# AI Billing Guide - Generating billing codes automatically in the EHR

## Overview

### What is AI Coding?

When triggered, AI Coding automatically adds the following types of codes to the Billing Section of your visit note based on the information listed:

* **CPT Codes** - Evaluation & Management CPT codes are auto-populated based information included in the patient’s chart.
* **Diagnosis Codes** - Suggests and populates supporting ICD‑10 diagnosis codes per CPT line based on the visit note snapshot and the patient’s problem list.
* **NDC Codes** - Identifies drug codes and auto-populates NDC code, dosage, measure, and units using the patient’s chart and historical claims.

AI Coding will not overwrite any existing codes that are in the bill.

### What are the benefits of AI Coding?

AI Coding expedites coding and improves coding accuracy and completeness.

## Setup

AI Coding must be enabled by an Admin Level User by following these steps:

| **1** | Click **Settings** -> **Billing** .                                                          |
| ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **2** | Go to the **AI Billing** section and set the **Billing Analysis** toggle to **green (ON)** . |

## Workflow Instructions

### Using AI Coding

To use AI Coding:

| **1** | Ensure your visit note documentation is complete.                                                                                                                                                                                 |
| ----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **2** | Open the **Billing Section** of the visit note. Either click **+ Add Billing Information** or **Edit Bill**.                                                                                                                      |
| **3** | Click **Generate Codes** or **Apply Codes**. If a medication or injection CPT code is applied, AI Coding will look for NDC information in historical claims with the same CPT code and include the NDC information with the bill. |
| **4** | Review all codes added by AI Coding for accuracy.                                                                                                                                                                                 |
| **5** | Click **Save & Close** to save the bill.                                                                                                                                                                                          |
