AI-Powered Chrome Plugin for Smarter Medical Coding
How we helped Diagnoss build an innovative Chrome extension that uses AI to help healthcare practitioners quickly and accurately fill in ICD and CPT codes.
Project Overview
Diagnoss partnered with Kwanso to build an innovative Chrome extension that helps healthcare practitioners quickly and accurately fill in medical codes within the AthenaHealth EHR/EMR system. Powered by Artificial Intelligence, the plugin analyzes patient medical records and suggests the correct ICD and CPT codes — reducing manual effort, improving accuracy, and saving valuable time for clinicians.

Project Stats
Key Learnings
Healthcare Integration Requires Deep Understanding
Building solutions for healthcare requires thorough understanding of compliance standards, security requirements, and existing workflow patterns to ensure seamless adoption.
AI Can Transform Healthcare Workflows
AI-powered solutions can significantly improve efficiency and accuracy in healthcare, but they must be designed to enhance rather than replace human expertise and judgment.
User Experience is Critical for Adoption
In healthcare environments, user experience design must prioritize ease of use, minimal disruption to existing workflows, and intuitive interfaces to ensure clinician adoption.
