TruCode encoder is a product that was developed answering the needs of the coders in both inpatient and outpatient healthcare facilities. As the list of codes for principal diagnosis and procedures expand over the years due to the emergence of new diseases and treatment procedures, the job of the coders is getting more complicated too. Also, newer regulations and conventions that impact the coding and classification systems demand for a more sophisticated encoder product. TruCode is truly cognizant of the coders needs in terms of technology that remained unanswered over the last few years. Optimize Your Medical Coding Process with TrueCode & Fusion CAC
TruCode results begin with Coders and continue to HIM Directors, CFOs and other professionals who benefit from a more accurate, efficient coding process. Read how TruCode has helped your peers at healthcare organizations across the nation, and then imagine what TruCode can do for you.
“TruCode is more streamlined and coding references are easier to access than others on the market. Our staff is genuinely delighted with TruCode and the great service they provide.”

Fusion CACTM is a Computer-Assisted Coding (CAC) solution that scans documents containing medical phrases and matches them to appropriate ICD9-CM and CPT codes. It is the only automated coding solution that is specifically designed to satisfy both inpatient and outpatient hospital coding requirements. In addition, it also covers all clinical disciplines and subspecialties.
The solution’s patent pending natural language processing technology matches not only routine medical terminology to appropriate codes, but also colloquial terms that physicians use. Our software is designed to “understand” when the use of a medical term represents a code-able event and when it should be ignored, resulting in reduction of over-coding and under-coding errors.

Fusion CACTM uses a unique data extraction engine that allows it to connect and retrieve information from all pertinent systems within a hospital, thereby enabling all patient chart information that resides in various systems to be presented in a single view to the coder. Without this capability, a coder may need to access different systems or re-enter information in order to process accounts. Using Fusion CACTM, hospitals can experience enhanced data flow through diminished billing cycle time and an overall increase in productivity and efficiency.

By automatically extracting pertinent patient information from existing free text narratives in the chart, Fusion CACTM provides the foundation for an Electronic Health Record (EHR). This is unlike other EHR solutions that require information to be constrained to the field of a template. This means health care professionals do not have to change the way they currently do their jobs and allows hospitals to build on their existing IT infrastructure.
