SOLUTIONS | AUTONOMOUS INPATIENT CODING
AKASA is the first autonomous solution built for inpatient. The AI reads the complete chart and codes the encounter independently, across all specialties. Accurate diagnosis. Accurate DRG. Accurate quality capture.
Tested against expert coders. AI matched or exceeded them.
In a third-party evaluation, AKASA and expert coders coded the same inpatient encounters across categories (representing 65% to 85% of inpatient volume at most health systems). Independent reviewers, unaware whether each code set came from AI or a human, found AKASA matched or exceeded expert coders on key accuracy measures.

WITH AKASA:
90 seconds
01
Reads the complete chart
Discharge summaries, operative notes, progress notes, consults, labs, imaging, medications. Every note from every provider, across all specialties.
02
Codes the encounter independently
No queue, no partial pass. AKASA works the encounter start to finish and assigns the code set comprehensively.
03
Gets the codes correct
Accurate procedures. Accurate principal diagnosis. Accurate MS-DRG. Accurate present on admission. Graded against expert coders in a blinded third-party evaluation.
04
Shows the evidence behind every code
Every code links to the exact language in the chart that supports it, with the rationale and the confidence behind it. Validation takes seconds, and the audit trail is already built.
05
Codes at discharge, so billing doesn't wait
The encounter is coded when the chart closes, not days later. Lower DNFC, fewer A/R days, cash in the door sooner.
06
Works inside the boundaries you set
You define thresholds, service line rules, payer mix, and audit sampling. AKASA is tuned to your coding standards and your documentation patterns, and codes only what you've approved it to code.
Accelerate time to bill
Encounters are coded at discharge instead of days later. DNFC falls, A/R days fall, and cash arrives sooner without adding headcount.
Improve DRG and quality performance
Accurate principal diagnosis, accurate MS-DRG, accurate present on admission. Your quality reporting and risk adjustment reflect the acuity you actually treated.
Reduce audit exposure
A leaner, better-evidenced code set means fewer unsupported codes reach the bill, and every code arrives with the chart language behind it.
Strengthen compliance you can defend
Consistent application of your coding guidelines and payer rules on every encounter, with the rationale documented before anyone asks for it.
Expand capacity without hiring
Capacity scales with your volume, not your headcount. Routine encounters code themselves, so your experts stay on the complex cases.
Modernize your coding stack
AKASA works alongside your existing tools, so moving toward autonomy doesn’t require a rip and replace.
Legacy workflow tools
Built on rules, not clinical reasoning. Samples the chart instead of reading it. Suggests codes without showing the documentation behind them. Generic logic that never learns your health system.
Outpatient-first vendors
Built for low-complexity encounters. Partial review that misses secondary diagnoses. Codes arrive without citations or confidence. Unproven at inpatient scale.
Outsourced coding
Built around whoever is available that week. Complete review, at manual speed and manual cost with significant quality issues. Retrospective queries instead of evidence up front. Incentives tied to volume, not to your accuracy.
AKASA AUTONOMOUS INPATIENT CODING
Purpose-built for inpatient complexity, across all specialties. Full-chart review, every document, every encounter. Every code linked to the chart language behind it, with confidence evaluated at the encounter level. A model built on your documentation, case mix, and coding standards, with ICD-10-CM/PC built in. Works alongside your existing EHR and billing systems.
