Inside the coding agent: auto-suggested E/M and CPT codes at signature
reimbursement
How WoundScribe's coding agent reads the finished note and suggests defensible E/M and CPT codes before the clinician signs — no separate coder pass.
Reimbursement leakage in wound care usually isn't fraud — it's fatigue. The clinician downcodes to avoid audit risk, or forgets to add the debridement CPT that the note actually supports. Either way, revenue and compliance both suffer.
WoundScribe's coding agent closes that gap at the moment of signature.
How the agent builds a code recommendation
- Reads the structured note — pulls wound count, depth, tissue type, and time spent from the chart, not a separate form
- Maps to E/M and CPT — suggests the level of service and any procedure codes (debridement by depth, application codes, etc.) supported by the documentation
- Flags gaps — if the note is one sentence away from a higher supportable level, it says so before you sign
- Audit trail — every suggestion links back to the sentence in the note that justifies it
Why suggestion beats auto-coding
The clinician stays in control. The agent proposes; the provider accepts, adjusts, or overrides. That's the posture Medicare auditors want to see, and it's how WISER claims and compliance keeps documentation and codes in sync.
