# AI Medical Coder: Maximize Reimbursement Automatically

> Futurum's AI Medical Coder extracts and validates accurate ICD and CPT codes from visit documentation to maximize revenue and eliminate undercoding.

Futurum AI Medical Coder analyzes your visit documentation and automatically extracts the most accurate ICD and CPT codes. It validates every code against clinical context, catches missed billing opportunities, and can capture up to \$60K annually from proper coding — without adding any work to your workflow.

## Key Capabilities

AI Coder covers the full coding lifecycle — from extracting the right codes to validating them and flagging missed opportunities — without any manual lookups from your billing team.

## How It Works

AI Coder runs automatically after each visit, moving from note to validated billing codes without any manual steps from your team.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Documentation Is Completed">
    AI Scribe or Charting AI finishes your visit documentation as soon as the patient encounter ends.
  </Step>

  <Step title="AI Coder Analyzes the Note">
    AI Coder automatically scans the completed note, identifying every billable diagnosis and procedure within the clinical record.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Codes Are Extracted and Validated">
    Billing codes are pulled from the documentation and cross-referenced against the clinical context to verify accuracy.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Codes Are Flagged for Review">
    Each code is surfaced for physician review alongside the supporting clinical evidence drawn directly from the visit note.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approved Codes Are Submitted">
    Once you approve the final coding record, the codes move through your existing billing workflow for claim submission.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Revenue Impact

Proper coding with AI Coder can capture up to **\$60K in additional annual revenue** — revenue that previously slipped through incomplete or inaccurate manual coding. Every visit is reviewed for its full billing potential, so nothing is left on the table.

<Note>
  AI Coder flags codes for physician review before submission. A clinician always approves the final billing record — Futurum never submits codes without your sign-off.
