These roles often support healthcare facilities during peak periods, staffing shortages, or special projects. Per diem coders typically work remotely or on-site, depending on the employer's needs.

You may be expected to meet productivity and accuracy standards similar to full-time staff, and the ability to quickly adapt to new workflows or documentation systems is important.
