Overview
The Medical Coding Agent reads the note for documented findings and proposes specific, defensible codes — ICD-10-CM diagnosis, CPT procedure, E&M level — each anchored to a quoted note span. Every code suggestion comes with the documentation that supports it and the documentation gap that would weaken it.How this agent works
Configuration
This agent takes the following configuration from your practice settings:- Approved code sets (ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS, E&M)
- Practice fee schedule and code preferences
- Documentation quality threshold for sign-off
- Audit trail retention policy
Execution
At runtime, the agent executes the following steps:- Reads the signed (or in-progress) note for documented findings
- Maps findings to ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS candidates with confidence
- Flags documentation gaps that would block a code
- Surfaces E&M level with documented rationale and time logic
- Logs every code suggestion with the supporting documentation span
Composable experts
The Medical Coding Agent bundles the following experts from the registry:| Expert | Role |
|---|---|
| ICD-10 Coding Expert | Diagnosis specificity and documentation support |
| CPT / E&M Expert | Time, complexity, and MDM-based selection |
| Compliance Guardrail Expert | Code-set validity and payer rule alignment |
| Documentation Quality Expert | Sufficiency of support for each code |
Typical use cases
- Code at the level the chart supports, not the level the clinician guesses
- Catch missed codes and revenue leakage on every visit
- Surface documentation gaps before the note is signed
- Document every code suggestion for audit defensibility
Compliance & safety guarantees
- Every code carries a documentation anchor and a confidence band
- E&M selection follows documented time and MDM logic
- Suggestions never auto-post; the coder or clinician confirms
