Who We Serve
Medical Coding and HIM Services for Ambulatory Surgery Centers
Coding and claims-review support that keeps ASC reimbursement accurate, compliant, and complete.
Overview
Precision Coding for High-Volume Surgical Care
Ambulatory surgery centers run on throughput — and on getting each surgical claim exactly right. Correct CPT®/HCPCS and ICD-10-CM coding, accurate modifier assignment, device and drug capture, and documentation that supports medical necessity all determine whether an ASC is paid appropriately for the care it delivers.
HMI’s credentialed specialists validate ASC claims against the medical record to confirm reporting accuracy and surface the coding and documentation issues that quietly reduce reimbursement — so your center captures the full, compliant value of every procedure.
The Challenge
What Ambulatory Surgery Centers Are Up Against
Surgical Coding Accuracy
CPT®/HCPCS and ICD-10-CM coding for procedures and drugs must be validated against documentation to confirm reporting accuracy.
Modifier Application
Correct modifier assignment — including for multiple and device-intensive procedures — is essential to appropriate ASC payment.
Medical-Necessity Support
Documentation must support the medical necessity of each procedure to withstand payer and audit scrutiny.
High Volume, Thin Margins
At ASC volumes, small per-claim coding errors compound quickly across a busy schedule.
How HMI Helps
How HMI Supports Ambulatory Surgery Centers
We recently transitioned to HMI from another physician documentation and coding compliance vendor, and the entire experience has been positive. HMI adapted to our workflows for a seamless transition, and the Coding Hotline has been an invaluable resource. I would highly recommend HMI.
