Abstract:
Progress of the DRGs payment reform is raising higher demands on coders'competence at county-level hospitals. These coders at present are mostly transferred from nurses or medical technicians, who tend to be older in age and lower in education and academic title. To improve their competence, it is imperative to promote coders cultivation in terms of regular career needs, self-determination theory and performance management. Coder ranks deserve attention to build professional and outstanding coders.
