"Amazing" dedication
Earlier this year, 3M completed installation of 3M™ Codefinder™ Computer-Assisted Edition at Eastern Maine Medical Center (EMMC) in Bangor, ME, and Woman’s Hospital in Baton Rouge, LA. The reaction was overwhelmingly positive.
Mandy Reid, RHIT CPC, coding manager at EMMC, called 3M’s dedication to improving the coding process "amazing." She said, "3M has been supportive and responsive in listening to the needs of today's coders through the development of computer-assisted coding. We are looking forward to improved productivity without sacrificing the much-needed coders' expertise."
Immediate results
During product development, a small controlled study measured the improvement a hospital might see when they install 3M Codefinder Computer-Assisted Edition for inpatient coding. The results are impressive. Within a single afternoon—and with only one hour of training—coders were able to reduce the time spent coding records by nearly 30 percent. The time savings became even greater as the complexity of the medical records increased.
