From clinical note to a reported. coded episode
Follow a single episode from the moment it arrives to the day it's reported on. One thread runs through every step: you can always see why.
Episodes arrive two ways.
However a case enters, MediqCode creates the episode and queues it for routing under the rules you control.
Upload a discharge letter
A coder clicks Upload Discharge Letter. MediqCode parses the document, extracts demographics and clinical content, creates the episode, and queues it for routing.
Straight from your HIS/EMR
Episodes flow in automatically from your hospital information system — the default for most production deployments. No upload step, no copy-paste.
One episode, eight steps.
The same path every episode takes — explainability runs through all of it.
Step 1
Intake
A coder uploads a discharge letter, or episodes arrive automatically from your HIS/EMR — the default in production.
Step 2
AI processing
MediqCode reads the documentation and builds a coder-friendly case overview and a day-by-day episode timeline.
Step 3
Explainable suggestions
The ICD-10-AM Assistant proposes codes ranked by evidence — each shown with the source text behind it.
Step 4
Clinical narrative
Presenting complaint, comorbidities, complications, and procedures — every diagnosis carries its justification.
Step 5
DRG grouping
Applied codes roll up to a live AR-DRG with MDC, severity, weight, price, and the Condition Onset Flag.
Step 6
Queries
Send a compliance-safe clinician query in one click; threads stay attached to the episode and resolve in the inbox.
Step 7
Audit
Auditors recode via Swap Code with a catalogued reason and see the DRG impact before they commit.
Step 8
Reporting
Five reports turn coding output into operational and financial insight, from activity to case mix.
No black boxes. Every code shows its evidence.
MediqCode reads the clinical documentation as the source of truth. The thread that makes coding defensible runs through the whole journey.
