Improving Efficiency in Documentation and Coding Compliance

The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at University of Utah Health is recognized internationally for excellence in clinical care, medical education, and research.Our physicians and staff provide world-class expertise in the specialty and sub-specialties of obstetrics and gynecology. In recent years, there have been several budget reductions in the department which have created a push for increased efficiency and productivity. Our department strives for efficiency in clinic and patient encounters. The goal of the project is to improve our providers' documentation and clinical billing knowledge. This will ideally lead to improved efficiencies in documentation and increase our providers' and department's revenue and overall billing compliance without increasing clinical work.
