We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic, motivated team player to join our existing A&E Coding Team. This post is 6 month fixed term to cover maternity leave and is based at Northumbria Healthcare, Cobalt Business Park, Newcastle Upon Tyne.
Working to strict deadlines, we provide an A&E coding service to our busy departments across the entire Trust, including Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, Wansbeck General Hospital, North Tyneside General Hospital, Hexham General Hospital, Alnwick Infirmary, Berwick Infirmary and Haltwhistle War Memorial Hospital.
The post-holder will be responsible for abstracting and analysing clinical information from a variety of electronic systems and translating it accurately into diagnostic codes, investigations and treatments. A key element of this role involves entering the patient data accurately and timely onto the Trust’s ECS system; dealing with day to day enquiries and liaising with clinical and administration staff of various levels.
The successful candidate will be educated to GCSE standard, have good communication skills, keyboard skills, ability to prioritise workload, and work to tight deadlines. Experience of A & E; and systems such as Genysis, PAS, ICE, Nerve Centre, Clinical Noting and Mediviewer would be beneficial. Knowledge of Anatomy and Physiology as well as Medical Terminology would also be advantageous.
Full support and continuous training will be given as required.
We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, covering one of the largest geographical areas of any NHS trust in the country. Leading in innovation and quality – opening a state-of-the-art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England.
