Keep coding context attached to the ICD-10 codes you review.
Save payer reminders, MEAT follow-ups (monitor, evaluate, assess/address, treat), audit findings, and code-specific tips for deidentified coding workflows. Draft quick coder notes, let Buddy suggest cleaner structure, then keep the final wording under human review.
