There’s nothing complex about healthcare, right?It’s just you and your doctor. But behind that verysimple and human encounter lies a beast of complexity. Every aspect of the encounter has tobe documented. And it has to be coded – eachdiagnosis and procedure has a corresponding number – for reimbursement and other purposes.With the use of a new and much more detailed coding standard (ICD-10) soon to be required, 3MHealth Information Systems took aim at the complexity by integrating multiple coding, clinicaldocumentation improvement, and performancemonitoring processes on a single platform usingInterSystems Ensemble.

The resulting product, 3M 360 Encompass System,increases process automation, simplifies the use ofICD-10, and reduces the inefficiencies of multiplecoding and documentation processes and theadded costs of unconnected systems.

“The 3M 360 Encompass System enables substantialproductivity improvements for both inpatient andoutpatient coding – the result of deep integration,advanced natural language processing technology,and greater workflow efficiency,” said Michael Bee,Business Director for 3M 360 Encompass.“Developing on Ensemble allowed us more time toinnovate. With a high-performance integrationengine, we spend less time troubleshooting andmore time on product enhancement.”
