Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming healthcare operations, and coding is no exception. In this session, we’ll explore how AI is reshaping the coding landscape, enhancing accuracy, streamlining workflows and strengthening compliance, while also raising new questions about risk, documentation quality and the evolving role of coders. From a revenue cycle and analytics perspective, we’ll examine how AI is being applied in ASCs today, including computer-assisted coding, audit automation and enhanced documentation support. Most importantly, we’ll highlight why coders remain essential to success, not replaced by AI but elevated as strategic experts who ensure accuracy and protect revenue. Participants will leave with insights into how AI can be thoughtfully applied to coding today, and what it means for the future
