Dublin, May 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "U.S. Medical Coding Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Classification System (ICD, CPT, HCPCS), by Component (In-house, Outsourced) and Segment Forecasts, 2021-2028" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The U.S. medical coding market size is expected to reach USD 31.4 billion by 2028 registering a CAGR of 8.3% during the forecast period.
Frequent revisions in the medical codes is one of the major parameter driving the market growth. Moreover, new codes were developed for coding and billing of the COVID-19 disease. For instance, new ICD codes were launched by the World Health Organization, such as U07.1, B34.2, and B97.29. Moreover, CPT published new codes for COVID-19 testing. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) also developed new codes for lab testing. This, in turn, is estimated to drive market growth over the coming years.
There is a significant rise in healthcare costs. According to the Society of Actuaries, cumulative change in healthcare spending per person was 18.4% between 2014 and 2018 but the cumulative change in utilization was only 3.1% during the same period in the U.S. The cumulative growth in average price was 15.0% between 2014 and 2018.
Healthcare organizations face tremendous pressure to reduce healthcare costs without compromising healthcare efficiency. Medical coding aids in reducing these costs while offering the right treatments. This, in turn, is estimated to support the market growth.
