At 3M, we know you can identify with this year’s HFMA ANI conference theme: “Learn. Reconnect. Mobilize.” Leading a healthcare organization means you must
master, plug into and get moving on all the challenges that come your way each year: regulatory changes, cash flow slowdowns, government stimulus programs, rising costs, and more—and at the same time stay focused on improving patient care.
3M is a big believer in learning from and connecting with our clients—and then putting ideas in motion. We connected with many healthcare leaders as we developed the
3M™ 360 Encompass™ System, a revolutionary new application that connects and automates both coding and documentation improvement—two critical factors related to success under
ICD-10 and performance-based reimbursement.
Our clients also helped us understand how to transform and improve APC revenue cycle performance, and the result is our
3M™ Ambulatory Revenue Management Software (ARMS). 3M ARMS is a comprehensive solution that moves coding edits and charge detail from the back-end of the cycle up to the point of coding to help you submit accurate outpatient claims the first time and also reduce payment denials and rework.
As 3M consultants worked with their clients over the years to review and improve coding and documentation practices, they developed the
3M™ Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) System, an automated tool set for concurrent record review. 3M CDI System displays the coding edits related to select diagnosis and procedure documentation and helps clients achieve accurate, precise coding.
We are also excited about our new 3M™ Outpatient Clinical Documentation Improvement Services, which can help freestanding physician practices, hospital-based physician services, and hospital outpatient facilities achieve accurate, complete and compliant, coding documentation.
October 1, 2014 is less than 18 months away. Luckily, 3M has you covered with
ICD-10 software, education, and supplemental coding resources to help you through the transition. 3M offers access to qualified, credentialed coding resources to help you maintain current workflow and reduce backlogs with on-site or remote services for inpatient and outpatient coding audits interim CDI staffing.
