It is a specialized skill that requires a comprehensive knowledge of medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology, as well as an understanding of industry-specific coding systems such as ICD-10-CM and CPT. Ethical coding practices aim to protect patient privacy, ensure proper billing and reimbursement, and support quality care outcomes.
