Market Definition
Medical coding is the process of coding medical data and documents such as physician's notes, test findings, and so on to safeguard them from being used in fraudulent behavior. Medical coding is converting medical documentation and records into internationally recognized alphanumeric numbers and codes. A medical coder's role is to transform diagnostic data, prescriptions, or reports of a patient's condition received from the doctor into codes. A medical coder also assures and validates whether or not medical codes for a specific document are applied.
Medical Coding Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing demand for standardized coding in medical records will drive the market growth
Medical coders are in high demand due to increased demand for standardized billing systems. The increasing availability of medical coding services has increased the demand for medical coding, particularly in underdeveloped countries. Rising medical record and insurance claim fraud and misinterpretation have increased demand for medical coding service providers. In other words, the growing number of fraudulent activities associated with the mis-handling of personal information has resulted in the rise in demand for advanced medical coding system adoption.
- Growing investment by private players to streamline the process
There is also a demand for a more simplified and user-friendly coding and billing system. Medical coding businesses allow administrators to examine the frequency and efficacy of treatments in their facility. This is especially crucial for major medical institutions such as tertiary care hospitals. The market is projected to be driven by frequent releases. For instance, Athenahealth announced the athenaOne Medical Coding Solution in March 2021, an EHR coding solution that potentially reduces clinician coding-related labor and, as a result, clinician fatigue.
Opportunities
- The pandemic acted as a market opportunity
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has fueled the importance of medical coding and patient management. For example, CMS announced two Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) codes in March 2020 that laboratories can use to charge for specific COVID-19 diagnostic procedures, including those produced in-house by the new United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) recommendations. As a result, the COVID-19 epidemic caused several changes in the market analyzed, and these changes are projected to have a long-term impact on the market. As a result, the market under consideration is projected to pick up steam in the future years.
Restraints/Challenges
- Lack of awaerenss regarding harzards
A lack of trained personnel or skilled professionals will stifle market growth. The complexity of understanding all of the codes necessitates good training and knowledge in this area. As a result, it is not a job for a layperson. It necessitates a large amount of practice as well as a high level of stress. Therefore, the shortage of skilled professionals, especially in developing and underdeveloped economies, directly hampers the growth of the market.
