Commure Autonomous Coding has achieved official Epic Toolbox designation in the Fully Autonomous Coding category. This development allows healthcare providers to integrate automated coding workflows directly into their existing Epic systems.
Why it matters
This designation enables health systems to utilize a single vendor for the entire process from provider notes to final coded charges within Epic. It aims to reduce administrative burdens by streamlining how ICD-10, CPT, and E&M codes are generated.
Commure processes 7% of American healthcare appointments across a platform serving over 500,000 users. At Ob Hospitalist Group, AI successfully coded over 85% of all charges during the initial deployment phase.
