Wiki HCC Productivity

Is anyone willing to share their productivity standards for HCC outpatient coding?

Hi Bab0913
The dx codes selected must match provider's documentation for the day of treatment. If outpt. claims do 70 a day, inpatient claim 40 a day . In conjunction with this the medical coder must be aware of adding chronic conditions, T.O.A.D data, and Forever Disease if it applies. Excludes 1 and 2 rules need to be known and use of modifiers plus properly assign Z dx codes. Also, the standard national coding convention per medical specialty.
I hope this data helps you
