Vendor Directory
Please support the following vendors who financially support our association:  
A-Life Medical provides medical coding workflow management through computer automation to
streamline the billing process.  A-Life allows your organization to significantly increase
productivity and compliance by eliminating paper-based activities and manual processes such as
demographic matching, data entry, report sorting, filing and storage, while also benefiting from
accurate automated coding.  A-Life's patented Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology,
LifeCode, is able to read and understand physician notes just as a human coder does, and
accurately assign ICD-9, CPT, and HCPCS II codes based upon Medicare guidelines.  Payer
specific and provider specific rules including CCI edits, modifiers, and your LCD can also be
applied through the Billing Rules Module.  Physician notes are processed and routed to specified
queues allowing your coders to quickly identify notes that require human review.
