About Clinical Capture
Clinical Capture is a billing and coding assistant built by a surgeon, for physicians. Paste an operative or clinic note and it returns the most accurate ICD-10 diagnoses and the highest-value CPT codes — ranked by work RVU, with the right modifiers — alongside concrete, copy-and-paste documentation suggestions to help you capture the work you actually performed.
The goal is simple: make correct, compliant coding fast, and help surgeons stop leaving legitimate reimbursement on the table to undercoding. Every work-RVU value is drawn from the official CMS Physician Fee Schedule, and the tool is deliberately conservative — it never suggests codes the documentation doesn't support.
About the Founder
Jeffrey Bortman, M.D. is an orthopedic surgery resident at Boston University, where he serves as Academic Chief Resident under Dr. Paul Tornetta III, and an incoming Sports Medicine Surgery Fellow at Duke. He earned his M.D. from New York Medical College and his B.A. in Biology, magna cum laude, from Tufts University.
He has spent his career at the intersection of medicine and technology. He co-founded ER Maps, a free emergency-care locator app spanning a database of more than 5,000 U.S. hospitals, and Call Button, a platform reimagining the hospital call bell to improve patient autonomy and nursing workflow. His research spans 25+ peer-reviewed publications in orthopedic surgery, medical simulation, and 3D-printed surgical planning.
Clinical Capture grew out of that same instinct — building practical tools that solve real problems clinicians face every day. Accurate coding shouldn't require a billing degree, and documentation shouldn't be where good surgical work gets lost.
Privacy & Security
Clinical Capture is built privacy-first. Operative notes are processed transiently to generate codes and are never stored — only anonymous usage metadata is retained. Accounts are protected with optional two-factor authentication, login safeguards, and audit logging. During the current beta we ask that notes be de-identified (no patient name, MRN, or date of birth); formal Business Associate Agreements are being established to support identifiable use.
