siliconindia | | April 20194It is just a matter of time that Artificial Intelligence will have a major impact on the way medical billing and coding industry functions. While medical billing is the backbone of any prac-titioner's revenue cycle, it is very common for them to experience challenges with accurately and efficiently billing payers and patients for medical services. With AI's capacity to accurately code EHR data, it can automatically conduct audits by self-adjusting known values to the audit results. With time, AI will further narrow-down the margin of errors, funnelling revenue back into the healthcare sys-tem by billing the correct amount. While this will benefit practition-ers, it will also benefit the patients, as they will not be overcharged and will also allow them to access their medical bills in a more palatable form. Further, AI could help medical coders to work more efficiently and accurately by flagging mistakes and suggesting possible fixes at the right time. No wonder that surveys claim that while the medi-cal coding market will reach a whopping $25.4 billion by 2025, the global medical billing outsourcing market will reach $197 billion by 2026, and AI will have a substantial role to play in this growth and further streamlining the entire healthcare process.
