  • Experience with managing large-scale data labelling and acquisition, through tools such as through Amazon Turk or DeepDive

What the job involves

  • Building performant and expressive interfaces to the data
  • Creating infrastructure to help us not only scale up data ingest, but large-scale cloud-based machine learning

Our take

Medical coding is a process in the healthcare industry that greatly improves how teams understand and treat different health issues, with human medical coders typically handling the data analysis process. However, humans are greatly limited in how much data they can process even when aided by technology, and this shows room for an AI application within the medical coding landscape.

Fathom Health provides an AI-driven medical coding automation platform, allowing businesses to automate coding processes to maximize speed and accuracy whilst reducing staffing costs. The platform also integrates with human-based coding teams, featuring a real-time audit automation tool, progress tracker, and security suite.

While medical coding platforms are used in most healthcare facilities, Fathom Health has been wise to apply AI-driven automation to the tools that would normally be featured, greatly optimizing workflows for medical coding teams. Through this approach, the company aims to help businesses reduce audit speeds, optimize manual workflows, and reduce staffing costs with end-to-end medical coding AI.
