NOW AVAILABLE: Subscription with 2026 CPT® Codes! -------------------------------------- Free to try before you buy! Streamlined and efficient, Mobile Coder is a mobile CPT® billing App that puts an end to anesthesiology coding troubles. Mobile Coder Anesthesia includes a comprehensive set of CPT® codes used by anesthesiologists. Via a simple graphical interface and several search options, you can quickly create a patient file, and then find and apply the CPT® codes you’re looking for to that patient. Simply touch the relevant anatomic zone to quickly and easily locate tailored lists of CPT® codes for that zone. A handy text search offers a powerful way 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. You can apply modifiers to your codes, and add extra notes to each code you use in case extra details would help your billing department. A full procedure report containing all patient identifying data, plus CPT® code(s), 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 convenient reference. Residents and anyone collecting cases for research or board recertification should find the logging feature useful. Want to track your Mobile Coder data offline?
