Imagine making a real difference every day – for our patients, for our medical staff and for the entire hospital. As a Medical Coder, you are an essential part of this success.
Why are you needed here? Every correctly coded treatment billing not only secures our economic efficiency but also guarantees fair processes and transparent billing for all. Your expertise translates complex medical documents into clear DRG codes – making real quality visible. In our team, we live an open exchange and you benefit from regular feedback sessions and exciting professional discussions.
This is who we are
Your tasks
- First-hand responsibility: You manage the coding of acute inpatient cases and ensure that no service is "lost", both in concurrent coding (coding cases during the stay) and final coding
- Team spirit that supports: Collegial collaboration within the team, as well as with doctors and nursing staff – here, everyone meets on equal footing
- Learning & growth: We support your further education and training (Federal Specialist Certificate or specialisations) with time and budget
- Flexibility that suits you: Flexible working hours, part-time options and home office share, so that job and life harmonise perfectly
- More than a job: Joint events, long-service gifts
Your profile
- Heart & mind: You bring several years of coding experience and possibly already have the Federal Specialist Certificate
- Curiosity & accuracy: You love capturing medical details precisely and continuously improving processes
- Communication professional: You explain complex contexts clearly and inspire your counterpart with well-documented treatment cases
- Team player: You appreciate a respectful togetherness and look forward to growing together with us
