3M™ CodeComplete™ Services

Is your organization experiencing a shortage of certified coders? Do you ever have short-term staffing challenges due to illnesses, vacations or unplanned absences? Is your backlog out of control? Many organizations are having difficulty filling the demand for certified coders. These staffing shortages can result in coding delays and inaccuracies that cost organizations millions of dollars.

3M CodeComplete Services is a full-service, outsourced solution for the coding challenges that health care organizations face. 3M CodeComplete offers a range of coding workflow and multiple data access options to match the needs of your organization. This flexible service allows you to build your business without adding onsite staffing or handling the hassles of hiring, training and managing coders. 3M CodeComplete clients also have the option of including additional services such as PQRS documentation, auditing, custom reports, and coding comparisons by physician, site or specialty.

Clients can choose to have our certified coders work within their coding systems, use the 3M™ CodeAssist™ System or even process scanned records. Our goal is to find a solution that fits your timing and volume needs. 3M CodeComplete per-report pricing can help provide value and drive ROI.

Leverage 3M’s proprietary natural language processing (NLP) technology to provide outpatient coding and clinical documentation review. Data entry can be automated with outbound interfaces to most billing systems, helping eliminate paper-based workflows and associated errors.

With 3M CodeAssist, the 3M CodeComplete team adheres to a coding-compliant workflow. 3M NLP technology in 3M CodeAssist supports physician documentation review and medical code assignment. NLP can be more consistent in its identification of medical facts than human coders and also help medical coders provide more consistent coding results.
