Inpatient Medical Coding Reviewer, Part-Time AI Coding Review - Remote (United States)

• $50–$70 per hour

• 100% remote

• Part-time

• Fully flexible schedule

Evaluate medical coding AI systems on your own schedule and help improve how they read and code inpatient hospital records.

AI training is the human work behind artificial intelligence: experts read what a model produces, decide whether it is right, and write the feedback that makes the next version better. AI systems learn from examples checked by coding experts, so the teams building them need credentialed inpatient coders who can tell whether coding data is accurate, complete and supported by the documentation. This is part-time contract work done remotely on a flexible schedule.

What you'll do

• Code inpatient documentation using ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS across discharge summaries, progress notes, consultations, operative reports and admission notes

• Validate MS-DRG assignments, including CC and MCC capture, and flag hospital-acquired conditions and patient safety indicators

• Apply UHDDS definitions, AHA Coding Clinic guidance and official ICD-10 guidance, and explain ambiguous documentation and complex cases clearly
