In part one of this blog we focused on recall as it relates to CAC.  In today’s post we will start by examining the definition of precision. With precision, we […]

In our recent posts we’ve touched on both productivity and proper tool usage to help achieve the best possible results with Computer Assisted Coding (CAC). This week I thought I […]

In my last blog, I discussed the importance of making valid data comparisons when trying to analyze the impact of computer-assisted coding. I used my own experience in charting my […]

I’m excited to post this next installment in our blog series about using data to better understand and improve your computer-assisted coding (CAC) performance. Our team looks at a LOT […]
