As part of the EPR transformation, we are looking to recruit a self-motivated, fast learner with demonstrable ability to analyse and accurately abstract clinical information from various data sources.

There is a requirement for high-quality data collection and reporting with the implementation of EPR to accurately reflect clinical activity and outcomes. This will ensure our services are set up to support our patient case mix, enabling us to provide the right care for our patients.

This is a full-time position (37.5 hours) based at Watford General Hospital, with opportunities for hybrid working and flexible hours to support a healthy work-life balance.

Please note - we are unable to obtain a Certificate of Sponsorship (Work Permit) for this role.

Reporting to the Clinical Coding Team Lead, you will be responsible for ensuring accurate, timely, complete, and consistent clinical coding within strict timescales, using ICD-10 and OPCS-4 classifications, adhering to national coding standards and local policies.

You will need to collect, collate, and code clinical information across various specialties, which may involve coding highly sensitive and emotionally distressing patient records.

With a new hospital planned for Watford and updates underway at St Albans City Hospital, this is an exciting time to join us. We are building on our award-winning virtual hospital, re-imagining models of care, and working closely with partners to leverage advances in digital healthcare.

Staff wellbeing and development are priorities, as is innovation in improving clinical care, outcomes, and patient experience.

Our vision is 'Excellent patient care, together', and our values emphasize empowerment, compassion, professionalism, and inclusivity. We support flexible working options to promote work-life balance. For more information, visit www.westhertshospitals.nhs.uk/flexibleworking.
