MC Strategies Releases Coder's Knowledge Inventory Tool

Product automatically assigns prescriptive training

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) November 16, 2006 -- MC Strategies, Inc., a leader in e-learning solutions for healthcare professionals, announced the release of its Coder's Knowledge Inventory Tool (KIT), an online benchmark and training tool used to identify and increase the knowledge, skills and performance of your current and new coding staff.

"What makes this program so valuable is that it automatically assigns a prescriptive training plan unique to each coder, precluding the HIM manager from having to create a training module for each employee," said Maribel Rodriguez- Brogden, Vice President, Program Planning for MC Strategies. "The Coder's KIT is mapped to our proprietary EduCode® Coding/Terminology curriculum, thereby ensuring that coders have access to the most authoritative and current information."

The Coder's Knowledge Inventory Tool addresses both inpatient and outpatient concerns with approximately 70 multiple choice questions in each section on coding guidelines, medical terminology and assigning codes. In addition, detailed reports provide managers with a summary of the coder's knowledge level in key categories.

MC Strategies supplies coding and revenue enhancement-related curricula to healthcare professionals. Courses are delivered by the company's Knowledge Deployment System® (KDS), developed to bring interactive e-learning solutions to hospitals and allied healthcare organizations.
