NOW AVAILABLE: Subscription with 2026 CPT® Codes! -------------------------------------- Free to try before you buy! The first mobile CPT® billing application designed by an orthopedic surgeon for orthopedic surgeons. Streamlined and efficient, Mobile Coder puts an end to your coding troubles. Mobile Coder Orthopedics offers a unique graphical interface and several searching options to help you quickly identify the correct CPT® codes you’re looking for. Simply touch the relevant anatomic zone for tailored lists of CPT® codes that are easy to search. A handy text search is also provided as a powerful tool to target the correct procedure codes. Another convenient feature allows you to identify "favorite" CPT® codes so common procedures can be pulled up very quickly. Mobile Coder Orthopedics includes a comprehensive set of CPT® codes used by general orthopedic surgeons, foot specialists, and hand specialists. You can apply modifiers to your codes, and also use the same code multiple times for the same patient - great when more than one toe or finger is operated on, for example. In short, Mobile Coder Orthopedics offers the most complete list of codes and time-saving features currently available for use by any orthopedic surgeon. A full procedure report containing all patient identifying data, plus CPT® code(s), surgical assistants, location and date of surgery can be emailed directly to your biller or any email address from within the App. Patient procedure details can be logged and stored for handy future use. Residents and anyone collecting cases for research or board recertification should find this useful. Please note: As downloaded, this is a lite version of Mobile Coder Orthopedics that allows a prospective buyer to sample the user interface and all App functionality, but is limited to one code per anatomic zone sub-category. If you like it, please consider upgrading to the full version via our In-App store for a comprehensive set of CPT® codes for these 10 general orthopedic zones: 1. Shoulder 2. Humerus/Elbow 3. Femur/Thigh/Knee 4. Forearm/Wrist 5. Hand/Finger 6. Pelvis/Hip 7. Tib-Fib/Ankle 8. Foot/Toes 9. E&M 10. Misc Codes PLUS these 12 foot specialist zones: 1. Phalanges 2. Metatarsal 1 3.

The Problem: You have a challenging case coming up and you know there's a product somewhere out there that you need. Where do you find it? Who can get it to you? Are there better options? What techniques do you use? Have your colleagues used it before? The Solution: OrthoAxis™ is the no cost answer to all of these questions. We were founded on the experience and frustrations of an upper extremity surgeon who was looking for the same answers. After spending 6 weeks researching and calling reps looking for a specific orthopaedic product, he was told the product had been discontinued. He knew there had to be a better way and realized that there was no single place to find all of the orthopaedic information he needed. OrthoAxis™ brings all of the players together in one place, so there is no more time wasted hunting down products, reps, and information. If you need information and we don't have it, we will find it! OrthoAxis™: Everything Orthopaedic in One, Easy Location. • Access help from colleagues. • Archive and share important cases through the forum. • Connect to the right rep/company and find surgical technique guides 24/7. • Research, compare, review, rate orthopaedic products/reps, and save contact information for online messaging. • Find links to news, journals, and orthopaedic society pages. • Find a job or register for a conference, on your time. What you need, when you need it! Join us at www.doortoaxis.com and create your free account today!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OrthoAxis at none against Mobile Coder Orthopedics's 13. OrthoAxis also leads on iOS requirement (12.4 vs 18.0). Mobile Coder Orthopedics's advantage is update cadence (every 5 months vs every 14 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
