Towards automated clinical coding [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Informatics, 2018 Patients' encounters with healthcare services must undergo clinical coding. These codes are typically derived from free-text notes. Manual clinical coding is expensive, time-consuming and prone to error. Automated clinical coding systems have great potential to save resources, and realtime availability of codes would improve oversight of patient care ...

Autoencoder-Based Prediction of ICU Clinical Codes
, 2023 Availability of diagnostic codes in Electronic Health Records (EHRs) is crucial for patient care as well as reimbursement purposes. However, entering them in the EHR is tedious, and some clinical codes may be overlooked. Given an in-complete list of clinical codes, we investigate the performance of ML methods on predicting the complete ones, and assess

4.2 Clinical records and global diagnostic codes
European Journal of Dental Education, 2002 A clinical record should include the personal demographic details of the patient, health status, diagnostic information and management/treatment options. However, clinical records are of little use without effective filing and retrieving systems. Coding is therefore necessary to deal with large amounts of differing data and a global coding system could
