50 records a day, inpatient about 4 records a day and outpatient about 100 a work day. This means the medical coder does not have to do other office duties such as phone calls, posting, insurance denials, insurance verifying,Etc.
I hope this helps you

for me it varies by client but in general it is 10-12 CPT codes per hour. I have work some where it is 6-8 encounters per hour. so it varies with how they want to look at productivity.
