This all-in-one speech and artificial intelligence (AI)-powered solution enables physicians of any medical specialty to conversationally create, review, edit and sign clinical notes directly in your electronic health record (EHR). This solution leverages 3M natural language understanding (NLU) technology for contextual understanding of the patient’s narrative and helps to improve documentation accuracy from the first word. 

With built-in computer-assisted physician documentation (CAPD) functionality, the technology continuously analyzes and monitors the clinical narrative. In real time, it nudges you for additional information or clarification and suggests specific things you can do to improve the quality of care and clinical documentation.

Integrated with more than 250 EHRs

Cloud-based 3M™ M*Modal Fluency Direct seamlessly works with more than 250 EHRs, including all major platforms, to achieve faster EHR adoption, higher quality documentation and lower transcription costs. Advanced voice commands facilitate EHR navigation and single sign-on capabilities further boost physician productivity.
