Medical coding specialist is a recognized job entity focused on assigning ICD-10-CM/PCS, CPT/HCPCS, DRG, and HCC codes from EHR documentation. On Rex.zone, work-from-home medical coders support healthcare revenue cycle and AI/ML pipelines by performing clinical data labeling, QA evaluation, RLHF, prompt evaluation, and named entity recognition that improve training data quality and large language model evaluation. Roles span payer and provider coding, audit, and annotation tasks integrated with LLM training workflows, clinical NLP, computer vision document extraction, and content safety labeling for PHI. Explore remote, contract, freelance, and full-time openings, then apply on Rex.zone to join coding and AI teams.
Work-from-home medical coders on Rex.zone assign accurate ICD-10-CM/PCS, CPT/HCPCS, DRG, and HCC codes while contributing to healthcare AI initiatives. You will translate clinical documentation into standardized codes, validate DRGs and risk adjustment, and participate in data labeling, named entity recognition, RLHF for clinical coding assistants, and prompt evaluation to strengthen LLM training pipelines and clinical NLP models.
Perform chart abstraction, E/M leveling, DRG validation, HCC capture, and audit-ready rationales; label entities (diagnoses, procedures, medications, SNOMED CT/UMLS concepts), map documentation to HL7 FHIR resources, classify document types, and assist with PHI de-identification for content safety labeling; execute QA evaluation, write and refine annotation guidelines, review edge cases, and provide coder feedback loops that drive model performance improvement.
CPC, CCS, CRC, RHIT/RHIA or equivalent credentials; strong ICD-10-CM/PCS and CPT/HCPCS proficiency; experience with payer/provider workflows, NCD/LCD policies, and E/M rules; familiarity with EHR systems (Epic, Cerner) and coding tools (3M, Optum); understanding of HIPAA, PHI handling, and audit practices; exposure to data labeling, named entity recognition, RLHF, and large language model evaluation; clear written rationales and annotation guidelines compliance.
NLP for clinical notes, computer vision for scanned records and claims attachments, LLM training pipelines for coding assistance, content safety labeling for PHI/PII, payer risk adjustment analytics, provider revenue cycle integrity, and multi-specialty coding (inpatient, outpatient, pro-fee, anesthesia, radiology, surgical subspecialties).
Remote-first roles across contract, freelance, full-time, part-time, and temp-to-hire; openings for entry-level, mid-level, and senior coders and auditors; opportunities with AI labs, tech startups, health systems, insurers, BPOs, and annotation vendors; projects spanning NLP, computer vision, content safety, and LLM training.
Competitive hourly or per-chart rates depending on specialty, credentials, and geography; performance bonuses tied to accuracy and throughput; benefits for eligible full-time roles may include healthcare, paid time off, and remote work stipends. Compensation varies by employer, country, and project scope listed on Rex.zone.
EHR platforms (Epic, Cerner), coding software (3M, Optum), secure VPNs, ticketing systems (Jira), version control for guidelines, and annotation platforms (Label Studio, Prodigy). Projects may involve HL7/FHIR resources, ICD-10-CM/PCS, CPT/HCPCS, SNOMED CT/UMLS, and LLM-based prompt evaluation workflows.
Follow structured annotation guidelines and coding policies; achieve high inter-rater agreement and training data quality; leverage blind review and audits; provide corrective feedback that leads to model performance improvement; participate in large language model evaluation, prompt testing, and RLHF cycles to improve clinical coding assistants while maintaining annotation guidelines compliance.
Operate under HIPAA, SOC 2, and client security protocols; use approved devices, secure VPNs, and DLP tools; handle PHI/PII with least-privilege access; document rationales for audit trails; adhere to payer policy updates and regulatory changes across specialties and jurisdictions.
Browse remote medical coding jobs on Rex.zone, select projects aligned with your credentials and specialty, submit a profile and coding samples, and complete accuracy assessments for ICD-10-CM/PCS and CPT/HCPCS. Qualified applicants are matched to roles with providers, payers, AI labs, BPOs, and annotation vendors.
Coders assign ICD-10-CM/PCS and CPT/HCPCS codes, validate DRGs and HCCs, and support AI/ML initiatives by performing clinical data labeling, QA evaluation, named entity recognition, RLHF, and prompt evaluation to improve LLM-assisted coding workflows.
Most roles prefer or require CPC, CCS, CRC, RHIT/RHIA, or equivalent credentials. Entry-level projects may accept trainees with strong medical terminology, anatomy, and policy knowledge.
Your accurate coding and annotations become training data. You contribute to training data quality, annotation guidelines compliance, large language model evaluation, and RLHF feedback loops that strengthen clinical coding assistants.
Remote openings include contract, freelance, full-time, part-time, and temp-to-hire. Roles are available for entry-level, mid-level, and senior professionals across payer, provider, and AI projects.
Expect EHR systems (Epic, Cerner), coding tools (3M, Optum), secure VPN, ticketing (Jira), and annotation platforms (Label Studio, Prodigy). Some projects include HL7/FHIR mappings and LLM prompt evaluation.
Rex.zone listings enforce HIPAA-aligned controls, including secure VPN access, device hardening, DLP, audit logs, and least-privilege policies. Always follow client-specific security procedures.
Rates vary by specialty, credentials, and region. Listings on Rex.zone include hourly or per-chart compensation and may offer bonuses for accuracy and throughput, with benefits available in eligible full-time roles.
Yes, many projects are global. Requirements depend on employer location, language proficiency, time zone overlap, and knowledge of local or US coding standards and payer policies.
Employers may provide coding guideline refreshers, project-specific annotation instructions, and QA feedback. Some roles offer test charts and calibration rounds before production work.
