**Responsibilities**:
- **Code Assignment**: Accurately assign CPT codes to medical procedures, services, and diagnoses based on documentation provided by healthcare providers.
- **Documentation Review**: Review medical records, including physician notes, laboratory results, and other relevant documentation, to ensure completeness and accuracy for coding purposes.
- **Compliance**: Adhere to all coding guidelines, regulations, and compliance standards, such as those set forth by the American Medical Association (AMA), Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
- **Data Entry**: Enter coded information into the electronic health records (EHR) or practice management system accurately and in a timely manner.
- **Queries**: Collaborate with healthcare providers to resolve any discrepancies or clarify documentation through appropriate queries.
- **Education and Training**: Stay updated on changes in CPT coding guidelines, regulations, and industry trends through continuous education and training programs.
- **Quality Assurance**: Participate in coding audits and quality assurance initiatives to ensure coding accuracy and compliance with organizational standards.
- **Revenue Cycle Management**: Contribute to the revenue cycle management process by ensuring accurate and timely coding, which impacts billing and reimbursement.
- **Communication**: Maintain effective communication with healthcare providers, billing staff, and other relevant stakeholders to facilitate accurate coding and billing processes.
- **Confidentiality**: Handle patient information with utmost confidentiality and adhere to all privacy and security regulations.
