Hello,
I just started a new position within my company (Medical Coding Specialist). It's a brand new position so I am trying to come up with workflows. I will not be doing the initial coding for the providers, however we have edits set up in our EMR systems (ex. new vs establish) that will drop to me if it is coded incorrectly. I will then review documentation and apply the correct code. I will have access to make these changes myself within the system and the chart, but also need to keep the providers aware of these changes as well as document the work I am doing. I don't know the best way to do this. Spreadsheets? Email? etc. Any feedback would be appreciated!
Thanks!
