Automate medical coding with Step Functions and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore | AWS Architecture Blog

With AI agents, you can automate medical coding while keeping the workflow deterministic, auditable, and subject to human approval.
The key is division of labor: the workflow engine owns sequencing and approval gates, while agents reason within individual, bounded steps.
Handing the entire workflow to an agent would make the runtime path a property of the model’s reasoning, which is difficult to review and replay.
