From clinical note to billable codes

Pick a synthetic MTSamples-style note. The assistant proposes CPT and ICD-10 codes with the exact note span that justifies each one, surfaces NCCI and documentation flags, and asks you to accept, reject, or edit before pushing back to a (simulated) EHR.

Demo runs on a hardcoded mapping — no LLM call, no PHI. The production path (Bedrock / Azure OpenAI under BAA) is described on the architecture page.
