Penny Jefferson, MSN | Amy Jo Combs, RHIT | Angela Comfort, DBA | Cheryl Ericson, RN | Timothy Powell, CPA Season 14 Episode 656

During the next live edition of the popular Talk Ten Tuesday Internet broadcast, you’ll learn how artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomous coding are quickly reshaping the day-to-day work of coders.

From inpatient DRG suggestions to outpatient evaluation and management (E&M) automation, these tools speed up workflows, reduce errors, and help prevent costly denials, according to Penny Jefferson, the special guest for the Internet program, produced by ICD10monitor.

You’ll also learn the human side of automation—how coders remain essential for complex decision making, quality assurance, and accurate clinical representation.

The popular weekly Internet broadcast will also feature these additional instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:

• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Director of CDI for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.

• The Coding Report: Amy Jo Combs, with First Class Solutions, will substitute for Christine Geiger to report on the latest coding news.
