Change is power.
Five ways 3M is empowering professional fee coding
The price of doing the
same old thing is far higher
than the price of change.
One of the biggest challenges any organization faces is change. And the truth about change is that
it’s hard because the status quo usually seems good enough.
Professional fee coding is no different. To improve efficiency for your organization, transformation
requires empowerment on all levels: coders, physicians and senior leadership.
To help you avoid the common pitfalls, like getting stuck using paper forms and manual processes,
3M offers solutions that can empower your teams to make lasting organizational improvements.
Flexibility.
Empower your current systems with flexibility.
3M understands there are multiple electronic health records (EHRs) in
use today and that healthcare organizations often rely on diverse billing
systems. To fit flexibly into such an environment, 3M’s powerful professional
coding solutions can receive professional data from most EHR systems,
assist the professional coding workflow and then send final codes back to a
professional billing system—all in a synchronized manner.
3M has technology solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI) that fit the
needs of all organization sizes and settings.
“ Nothing touches [3M’s] product as far as efficiency
and usability. [The 3M team is] also very flexible and
willing to work with you as a client to fine tune the
process to work for you.”
– Regan Tyler, director, Revenue Integrity,
AdventHealth, Altamonte Springs, Florida

Compliance.
Empower your organization with accuracy.
The 3M professional fee coding solutions feature alerts that help coders
proactively address and comply with professional coding and billing rules.
Built-in queries create open lines of communication between clinicians
and coders.
In addition, evaluation and management (E/M) coding is appropriately
tied to the documentation in a demonstrable way, resulting in more
consistent and accurate E/M level assignment.

Productivity.
Empower your coders with soaring productivity.
Coders who use 3M may see their productivity increase up to 70 percent.
Thanks to 3M’s revolutionary professional coding workflow, coding
teams can now simplify their efforts, reduce redundant work and unify
their reporting.
“ The disparate work stream
of hospital coding versus
professional coding was
consuming two times the
resources … [and] the [3M]
technology oered us the
opportunity to partner and to
elevate all of [the coders’] skills.”

increased productivity

“ The single-path coding platform
allows us to code both CPT®
and diagnosis codes for facility
and the professional sides.
We can also clear edits in the
system. For us, it’s really great,
because prior to going live
with single path, I could not
see professional CPT codes.”
Confidence.
Empower your coders with confidence.
With 3M, professional fee coders can rely on a coder-centric workflow
that gathers all relevant information from the entire encounter to drive
clean, accurate and compliant ICD-10 and CPT® coding. This approach,
coupled with up-to-date clinical and regulatory updates, sophisticated
alerts and query functionality, can help coders make accurate and
compliant coding and billing decisions. The result? Confident coders.

Efficiency.
Empower with automation.
For organizations where clinicians are doing most of the coding,
3M provides direct-to-bill functionality that allows for user-defined
rules to automatically review and send appropriate claims directly to
the billing system without additional clinician or coder intervention.
This feature means you have a clean, compliant bill that significantly
lowers your risk for denials and rework.
