It’s hard to hire and keep good HIM professionals.
It’s hard to add new clients or expand your existing book of business when you can’t grow your Health Information Management team.
Higher labor costs are reducing margins.
With the tight labor market and continually rising wages, your profit margins are under increasing pressure.
Your team’s productivity has a limit.
You have a great team, but they will eventually hit their maximum charts per hour. Because quality coding takes time, and there are only so many working hours in a day.

Common questions.
Can you handle modifiers and other special E&M circumstances?
Yes, Butter can handle modifiers and special circumstances such as preventative visits, prolonged services, split / shared visits, incident-to, global surgical package, multiple E&Ms on the same day, and telehealth.
What if my company has its own coding guidelines?
When clients have coding policies or guidelines that differ from Butter's standard approach, Butter will create client-specific settings that are only available for that client. We will not share your policies or guidelines with other clients.
How does Butter’s AI work?
Butter uses large language models to review the medical record and then sends that information to Butter’s proprietary coding system, which assigns the correct E&M category and level based on either MDM or time, as applicable.
How is Butter better than currently available coding tools like CAC or NLP?
CAC tools are glorified dictionaries. You decide what to look up, then decide what information is relevant. NLP tools are better but far from sufficient. They are like chatbots before ChatGPT. They kind of worked, but not well. Butter uses Generative AI to answer questions that would have been out of reach for "AI" technologies like NLP.
How does Butter protect my clients’ sensitive, privacy-protected medical records?
Butter uses HIPAA compliant LLMs and cloud storage technology to ensure your clients’ protected health information is not shared with unauthorized entities.

Yes, your organization will need to sign a BAA with Butter. The sign up process includes a BAA to sign online.
