“Find-A-Code makes medical coding easier by providing extensive search terms that are linked to medical codes, which makes them a natural partner for Health Navigator,” said Patty Maynard, senior vice president of business development, Health Navigator. “In the same spirit as Find-A-Code, our system of coded chief complaints is always being updated to keep up with changes in medical coding and trends in patient calls and inquiries.
