The Evolution of A-Life Medical, Inc.

A-Life Medical, Inc. pioneered the computer-assisted coding (CAC) market segment of the healthcare information technology sector when it set out to find ways to improve the efficiency, accuracy and speed of the medical coding process.

Since its founding in 1996, A-Life has been discovering and introducing various innovative coding solutions that streamline the code-to-collection process using its innovative proprietary technology.

In 2005, A-Life patented and unveiled its Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology, LifeCode®, which now serves as the foundation for the broad portfolio of coding products, services and solutions it has developed for the physician and hospital industries.

LifeCode deciphers electronic transcribed physician-patient encounters via the Internet through A-Life’s data center, which are then appropriately coded for reimbursement purposes. LifeCode also expedites the reimbursement process by automatically suggesting compliant ICD-9 and CPT-4 codes in less than a second. It is the core of A-Life’s operations, expansion and advancement.

For more than a decade, A-Life has garnered a reputation for providing the healthcare industry with proven and reliable coding solutions. As of 2009, A-Life processes in excess of five million transactions monthly, has thousands of users and provides coding services to more than 40,000 physicians nationwide.

A-Life's products and services assist coding operations for healthcare organizations specializing in Radiology, Pathology, Emergency Medicine and Cardiology to name a few.
