ClinPlus® Coding,
this industries most powerful coding software, will meet all of your adverse event and drug
coding challenges accurately and constantly with speed and flexibility.
ClinPlus has been providing reliable coding software for more than 10 years.
The latest release of CPCoding represents a complete re-engineering of our coding
software to incorporate the latest technology and address changes in dictionary formats and
industry requirements while retaining the reliability and flexibility that ClinPlus users have
come to expect.
CPCoding utilizes technology that supports deployment in either Oracle or SQL Server environments and allows coding of Oracle, SQL Server and SAS data using a single implementation. Whatever the configuration, installation, training and project set up time is minimal. A task oriented interface provides quick navigation and will become familiar to your users quickly. Comprehensive context sensitive help is always just a click away.
CPCoding supports virtually any dictionary: MedDRA, WHOdrug (B-1, B-2 and C formats), COSTART, WHOart, ICD9, ICD10 and home grown dictionaries. The country and ingredient information, found in the WHODrug C format dictionary, is utilized during auto and manual coding.
Outstanding hit rates with autocoding
CPCoding runs with unprecedented speed. Thousands of records are auto-coded in less than a minute. Details of each coding job are permanently maintained.
CPCoding is the answer to your coding challenges.
Phrase Substitution
Phrase substitution lists are maintained to dramatically increase hit rates. These lists allow you to control the substitution, removal or modification of single words, phrases or information contained within qualifiers.
For example, you can substitute blood pressure for bp or substitute the suffix s for ing effectively changing words like feels to feeling. You can also use phrase substitution to remove words or phases for instance you can remove the words really and bad so terms like really bad headache will match as headache. Qualifiers such as parentheses may be used to remove extraneous information for example: fever (101.5) would match to fever. All matches possible are presented as suggestions in ranked order for selection.
Flexibility while manual coding
One of the biggest challenges in coding is to maintain consistency but still have control over coding decisions. With CPCoding you can do both easily because the system “learns” as you code. After auto-coding, you can load all un-coded records and use the various search options to find the right match quickly. You can choose to perpetuate your decision to other records with the same verbatim text. You may also choose to automatically add your coding decisions to the thesaurus for use during future coding session.
Dictionary management
Any number of dictionaries, including multiple versions of the same dictionary may be used.
Dictionary loading is completed in minutes. Scripts are provided to load all common dictionaries (MedDRA, WHODrug, COSTART, WHOArt) into SQL Server, Oracle or SAS. Additional scripts may be added as needed.
A supplemental thesaurus is available to maintain terms or medications that either are not found in the main dictionary or are used to override dictionary coding. Terms/meds may be added during manual coding sessions (pending approval).
Multiple SOC (System Organ Class) or ATC (Anatomical Therapeutic Class) codes
When encountering codes that link to multiple SOC or ATC codes, you can choose these yourself or let the system assign the dictionary default. Or, when auto-coding, set the system to pre-select the default or primary path as defined in the dictionary.
Keeping track of decisions
Every code assignment and method is recorded in an audit trail providing access to the coding history of each record along with summary information for each auto-coding job. All coding decisions may be reviewed and marked as approved. The audit trail will record the details of every approval.
Produce customized reports
The report interface is used to produce a variety of the predefined coding reports such as; All Terms Un-coded Terms, Coded Terms, Multiple Body System/ATC, Frequency Counts or Coding History. Subset data and tailor any report by choosing variables to include, rearranging columns, changing the sort order and pagination, then save as a user defined report. Or write your own custom reports from scratch.
Meet the coding challenge
Accuracy and speed are crucial for successfully meeting your coding challenges. CPCoding provides both by reducing the need to manually code while increasing consistency, without losing flexibility.
CPCoding is your solution.
