Large language models for extraction of OPS-codes from operative reports in meningioma surgery.

Acta neurochirurgica
BACKGROUND: In the German medical billing system, surgical departments encode their procedures in OPS-codes. These OPS-codes have major impact on DRG grouping and thus mainly determine each case“s revenue. In our study, we investigate the ability of ...

Artificial Intelligence to Improve Clinical Coding Practice in Scandinavia: Crossover Randomized Controlled Trial.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Clinical coding is critical for hospital reimbursement, quality assessment, and health care planning. In Scandinavia, however, coding is often done by junior doctors or medical secretaries, leading to high rates of coding errors. Artifici...

Documentation, Coding, and Billing for Neurologic Services and Procedures.

Seminars in neurology
Documentation, coding, and billing (claims submission) are foundational to neurologic practice in the United States, enabling accurate reimbursement, effective communication, and data-driven advancements in patient care, research, and education. Neur...

Evaluating Large Language Model's accuracy in current procedural terminology coding given operative note templates across various plastic surgery sub-specialties.

Journal of plastic, reconstructive & aesthetic surgery : JPRAS
BACKGROUND: Manual CPT coding from operative notes is a time-intensive process that adds to the administrative burden in healthcare. Large Language Models (LLMs) offer a promising solution, but their accuracy in assigning CPT codes based on full oper...

How to leverage large language models for automatic ICD coding.

Computers in biology and medicine
ICD coding, which involves assigning appropriate ICD codes to clinical notes, is essential for healthcare tasks such as health expense claims, insurance claims, and disease research. Manual ICD coding is time-consuming and prone to errors, increasing...

Application of Clinical Department-Specific AI-Assisted Coding Using Taiwan Diagnosis-Related Groups: Retrospective Validation Study.

JMIR human factors
BACKGROUND: The accuracy of the ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) procedure coding system (PCS) is crucial for generating correct Taiwan diagnosis-related groups (DRGs), as coding errors can l...

Developing an ICD-10 Coding Assistant: Pilot Study Using RoBERTa and GPT-4 for Term Extraction and Description-Based Code Selection.

JMIR formative research
BACKGROUND: The International Classification of Diseases (ICD), developed by the World Health Organization, standardizes health condition coding to support health care policy, research, and billing, but artificial intelligence automation, while promi...

LCDL: Classification of ICD codes based on disease label co-occurrence dependency and LongFormer with medical knowledge.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Medical coding involves assigning codes to clinical free-text documents, specifically medical records that average over 3,000 markers, in order to track patient diagnoses and treatments. This is typically accomplished through manual assignments by he...

Large Language Models can Help with Biostatistics and Coding Needed in Radiology Research.

Academic radiology
INTRODUCTION: Original research in radiology often involves handling large datasets, data manipulation, statistical tests, and coding. Recent studies show that large language models (LLMs) can solve bioinformatics tasks, suggesting their potential in...
