How It Works — SmartCoding.ai CDI

Simple process. Immediate insight.

No EHR integration required for the pilot. Upload charts, get answers within minutes.

Sign Up

Create your practice account and accept the BAA.

Upload Charts

50–100 patient charts: PCP notes, specialist notes, labs, medication lists.

AI Analyzes

Cross-references every document to find what's documented but not coded.

Get Your Report

Per-patient findings with severity, evidence, and estimated revenue impact.

1. Sign Up — minutes, not days

You register your practice with NPI and contact info. Our team validates against the CMS NPPES registry and reviews your application — typically within 1–2 business days. Once approved, you're in. No procurement cycle, no integration meetings.

2. Upload Charts — PDF, TXT, or RTF

For each patient, upload up to 20 documents: PCP encounter notes, specialist consult notes, lab result reports, medication lists, problem lists, imaging reports. Whatever you have. We extract structured data automatically — no manual tagging, no field mapping. Files are stored encrypted; we hold them only as long as you need the analysis.

3. AI Analyzes — multi-layered, evidence-based

Our analysis runs in four passes: diagnosis comparison (PCP code vs. specialist documentation); lab inference (abnormal values mapped to implied conditions using CMS-aligned reference ranges); medication inference (active drugs mapped to conditions they imply); and an AI validation pass to reduce false positives. Every flagged gap comes with the evidence — you see exactly which document and which value triggered it.

4. Get Your Report — actionable, not academic

You get a per-patient report listing each gap, its severity, the suggested code change, and the estimated annual revenue impact based on CMS HCC coefficients. Aggregated across the practice, you'll see your top missed diagnoses and total opportunity. The PDF is provider-ready — share it with your billing team, your CDI staff, or your physicians for the next encounter.
