What is a per diem medical coding?

A Per Diem Medical Coding job is a flexible, as-needed position where a medical coder reviews and assigns standardized codes to diagnoses and procedures for billing and documentation purposes. 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. This position is ideal for experienced coders seeking flexibility without a full-time commitment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in per diem medical coding?

To thrive as a Per Diem Medical Coder, you need a solid understanding of medical terminology, anatomy, and healthcare coding systems, often supported by completion of a coding program and certification such as CPC or CCS. Familiarity with ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS coding systems, as well as electronic health records (EHR) platforms, is typically required.

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. While most of the work is independent, you may collaborate with healthcare providers or other coders to clarify documentation or resolve discrepancies.
