I would like some feedback on coders in an office setting. Does your office use the front staff to enter the codes from the charge sheets after the physician fills it out or do you have a coder enter charges? Some of our offices hire office assistants and teach coding but as a certified coder and manager I am changing to have coders in offices work with the physician and front staff do the information on the front end and collect the copays. I would like to hear how other offices are using there staff. thanks in advance.
