AI-assisted medical coding cuts claim denials
Healthcare Provider — a healthcare organisation — engaged Skillikz on ai-assisted coding: GenAI that drafts accurate codes for clinician review. This case study sets out the business challenge, the AI-led approach we took, the technologies involved and the measurable outcomes delivered over 6 months.
Manual medical coding was slow and error-prone, and coding errors drove costly claim denials and rework.
We built an AI assistant that drafts codes from clinical notes for coder validation, grounded and fully auditable.
Claim denials fell 28% and coders work faster, with humans validating every code and a complete audit trail.
The AI services behind this outcome
A project like this draws on a focused set of Skillikz services — from first assessment to a working pilot and a clear path to scale.
