Evaluation standards for clinical coder training.

This paper reports on an evaluation of clinical coder training programs, recently carried out in Ireland. In building an evaluation framework, the literature was reviewed to identify best practice standards, current practice, and professional opinion against which a sound judgment could be made. The literature was variable but nevertheless useful for the identification of evaluation standards. These standards are reproduced here in order to add to the literature. We also discuss the areas that would benefit from further research, thus contributing to the discourse on best practice in evaluating clinical coder training programs.
