KODE is creating a new category in the medical coding space: the “Uber” of medical coding. The KODE platform has created a unique opportunity to solve a growing healthcare labor problem by bringing “gig” work to existing coders and those who haven’t considered medical coding as a career path before. Koders on the platform take control of their careers while gaining valuable experience and mentorship from coding masters who are already a part of our community. They work when, how, and where they want, earning extra income along the way.

It’s no secret – the model of coding is inherently flawed. Hospitals and providers have been forced to try to solve a variable problem with a fixed solution. With constantly fluctuating volumes, it’s simply impossible for providers to juggle staffing challenges with a limited FTE workforce. We set out to rectify this by doing what no one else has. Check out this short video to learn more about our mission and our culture.
