3M On-demand Methodology Training

The 3M On-demand Methodology Training is designed to help smooth the learning curve between understanding a 3M methodology, its proper use and how to best work with the output. The methodologies define and measure risk adjustment, payment, reporting, population health and quality improvement.

When implementing a methodology, organizations must quickly understand the advantages and the clinical logic at work behind the data. 3M On-demand Methodology Training can build and support that understanding and is like having a 3M consultant on site to help guide your education needs and provide easy access to training materials and reference content.

3M On-demand Methodology Training can help your organization:
 

• Understand 3M methodology fundamentals and how risk adjustment is required to evaluate performance
• Interpret and use reports that support your organization’s programs and goals
• Deliver high quality, standardized training content through a seamless learning experience

Your organization can benefit from 3M’s industry-recognized expertise, with more than 30 years of experience developing classification, grouping and reimbursement calculation systems for inpatient, outpatient and professional settings. 3M On-demand Methodology Training reflects and embodies that experience and expertise.

Online, self-paced learning offers these advantages:
