Medical Coder Job Description

Medical coding specialists are responsible for job duties such as:

  • Reviewing patient medical records
  • Coding treatment information using Common Procedure Terminology (CPT) codes

  • Receiving patient treatment codes to use in assembling reimbursement claims
  • Creating reimbursement claims and transfer to third-party payers
  • Coordinating reimbursement activities with payers
  • Billing patients for medical services

  • Nursing Outpatient Facilities
  • Nursing Homes
  • Homecare Facilities
  • Insurance Providers
  • Medical Research Facilities

Medical billing and coding specialists usually work in office settings. A computer, a telephone and appropriate documents are all used on a daily basis.
