Hidden coding costs are destroying budgets.

Most healthcare finance teams don't realize their true coding costs until budget overruns become unavoidable. Learn how top health systems are eliminating these hidden expenses with autonomous medical coding.

How are leading health systems solving budget overruns?

While most organizations struggle with escalating coding costs from workforce shortages, forward-thinking health systems are setting up sustainable coding operations by implementing autonomous medical coding.

The results are immediate: Inova reduced annual ED medical coding costs by $1.3M while eliminating mandatory overtime, and a large health system achieved a 35% reduction in coding cost-per-chart.

By removing dependency on scarce coding talent, these organizations have transformed unpredictable labor expenses into manageable, consistent technology costs.

Key financial improvements driven by autonomous medical coding:

 Automate routine coding cases at a lower cost-per-claim than traditional staffing or outsourcing alternatives

 Manage increasing volumes without proportional staffing increases that drive budget overruns

 Eliminate recruitment, training, and turnover costs that drain coding department budgets

 Reduce costs associated with manual charge entry and administrative overhead

How is autonomous medical coding different from previous technology and solutions?

Unlike computer-assisted coding (CAC) solutions that require human validation, autonomous medical coding solutions operate independently, processing encounters from clinical documentation to final code assignment with zero human intervention.

Don't just take our word for it...read Inova's success story with Nym.

Meet Inova, the leading health system in Northern Virginia. For Inova, the combination of medical coder staffing challenges and increasing emergency department (ED) patient volumes led to reliance on expensive contract coders, overtime (OT) requirements for in-house coders, and delayed payment cycles.

To solve these challenges, Inova deployed Nym's autonomous medical coding engine and later, Nym’s partial coding product, for ED facility coding across multiple hospital EDs and outpatient emergency care centers.
