WE LOVE iRCODER!! iRCODER has made coding procedures really simple. The step-by-step instructions and easy to understand explanations are very helpful in coding new procedures. iRCODER is a MUST HAVE in any Interventional Lab.

iRCODER has been and continues to be a priceless asset to our Cardiac Cath / Angiography Lab! This invaluable tool has assisted us in capturing codes that our facility would have otherwise not known were billable. iRCODER is extremely user-friendly and the company support for the product is outstanding. We would highly recommend iRCODER to any Imaging Department that performs interventional procedures!

iRCODER was all that we had been promised, and more! Our staff were well trained before go live and they were there to support and walk along side us as needed to help us succeed. It was a piece that I did not have to be concerned about. The process is so well defined and the support was so evident that our staff had total confidence. As you know, coding of procedures can be very complex. Your program makes it correct, complete, and efficient. We particularly like the ability to assist the physicians with their coding through iRCODER as well. The iRCODER system meets the needs of Interventional Radiology, Cardiac Cath Lab, Electrophysiology, and Structural Heart. New procedures and guidelines are added, insurance and Medicare updates are applied automatically. Again, thanks team for your excellence, your commitment, and your presence!

iRCODER takes the guess work out of coding peripheral, cardiac and electrophysiology cases. I like the ease in which you can access the web based application and start coding from the moment you start the case. The application remains 100% current with constant changes to coding sector. The other nice feature is that the application takes into consideration the type of insurance the patient has and codes accordingly. There help and support is phenomenal. Many questions can be answered by the end of a case or soon after. Modifying cases is easy and the print outs help the staff understand what the code encompasses for learning purposes. Daily I receive a printed detailed report of what was coded when, by whom, and total counts for the day. This program has been a welcomed change in the work flow of charging for procedures.

I cannot say enough good things about iRCODER’s application and staff. I have worked with coding/charge capture for interventional cardiology, radiology and vascular procedures for a very long time. Interventional cardiology, radiology and vascular coding/charge capture was very complicated UNTIL the inception of iRCODER. The ease of using iRCODER is truly remarkable since it is set up in a step by step procedure process. The nurses and radiology techs always stated “I am not a coder”. Now, they don’t even realize that using iRCODER is allowing them to know the process of coding these procedures. As for increased revenue, I think many of us (if not all of us) can agree that this application has increased revenue for the Cardiac Cath Labs and Interventional Radiology (Specials) departments.

C.G., Manager Budgets & Coverage, Mercy Health, Corporate

iRCODER is wonderful, it has made the technologist job much easier. The transition to IR coder has been very beneficial to our department.
