Medical coding involves the analysis of medical records and assignment of standardized numerical codes according to diseases, procedures, and other health services. This is done for administrative purposes like insurance claims processing and clinical data reporting. Medical coding provides structure and organizes medical records and plays a key role in addressing issues related to medical insurance, billing and reimbursement processing. Factors such as increase in healthcare expenditure worldwide, growing need to curtail healthcare costs, and establish efficient healthcare reimbursement systems have driven the demand for medical coding services. The medical coding market is expected to witness further growth driven by the widespread adoption of electronic health records and the transition to more automated coding solutions.
The global medical coding market has been witnessing strong growth driven by several factors. The rising geriatric population and subsequent increase in age-related diseases and healthcare costs have generated a considerable demand for medical coding services. Additionally, the implementation of favorable government regulations supporting electronic medical record adoption along with initiatives to curb medical fraud have boosted market revenues. However, factors such as shortage of skilled coders and lack of standardized processes continue to restrain the market growth to some extent. On the other hand, industry players are focusing on emerging markets for future opportunities. Technology advancements with artificial intelligence (AI) and automated coding solutions also present new avenues for greater market expansion
