CodeLink® Software
For over a decade, CodeLink® has been the
number one choice for healthcare service providers and medical claims
coders, and has also been selected by more practice management systems
vendors than any other comparable system. CodeLink® now
offers new claims editing features within the application that provide
additional information on the precise codes and claim information
selected by the user. These new rules specifically address
utilization, validation, modifier usage, and the National Correct Coding
Initiative(CCI) edits for unbundling and potential upcoding occurrences.
CodeLink® contains the entire listing of
CPT®, HCPCS, and ICD-9-CM codes, notes, and includes and
excludes notes, linkage libraries to cross-reference relationships
between CPT® and ICD-9-CM codes on a specialty-by-specialty
basis. CodeLink® also incorporates Medicare's rules and
regulations, which are provided on a code-by-code basis and allows users
to retrieve Medicare's National Correct Coding Policy and Medicare fees
by carrier and Zip code, which means fewer Medicare denials, improved
reimbursements, and lower audit liability, among many other benefits.
Some of the other features and benefits designed to
help users avoid the most common coding details include:
-
Fast and accurate lookup of CPT®,
HCPCS, and ICD-9-CM codes, which dramatically reduces time and
errors in coding.
-
Procedure-to-diagnosis code linkages (available
for all major specialties), which help ensure that reported
diagnoses support and justify billed services.
-
Full expansion of ICD-9-CM fourth and fifth digits
to ensure proper code selection.

as well as warnings for manifestations and unspecified codes, which
