Web-Based Medical Coding Content: A Wealth of Content by Code
Today’s world of the technology:
• Rotary dial phones instead of our iPhones or Androids (Show of hands)
• Encyclopedias/libraries vs. Internet (today’s library)
• Handwritten letters/documents vs. email
• Computers in our jobs (Can you imagine a life without them? Anyone?)
Let us show you how web-based coding information products and replace VOLUMES of
print content, and how it can provide this content in the same way as a book/newsletter,
only with more current information and much more efficient look-up capabilities. The
majority of users of these web-based products often wonder how they did their job before
using these products…you will too!
In this presentation we will discuss…
• Why web-based medical coding information applications?
• A massive library of coding content: A focus on clinical documentation and exclusive
AMA CPT® content.
• Why Optum360? Simply…the Optum360 proprietary content and exclusive content
delivery permissions.
