“We deliver complete medical coding solutions to reduce compliance risk and help to increase revenue opportunities.”
Medical coding is a critical consideration for healthcare organizations ranging from solo practices to clinics and hospitals. On the surface, the process seems so simple – it’s nothing more than applying universally-accepted alphanumeric codes to the services provided to patients, whether that’s an X-ray, a diagnosis, or equipment sent home with them.
However, that appearance is deceptive. Medical coding can be incredibly complex. It requires abstracting medical information from patient records and other sources of information, as well as a deep understanding of diagnosis and procedure codes. The result? Many healthcare businesses struggle due to incorrect medical coding, which costs them a significant amount of revenue.

Our AAPC and AHIMA-certified team ensures that all coding is accurate, dramatically reducing the incidence of claim denial. That helps you avoid compliance-related issues, build stronger relationships with your patients, and increase profitability.
At HealthQuist, we deliver a wide range of medical coding services, including the following:
While accurate medical coding will dramatically reduce the number of denied claims you experience, it will not eliminate them. We provide coding denial analysis to drill down into each denied claim and determine the underlying reason. Based on our analysis, we are usually able to identify the code-related issue, re-code the claim, and re-submit it for approval once more.
Our approach is based on a proven workflow and expert actions taken by certified coding professionals with vast experience in multiple coding specialties. Our certified coders review each individual claim and EOB to determine the underlying reason for the denial and provide an effective denial resolution.
Our coders will also educate the clients/physicians on certain coding-related denials and alter the documentation or codes in the initial phase to eradicate coding denials in the future. At HealthQuist, we take a structured approach to coding denials to deliver a cost-efficient solution and ensure that denials are resolved quickly so that payment can be received promptly.
