A Day in the Life: How Automated Medical Coding with MediMobile's Genesis Transforms Clinician Workflows

For clinicians, every day brings a blend of rewarding patient care and the less exciting task of medical documentation and coding. The challenge of balancing patient interactions with accurate coding can lead to stress, longer work hours, and even lost revenue. MediMobile’s Genesis, our revolutionary automated medical coding system, was created to eliminate that burden and allow clinicians to focus on what matters most: caring for their patients.

Let’s walk through a typical day with Genesis, highlighting how this powerful tool simplifies the workflow at every step.

8:00 AM – Morning Rounds, Focused on Patients

Dr. Martinez arrives at the hospital, ready for her morning rounds. She greets her patients, examining charts and providing updates on their treatment plans. Before MediMobile’s Genesis, she would have spent her lunch break manually entering notes and looking up the appropriate medical codes to ensure the billing department captured every procedure. But today, Genesis is working in the background, analyzing her clinical documentation in real-time.

Example: After a quick visit to a patient recovering from surgery, Dr. Martinez inputs brief notes into the EMR. Thanks to Genesis, CPT and ICD-10 codes are automatically generated based on her input. The system instantly suggests the appropriate level of coding, minimizing the risk of undercoding or misbilling. No more flipping through codebooks or worrying about missed revenue!

10:00 AM – Mid-Morning Emergencies, Streamlined Workflow

Just as Dr. Martinez is wrapping up her rounds, she gets called to the ER to assist with a new patient experiencing chest pain. While attending to the urgent situation, she documents the encounter quickly to focus on stabilizing the patient.

Genesis immediately steps in, automatically suggesting the correct codes for a chest pain evaluation, diagnostic tests, and any treatments provided—all before she leaves the patient’s side. Later, Dr. Martinez is relieved to know that she won’t have to spend time deciphering notes or making corrections because Genesis has already optimized the coding accuracy.

12:30 PM – Lunch Break Without Documentation Stress

Lunch is a moment of reprieve, but for most clinicians, it’s often consumed by catching up on paperwork. However, with Genesis in place, Dr. Martinez has already completed her coding for the morning. She enjoys a rare opportunity to eat lunch without the stress of backlogged documentation weighing her down.

In fact, she’s already saved two hours by letting Genesis automate the charge capture and code generation processes. This system also checks for any missing information, so she can rest easy knowing her documentation is complete and compliant.

2:00 PM – Complex Case with No Fear of Underbilling

After lunch, Dr. Martinez meets with a patient with multiple chronic conditions. The visit involves several procedures and requires complex documentation. In the past, she might have been overwhelmed, knowing she would need to ensure each aspect was coded accurately to reflect the time and resources spent.

Genesis makes this process seamless. As Dr. Martinez inputs details into the EMR, Genesis flags each service, procedure, and diagnosis, suggesting multiple CPT codes and even MIPS measures to ensure compliance and maximum reimbursement. What used to take 30 minutes now happens in real-time, leaving no room for missed charges or coding inaccuracies.

4:30 PM – End of the Day, No Overflow of Administrative Work

At the end of the day, Dr. Martinez reviews her patients' charts and sees the results of Genesis in action. All charges are captured, codes are selected, and there’s no leftover documentation to complete. Unlike before, when she’d leave the hospital with hours of coding left to handle at home, Dr. Martinez can now head home on time with a clear mind.

How Genesis Transforms Your Workflow

MediMobile’s Genesis doesn’t just automate coding—it transforms how clinicians like Dr. Martinez manage their entire day. Here’s how it can do the same for you:

  1. Real-Time Code Generation
    No more manually searching for the right codes or worrying about coding errors. Genesis generates CPT and ICD-10 codes automatically based on your clinical notes, minimizing mistakes and maximizing reimbursements.
  2. Improved Workflow Efficiency
    The system works behind the scenes, allowing you to spend less time on documentation and more time with your patients. This translates to a 75% reduction in coding workload, streamlining your day from start to finish.
  3. Boosted Revenue and Compliance
    With real-time insurance updates and compliance checks, Genesis ensures that each charge aligns with current guidelines. You’ll capture every possible revenue opportunity while staying compliant with industry standards.
  4. Enhanced Clinical Documentation
    Missed information or incomplete documentation is a thing of the past. Genesis flags missing details and provides suggestions, ensuring you meet coding requirements without additional work.
  5. ROI in Record Time
    Most healthcare practices see a return on investment in just 1 to 3 months after adopting Genesis. The efficiency gains, reduced error rates, and optimized revenue capture make this one of the most impactful tools you can implement in your practice.
