Our Medical Coding, Medical Record Audit, Data Abstraction, Research Support and Medical Staffing Services
We help you deal with multiple information and data management “tsunamis” – dependably, responsively, affordably.
Increasingly in the coming years, healthcare professionals – providers, public and private payers, third party administrators and regulators alike – will face relentless and growing pressure to achieve better results while lowering costs. It will become more critical than ever to squeeze fraud, waste and abuse out of the system. Healthcare organizations will be required to demonstrate their value proposition to budget-conscious lawmakers and employers, as well as to an increasingly demanding and sophisticated public and press.
We provide the health information management and staffing solutions a healthcare organization will need to meet those challenges:
ICD-10 Planning & Implementation
HCRS’s AHIMA-certified ICD-10 coder/trainers and experienced hospital management consultants will become your trusted advisors through ICD-10 implementation, beginning with a full-scale readiness assessment, a comprehensive action plan, a full training curriculum for your coding team, physicians, nurses and support staff, and step by assistance as you implement the plan.
Medical Coding
HCRS offers e-l ICD-9 and ICD-10 coding accuracy, productivity and affordability that meets or exceeds the demanding requirements of academic medical centers, health services researchers and Department of Defense hospitals for accuracy, productivity and customer satisfaction. Our AHIMA- or AAPC-certified coders all must have at least three years experience before we hire them. We specialize in tight deadlines and challenging workloads.
Medical Records Auditing
HCRS is emerging as a complex chart review specialist of choice for Medicare and Medicaid. We currently conduct Medicaid reviews in 19 states and three territories, and Medicare reviews in three states and the Pacific.

HCRS has extensive experience staffing health care professionals in all types of clinical and administrative support roles: physicians and nurses for all medical specialties, as well as medical office administrative and support personnel. We will also provide you with onsite or remote medical records coders and auditors, whether for a short-term backlog or to manage all of your healthcare information management system needs.

HCRS works with research organizations to provide data abstraction, data quality analysis, medical coding and medical record review, and logistical and administrative support for health services research. Our clients have included RTI International, IMPAQ International, and Westat, supporting research within the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the Maryland Health Care Commission, and other investigators.
