3M™ 360 Encompass™ Computer-Assisted Coding (CAC)
Confidence for your coders. Accuracy for your hospital.
Coding automation where it matters most
Thousands of hospitals across the U.S. trust 3M technology to automate coding workflows powered by expert-guided artificial intelligence (AI) that helps coders save time and hospitals reduce costs. As part of the 3M™ 360 Encompass™ System platform, the computer-assisted coding (CAC) facility module seamlessly integrates with professional services coding, clinical documentation integrity (CDI), real time clinical intelligence reporting, auditing tools and more.
With more than 150 clinical and coding content experts on staff, 3M delivers coding consistency, clarity, guidance and up-to-date coding content. We keep track of the latest regulatory updates so health care organizations can stay compliant while focusing on quality care.
3M 360 Encompass CAC effectively frees coders from non-coding tasks like collecting, organizing and analyzing patient documentation. Codes are auto-suggested based on the relevant patient documentation, providing comprehensive tools to review, accept and complete a coding session. Transparency within the system allows coders to see the evidence that backs up the AI and make adjustments within the code path, if appropriate.

Brittney Luze � How autonomous coding is changing the coding playing field � Described Video (DESCRIBED VIDEO) Text appears on screen that reads: How autonomous coding is changing the coding playing field (BRITTNEY LUZE) In our system, we have all of these pieces of the puzzle. So, we have one piece within our clinic side, we have one in the EMR and then we have some within our coding as well. (DESCRIBED VIDEO) Brittney Luze, who is seated in beautiful outdoor courtyard, begins speaking and title text appears on screen over video: Brittney Luze Director of coding services Avera Health Sioux City, SD (BRITTNEY LUZE) So, it�s really putting all of those pieces together that already exist and putting that puzzle together and billing it direct. So, with no human intervention, not having to touch the account. Why do we need autonomous coding? We need autonomous coding because we�re constantly being asked to do more with less. We�re not going to get any more FTEs. We�re not going to get any more coders. So, even to lessen the burden on the coders, we need some automation with those easier accounts that we feel don�t need that human intervention.
