Why do you think medical procedures and patient diagnoses must be translated into codes before transmission

Why do you think medical procedures and patient diagnoses must be translated into codes before transmission to an insurance carrier? What problems may insurance carriers experience if documentation from a patient’s progress note was transmitted to insurance carriers without being properly coded? What are the different methods of medical coding discussed in the textbook and how are these used?

I do not understand this question. Would it be possible for you to elaborate? Thank you.
