What is Medical Coding?

Medical coding refers to the systematic conversion of clinical documentation into standardized codes. These codes serve to categorize diagnoses, procedures, medical services, and equipment. In the United States, medical coders predominantly utilize three main types of codes:

ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is utilized for coding various diagnoses.
CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) serves the purpose of coding medical procedures and services.
HCPCS (Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System) is mainly employed for coding services and equipment that are not included in the CPT.

These codes are crucial for precise claims submission, maintaining medical records, and effectively managing patient care.
