What Does a Remote Radiology Coder Do?
As a remote radiology coder, you work from home to assess the services rendered for a patient by a radiologist and appropriately code the information for accurate billing. Your duties include determining procedures ordered and procedures actually performed, checking for documented justification, reviewing insurance requirements, choosing the correct diagnostic code, and ensuring HIPAA and regulatory compliance for the provider and medical facility. You may use industry software and review electronic health records for a hospital, private practice, or another facility that handles radiology responsibilities.
