The vxProfessional Fee Coding Encounter Reporter works with the vxProfessional Fee Coding Assistant (vxProCode) within the vxDesktop Framework to assure that electronic billing systems like vxPAMs receive accurate encounter information for improved claim submission, workflow efficiency, and accuracy of coding for professional fee coding. Supervisors in coding and billing can assign, monitor, and review each encounter from the initial visit through submission to a billing system.
Compliance officers can review provider, coder, and clinic information. Researchers can search through the vxVistA database for incidences of illnesses, co-morbidities, effectiveness of procedures, and to find candidates for new research studies. vxProCode and Reporter have an embedded electronic encoder that provides real-time audit data for Medical Necessity, Correct Coding Procedures, and valid ICD-9, CPT-4 and HCPCS codes.
The system also includes an E&M calculator to validate the E&M codes entered in the clinic against the documentation provided by the clinician.
