PROBLEM STATEMENT

Dr. Angela Ramirez had seen it all. As a family medicine physician in a busy, multi-specialty healthcare organization, her days moved fast—patients, charts, follow—ups, more patients. Like many of her colleagues, she relied on her clinical instincts and focused on providing excellent care.

But behind the scenes, something wasn’t working

Despite an advanced healthcare IT ecosystem, including top—tier EHRs, billing tools, and patient engagement systems, claims were being denied more than ever. Coders struggled to interpret the provider’s notes. Payments were delayed. Tension grew between clinical and billing teams.

And it wasn‘t just Angela. Across the organization: from orthopedics to OB—GYN to urgent care, coders were wrestling with unclear documentation and complex, specialty-specific coding rules. Everyone was doing their best, but it wasn’t enough to bridge the gap. .

Provider Snapshot: A Multi-Specialty Core Leader

Our client is a mid—sized healthcare organization operating across both outpatient clinics and hospital settings. The network provides mprehensive care to a wide demographic, covering a diverse range of specialties:

Evaluation & Management (E/M): Family Practice, Paediatrics, Internal Medicine, OB-GYN, Psychiatry, and more.

Surgical Specialties: Orthopaedics, Cardiovascular Surgery, Podiatry, Gastrointestinal Surgery, and others.

While the diversity of services is a strength, it also brought layers of complexity, especially in coding.

The Hidden Problem

Serving a wide variety of specialties, this healthcare organization faced the challenge of aligning coding processes across different areas. Each specialty came with its own unique set of coding requirements. For instance, neurology had little in common with gastrointestinal surgery, and documentation for Federally Qualified Health Centres (FQHCs) was particularly nuanced.

Common problems included: Incomplete or unclear documentation, leading to coding delays and denials. Coders lacked specialty-specific training and tools, relying too much on guesswork. Weak feedback loops allowed documentation gaps to persist. Initial clinical notes missed key coding details, creating more work downstream. Despite having advanced tools, the system was misaligned—technology alone couldn’t solve the people and process challenges.
