Accurate and timely claim submission has a significant impact on the health of an organization’s revenue cycle. Precise ICD-10 and CPT reporting directly correlate to an organization’s patient population, the severity of illness, quality scores, and reimbursement. Comprehensive coding solutions, education, and training can enhance a healthcare facility’s bottom line. Axea Academy® is the training platform for ICD-10, CPT, and E&M medical coding utilized by hospitals, medical clinics, and academic health networks. The online training courses and interactive learning tools in Axea Academy® foster enhanced knowledge, quality, and productivity across coding and clinical teams, thereby helping hospitals, clinics, and physician practices generate accurate reimbursement, comply with rigorous coding and billing requirements, and avoid financial penalties. |
