What is a MedDRA Coding job?

A MedDRA Coding job involves assigning standardized Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) terms to adverse events, medical conditions, and drug-related data in clinical trials and pharmacovigilance. Coders ensure consistency and accuracy in medical terminology to support regulatory reporting and safety analysis. This role requires knowledge of MedDRA hierarchy, coding guidelines, and industry regulations. Professionals often work in pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations (CROs), or regulatory agencies. Strong attention to detail and familiarity with medical terminology are essential skills for this job.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Meddra Coding position, and why are they important?

To excel in MedDRA Coding, a strong understanding of medical terminology, clinical research processes, and pharmacovigilance concepts—often supported by a life sciences degree or healthcare background—is essential. Familiarity with the MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) system, coding software, and relevant regulatory guidelines, along with certifications in drug safety or medical coding, is highly valued. Attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication are standout soft skills for this position. These competencies are crucial to ensure accurate and consistent coding of medical terms, enabling high-quality safety data analysis and regulatory compliance.

What are the typical responsibilities of a MedDRA Coding specialist on a clinical research or pharmacovigilance team?

A MedDRA Coding specialist is primarily responsible for translating medical information from clinical trial reports, adverse event forms, or safety databases into standardized MedDRA terms. This ensures accurate data capture, analysis, and reporting for regulatory submissions and ongoing safety monitoring. Specialists often collaborate with drug safety teams, medical writers, and data managers to resolve coding discrepancies and maintain consistency in terminology. In addition, the role may involve participating in cross-functional meetings and providing coding support during audits or inspections. Working efficiently and maintaining up-to-date knowledge of MedDRA updates are also key aspects of the job.

Company: Large Pharmacuetical Company

Title: Pharmacovigilance / Patient Safety Case Processing Specialist

Contract Position

Description Summary:


This is a Patient Safety Specialist I contract role with Novo Nordisk in Plainsboro, NJ. It is a 6-month contract to start, primarily onsite, with possible flexibility after performance and discussion with the manager.


The role focuses on pharmacovigilance case processing, adverse event handling, documentation, MedDRA coding, and safety database work. The absolute requirements are a bachelor’s degree or relevant clinical background, at least 1-2 years of PV experience in a relevant company, adverse event identification, MedDRA coding, and strong medical/pharmacovigilance terminology. Veeva is preferred, but Argus or ArisG experience can also work. Strong written communication is very important because this is more documentation-focused than call-center focused.
