Introduction Medical coding errors may be caused by the time-consuming process of examining patient records and presenting their data as a series of codes. Nevertheless, the responsibility for the mistakes made lies with coders since these procedures are carried out by personnel who have undergone special training. The case of hospital coding problems and the losses caused by their consequences is an example of how the management of this procedure can affect the financial aspects of work. At the same time, while taking into account the reports of the subordinates responsible for coding medical data, one can conclude that changing the sequence of variables in code structures is unjustified. The key reasons lie not only in possible claims and fines from the supervisory authorities but also in even greater losses due to the inconsistency with the existing principles of remuneration and compensation from insurance services. Therefore, to avoid financial issues and legal claims, changes in the encoding are not permissible, despite the apparent benefits of such a procedure. Major Constraints Based on the existing rules governing medical coding, any intervention is an accountable practice due to the possible implications for a number of financial aspects of the work. According to the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA), one of the principles is the refusal “to participate in the development of coding and coding-related technology that is not designed in accordance with requirements” (Bryant). This means that unauthorized revisions are prohibited in the existing coding systems since this is contrary to the norms of monitoring and managing health information. Regarding justified reasons, one can mention engagement with private companies and national health insurance programs, for instance, Medicare, which make related payments based on the current codes. Any irregularities are fraught with delays or rejection of reimbursement due to the strict attachment of the existing coding to specific payment algorithms ( Consequences of Medical Coding ). As a result, both the hospital and patients may experience losses due to such incorrect encoding management work. Revenue cycle operations, in turn, depend on which coding standard is currently being used. The management of clinics and other medical institutions may ask to revise the existing coding procedure. However, according to LaPointe, due to a tense workflow and a wide patient demand, for instance, in conditions of the current pandemic, the analysis and discussion of this proposal can take a long time. The AHIMA argues that one of the key principles of work in this area is to support those codes that comply with the existing documentation standards and requirements (Bryant). The violation of this principle is a direct reason for insurance services to file claims. Moreover, incorrect coding is often associated with medical abuse due to false patient information that medical providers register. In this regard, such activity can be associated with a deliberate decision to avoid losses and gain monetary gain, which, in turn, is a reason for litigation ( Consequences of Medical Coding ). Therefore, financial and legal constraints are crucial factors explaining the unreasonableness of changing the
