We are sharing a specialised remote consulting opportunity for experienced US-based Inpatient Medical Coders with expertise in ICD-10 coding, CPT/HCPCS classification systems, clinical documentation review, and healthcare coding quality assurance to contribute their professional knowledge to advanced AI training and evaluation initiatives.
Selected professionals will review inpatient medical records, assess diagnostic and procedural coding accuracy, evaluate AI-generated clinical documentation, and identify inconsistencies across medical coding workflows. The work combines practical healthcare coding expertise with clinical data interpretation, documentation analysis, coding guideline application, and structured quality assessment to help improve the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of AI systems operating across clinical coding and medical record processing environments.

Apply professional coding expertise to interpret medical terminology, clinical findings, and documented patient encounters
Assess coding decisions against established classification standards and healthcare documentation practices
ICD-10 & CPT/HCPCS Classification
Apply ICD-10 coding principles to diagnostic information documented in patient medical records
Review procedural information and evaluate the appropriate application of CPT and HCPCS coding systems where relevant
Analyse coding scenarios requiring accurate interpretation of clinical documentation and classification guidelines
Identify inconsistencies between documented clinical information and assigned diagnosis or procedure codes
Use current official coding references and applicable Evaluation and Management (E&M) guidelines to support accurate coding assessments
Clinical Documentation Integrity & Data Validation
Review clinical documentation for completeness, clarity, and alignment with established coding requirements
Identify documentation discrepancies, missing information, and coding inconsistencies affecting medical record accuracy
Evaluate the relationship between documented diagnoses, procedures, and corresponding classification codes
Assess the integrity of medical record abstraction and the accurate capture of relevant clinical information
Provide structured recommendations for resolving coding discrepancies and improving documentation quality
AI Training & Clinical Coding Evaluation
Review and validate AI-generated clinical notes, patient summaries, diagnostic information, and procedural documentation
Compare AI-generated medical coding outputs with applicable ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS coding guidelines
Identify inaccurate code assignments, incomplete clinical interpretations, and inconsistencies in AI-generated medical information
Apply professional coding judgement to assess the correctness and practical relevance of AI-generated clinical content
Provide detailed written feedback explaining coding inaccuracies, classification decisions, and opportunities for improved model performance
Medical Coding Quality Assurance & Technical Collaboration
Evaluate coding outputs for accuracy, completeness, and consistency with current healthcare coding standards
Review and reconcile discrepancies in diagnosis and procedure coding to support reliable clinical data capture
Enter and assess AI-generated patient information within designated computerised inpatient and outpatient medical record systems
Produce clear coding explanations, documentation assessments, and structured technical feedback
Support continuous improvement of medical coding accuracy, clinical data integrity, and specialised AI evaluation deliverables
