Imagine you are a coding supervisor. What emphasis would you place on the Standards of Ethical Coding in your area? Would you include the Standards of Ethical Coding in your policy and procedure manual? Would you review the Standards of Ethical Coding on a regular basis and if yes, how often? What disciplinary action would you take if you found that a coder violated the Standards of Ethical Coding? Would the severity of the disciplinary action depend on which standard was violated? Why or why not? How do imperfections in coding affect the budget preparation of health care organizations? How might it also affect the contracts between professional billers and coders and health care organizations?
The paper must be 3 – 4 pages, not counting the title page and reference page (5 – 7 pages).
You must include 4 – 6 academic references, using citations to support your statements.
Cite all sources of information within your written text.
These following level heading might be useful in organizing your paper:
Introduction of Coding
Standards of Ethical Coding
Policies and Procedures
Violations, Penalties
Effects of Improper Coding
Conclusion
Use paraphrasing to discuss the topic in a written paper. Refrain from using “direct quotes”. At the graduate level, you should have very few, if any, direct quotes in your writing. Paraphrasing (with citations) is the aim for graduate level writing. If you must use a direct quote, it should back up your statements, not be the means of presenting the facts.
Download and use the sample paper in doc sharing to format your title page, citations and the reference list in approved APA format.
