Accredited Clinical Coder

ACCREDITED CLINICAL CODER - TARGETED AUDIT & BACKLOG OVERVIEW

Location: Fully Remote

Contract Length: 6 Months Minimum

Start Date: March 2nd 2026 - You will be provided with a 1 week handover for your preparation

We are seeking a highly experienced Accredited Clinical Coder (ACC) for a specialist 6-month remote contract. This project is focused on a high-value targeted audit of comorbidities within a Trust's non-elective (emergency) backlog. This is a critical role designed to ensure clinical accuracy and optimise the Trust's financial reimbursement through meticulous retrospective checks and HRG validation.

• The Workload: You will be responsible for reviewing and amending a retrospective backlog of non-elective cases. Unlike standard coding, this role requires a "detective" mindset to identify missed comorbidities and complications (CCs) that accurately reflect patient complexity.
• Focus: Reviewing emergency admission records to ensure all relevant comorbidities are captured.
• Impact: Amending existing coding to improve data quality and HRG accuracy.
• Requirements: Essential:
• National Clinical Coding Qualification (ACC) is mandatory.
• Expert knowledge of ICD-10 and OPCS-4 standards.
• Proven experience in Non-Elective/Emergency admission coding.
• Ability to work independently in a fully remote capacity while maintaining high productivity. You will be a fully integrated member of the clinical coding team for the duration of this contract.

• Previous experience in Clinical Coding Validation or Auditing.
