CODEinfo Limited

Clinical coding is the translation of clinical data into statistical code. The encoding schemes currently used in the UK are ICD-10 (The International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision) and OPCS 4 (OPCS Classification of Interventions and Procedures). The data produced is used to underpin payments and epidemiology. CODEinfo Limited is a company that provides training, auditing and consultancy services to support clients in achieving accurate clinical coding. Our clients have included public (both provider and commissioner), independent sector, national, international organisations and commercial sector companies. CODEinfo was formed to meet the growing clinical coding training, auditing and consulting needs of both public, private/independant and commercial clients. The company has continued to grow since its inception partly due its reputation for independance but also because of our commitment to providing a quality service and because of our ability to think creatively, with a fresh and impartial perspective and with our clients best interests in mind. CODEinfo is your gateway to accessing skilled, and experienced independant clinical coding expertise on an out-sourced basis. Using an independant trainer, auditor or consultant is usually cost-effective as we can be brought in as and when needed. CODEinfo is a proud sponsor of the Professional Association of Clinical Coders-UK. We sponsor PACC-UK because clinically coded data is also patient data. It is the companies view, that those who undertake the role of translator of clinical data into a coded format (data that forms part of the patient record) should be professionally qualified and supported. PACC-UK is the only organisation in the UK that is solely committed to that purpose. The necessity for accurate and timely data in the health sector has never been greater. CODEinfo can provide a range of tailored services to support your achieving these goals.
