Healthcare administrative costs consume an estimated 15 to 20 percent of every dollar spent in the American healthcare system. A quarter of that is medical coding alone, a process that has remained largely manual, subjective, and error-prone for decades.

Hamid Tabatabaie, Founder and CEO of CodaMetrix, joins host John Driscoll to discuss how autonomous coding AI is making the shift from subjective to objective coding a reality across 35 of the largest health systems in the country, and why getting the codes right is not just a billing issue but a clinical one that directly affects patient care and outcomes.
