Abstract

At the University of Porto Hospital (Centro Hospitalar Universitário do Porto [CHUP]), a tool for computerized clinical coding was developed to assist in the codification of hospital discharge. However, for this tool to be useful, it is necessary to have a process to manage the entire coding process. Thus, a platform was developed to help manage the coding of hospital dis-charge episodes. The biggest advantage of the existence of this platform is to better organize the entire coding process in order to improve the quantity and quality of work performed by CHUP's health professionals.
