Bringing the complex task of learning Clinical Coding or Digital Health into the modern age
eHRol (air ol) is a patented education system designed to use cloud based learning techniques offering functionality not available anywhere else including:
- over 6,000 real health records deidentified and converted into and EHR format ready for digital health or clinical coder training
- Answers that have been quality assured including clinical coding based on different versions of ICD-10 with
- automated feedback that has been checked by multiple tutors from different coding backgrounds to reduce conflicting guidance to students
- automated marking that can be modified by the tutor when needed
- a system of communication with individual students where they can ask questions directly to the tutor, or share in a class chat.
- localization options to automatically select answers based on the location of the course organisation settings
- LMS features including
- learner guide management and presentation to students
- practice and assessment options
- large question pool available or organisations may add their own questions to use
- PAS simulator which can be used to teach, practice and assess skills
- EHR simulation used for vendor independent digital health training
- student progress monitoring
- upload your Scorm files to this more advanced system
- complex question types, including patient administration system simulation, voice recording, system use, document loading, and other questions such as fill in the blanks, multiple choice and multiple selection, numeric answers, and essay answers – most of which have the capacity for automation of marking.
- extensive reporting and downloads
Designed for
- students (including clinical coders) wanting to stay or bring themselves up to date without doing a course (Individual license without an instructor),
- Healthcare organisations or Insurers for staff development and mentoring – keep your coders up to date (Basic and Pro Licenses)
- Educators to minimize course maintenance, improve consistency of training outcomes, access to data for coding research (Educational License)
Available in different versions of ICD.

eHRol – Optimize your clinical coder training
Automated Education
eHRol is a ground-breaking learning management system with thousands of health records that have been built from real patient records (with artificial identification details). Each record has clinical coding answers (correct & incorrect answer details) with feedback and automated consistent marking. This brings quality and efficiencies to your coder training by:
- the consistent representation of the scope and level of skill of those using the system
- reducing the workload on teaching staff (reduce marking time by 70%)
- allowing educators to use with a cohort for those learning coding, OR can be for individuals that are self directed and updating or extending their skills.
- maintaining consistent answers using collaborative resources (reduce course material maintenance time)
The Common Problem
Coding is complex and training coders is time consuming and expensive. Industry does not have a consistent measure of coders skill and new coders continue to need training and support after their courses are done. Educators find maintaining clinical coding course materials expensive.
There is no shared agreement on the method of assessing competency in clinical coding. What makes an answer correct or incorrect? Are there situations where an answer which is has some missing or incorrect entries would still be considered acceptable?
Our Objective
Testimonials
“Successful clinical coders require access to ‘live’ medical records to practice on. This tool is about getting students work-ready by providing tools that equip them with actual practical experience”
Scott Grentell, Manager Clinical Coding Services, Western Health“The development of accurate clinical coding skills lies heavily in the ability to abstract relevant information from clinical records. eHRoL has been a breakthrough in its ability to provide real medical records as test scenarios for our students“
Ronney Kassem, Deputy Clinical Coding Manager, Synapse Medical“I would describe eHRol as an educator assisted tool. It replaces a major part of the process of marking that educators have to spend a considerable amount of time on in order to check trainee coders’ records and provide feedback. With this tool, coders can practice in their own time and educators can easily monitor their progress.”
Darren Freestone, Consultant, Vic Uni Polytechnic, HealthPRO Learning“This resource is an effective training tool for future clinical coders to assist in the development of a sustainable and skilled workforce”
Annette de Jager, Accredited & Workforce Training RTO Manager, Western HealthAfter using eHRol’s approach, it is a real and reliable assessment of clinical coding. By providing a real medical records environment it shifts assessment to be more practical, and a professional activity.
