Hi -
I am gathering data on how different EMR systems using CAC (Computer Assisted Coding) to assign diagnosis codes. I am looking for information on the following:
1) Does your system assign a principal or primary diagnosis code to the medical record or is up to the coder to determine this after reviewing the medical record?
2) Does your system provide any code sequencing or is that up to the coder?
Thanks in advance for your responses.
