TruCode Encoder Essentials

TruCode Encoder Essentials represents all the core functionality of the TruCode Encoder, but delivered as services and components via the cloud. Encoder Essentials allows channel partners and other companies to easily embed TruCode by TruBridge functionality directly into their applications such as CAC and CDI systems and code auditing applications. Eliminate cumbersome and costly encoder interfaces and achieve true integration with TruCode Encoder Essentials.

The user interface components can be individually embedded into any application that displays HTML content. Integrate one TruCode feature or integrate them all. Your ability to “encoder-enable” your EHR, EMR, CDI and HIS applications are endless.

TruCode Encoder Essentials takes enterprise-wide coding workflow to a whole new level. Users across the organization have instant access to the right codes, the right DRG and the right coding guidelines.

The result? More efficient billing and payment throughout your system and across your customers’ entire healthcare organization.

Other benefits include the following:

Eliminate costly and cumbersome encoder interfaces.
Embed encoder intelligence directly within existing applications—all users, all systems, all settings.
Give coding professionals rapid access to sophisticated code searches, comprehensive references and edit/reimbursement validation tools.
