Nym
Also known as: Nym Health
Autonomous medical coding engine that codes encounters in seconds and routes them to billing above a 95 percent confidence threshold, returning the rest to coders, with an audit trail of findings and guidelines behind every code. Nym is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified.
Nym's autonomous medical coding engine assigns ICD-10 and CPT codes to patient encounters in seconds across six specialties and service lines, including emergency medicine, radiology, outpatient surgery and outpatient visits, for health systems and physician groups. Its Clinical Language Understanding technology combines machine learning models with rules based clinical ontologies encoding AMA, CMS and WHO guidelines, which Nym's compliance and clinical teams update on each effective date.
The engine runs in the background, routes encounters to billing when coding confidence exceeds 95 percent without human approval of the codes, and returns the rest to the customer's coders. Every coded encounter carries an audit trail of the clinical findings, guideline references and reasoning behind each code, and dashboards report coding performance in real time. Implementation takes three to six months, with launch gated on 95 percent accuracy in a user acceptance audit and ongoing joint accuracy reviews. Nym is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 certified and HIPAA compliant. Pricing is by sales conversation.

Integrations
Integrates with major EHRs to take in encounters and routes coded encounters directly to billing systems.
In practice
Your emergency department coders cannot keep up with volume. Nym codes ED encounters in seconds, sends the ones it is confident about straight to billing and returns the rest to your coders.
A coding backlog holds up claims. Nym runs in the background on every new encounter, cutting the revenue that sits waiting for final billing.
Auditors ask why a code was chosen. Each encounter Nym codes carries the clinical findings and guideline links behind every code.

The engine integrates with major EHRs to take in patient encounters and routes successfully coded encounters directly to the billing system, running in the background of existing workflows. Supported EHRs include Epic, Oracle Health (Cerner) and Meditech, connected through a FHIR based integration designed during discovery.

Clinical Language Understanding combines machine learning with rules based clinical ontologies encoding AMA, CMS and WHO coding guidelines, which Nym's compliance and clinical teams update on each effective date (annual CPT and ICD-10, quarterly NCCI, ongoing HCPCS). Each code links to the guidelines it applied. CLU reads clinical context, negation, timing and subjectivity, so a note saying the patient denies chest pain is not coded as chest pain.

| Human Oversight & Guardrails | Partial |
|
A 95 percent confidence threshold decides which encounters go straight to billing and which return to human coders. Coded encounters reach billing without humans approving the codes, so people review only the encounters that fall below the threshold. After launch, the customer needs no regular staff time for daily production. SourceNym, nym.health/autonomous-medical-coding/nym-engine and /implementationread 2026-10-05 |

| Memory & State Persistence | Not documented |

Each encounter is coded on its own, from its own documentation against maintained guidelines. Nym names no memory for the engine, what it would keep or for how long. SourceNym, nym.health/autonomous-medical-coding/the-technologyread 2026-10-05 |

| Deployment & Data Residency | Not documented |

Implementation takes 3 to 6 months from contract to launch, in five phases, with a project champion, a coding lead and a technical team on the customer's side.

One coding engine covers six specialties and service lines, which are emergency medicine, radiology, outpatient surgery, outpatient visits, inpatient professional services and urgent care.

The engine runs in the background, taking a first pass at patient encounters as they arrive and coding them in seconds without a person starting each one. Nym says the engine assigns those codes with zero human intervention. SourceNym, nym.health and /autonomous-medical-coding/nym-engineread 2026-10-05 |

| Model Flexibility & Routing | Not documented |

Coding runs on Nym's own machine learning models and rules based clinical ontologies (CLU). Nym names no third party model, routing or customer choice. It does not name its model architectures either. SourceNym, nym.health/autonomous-medical-coding/the-technologyread 2026-10-05 |

Launch requires 95 percent or better accuracy on a user acceptance audit of the customer's historical charts, along with a 12 hour turnaround. Nym's auditing team audits a random subset of records the engine coded for critical errors, and Nym and the customer evaluate accuracy against the 95 percent threshold on an ongoing basis.

What is public
No prices, plans or billing basis are published; a demo request is the route. Public commitments are the 95 percent accuracy threshold, 12-hour turnaround at go-live and a 3 to 6 month implementation.
Variable cost rationale
No billing basis or rate is published, so exposure to chart volume cannot be checked from public pages.
