CDS Coder
Medical Coding in Clinical Trials
CDS Coder equips your studies with fast, accurate medical coding for verbatim terms from CDS, EDC, and external sources. Using Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing, CDS Coder automatically suggests the best dictionary matches.
Equip your clinical trial with fast and accurate medical coding.
Key Features
Coding Suggestions Algorithm
Reduce the time and effort spent on coding while improving accuracy. Using Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning, CDS Coder displays suggestions for tasks awaiting coding.
Consolidated Query Management
Coding queries raised by your coding specialists in CDS Coder are available in CDS EDC to the site personnel. This provides immediate communication between your sites and coding specialists, compressing the time required to resolve any discrepancies.
Synonym List
Accelerate your coding by changing frequently used terms to synonyms. The medical coder will ask the clients if they want their coding decision to be recorded. If the client says yes, the program will automatically code using the synonym list provided.
External Verbatim Term Management
Make consistent coding decisions across all your studies and data sources. Terms outside of CDS EDC can be imported into, coded within, and extracted from CDS Coder so that your clinical programs have uniform coding decisions across all trials
Dictionary Maintenance and Updating
Keep your dictionaries and studies up-to-date. CDS Coder will update your dictionary with the newest version available. Updating of studies to the latest dictionary version is completed with a self-service module designed to be used by your coding specialists.

Benefits
Why Choose CDS Coder?
Accurate Coding
Achieve accurate medical coding with CDS Coder. Automatically find the closest matching dictionary term with its Coding Suggestions algorithm that uses Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. The algorithm learns ‘on the job’ to quantify the impact of the suggested matches and improve coding accuracy.
Efficient Coding
Efficiently code your EDC data with CDS Coder. CDS Coder is tightly connected with CDS EDC, delivering an automated medical coding workflow. Verbatim terms in CDS EDC are flagged as coding tasks in Coder. Queries raised in Coder are displayed against the relevant verbatim in CDS EDC, and answers are returned to Coder. Once a term is coded in Coder, the coding decision is passed back to CDS EDC.
Up-to-Date Dictionaries
Eliminate your dictionary maintenance tasks and ensure your studies always have access to the latest dictionaries.
With CDS Coder, dictionary maintenance is managed by ClinicaldataS, with updates made within ten business days of the release of new dictionary versions from MedDRA, WHODrug, and JDrug.
