Towards automated clinical coding [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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 ...
