AI Clinical Coding Case Study

 

The ongoing challenges of ensuring your coding teams maintains a coding quality that meets NHS Tariff requirements can be straining. 

These can include: 

  • Poor Efficiency: Requirement for human coders to complete manual and repetitive tasks 

  • High Team Turnover: Shrinking coding team due to retirements, competition from neighbouring Trusts, and a lack of new trainee coders. 

  • Unreliable Results: Human error leading to inaccurate coding and additional time spent on projects. 

  • Rising Costs: Reliance on contractors and long-term coder recruitment contributes to rising costs. 

NLAG, a leading NHS Foundation Trust, faced these challenges head-on. They found a solution in AI-powered clinical coding that: 

  • Improved accuracy: Reduced errors and ensured compliance with coding guidelines. 

  • Increased efficiency: Automated repetitive tasks and freed up coders for more complex cases. 

  • Reduced costs: Lowered reliance on contractors and improved overall efficiency. 

Our innovative service provided a robust solution, seamlessly integrating with their existing systems.
