ABSTRACT

As a crucial component of medical information management, the coding of the medical record front page is directly associated with the accuracy of medical data statistics, medical insurance settlement, and the reliability of medical research. Nevertheless, the current coding work of the medical record front page confronts numerous challenges, such as the uneven professional proficiency of coding personnel, the sub - standard quality of medical record writing, and the cumbersome coding process, which result in the coding accuracy being unable to meet the practical requirements. With the rapid advancement of information technology, electronic medical record systems, coding assistance software, and natural language processing technology have gradually been applied in the field of medical record front - page coding, offering novel solutions for enhancing coding accuracy. Through mechanisms such as data standardization, intelligent coding assistance, quality control and review, and knowledge sharing and training, information technology effectively reduces human errors, optimizes the coding process, and improves the efficiency and quality of coding. This study aims to explore the application effectiveness of information technology in the coding of the medical record front page, analyze its mechanism of action, evaluate its achievements in combination with real - life cases, provide feasible improvement strategies for medical institutions, and promote the modern development of the coding work of the medical record front page.
