Extending its collaboration with Epic, M*Modal leverages its broad experience and decisive market leadership in real-time Computer-Assisted Physician Documentation (CAPD) to further support the next-generation EHR workflow
FRANKLIN, TN--(Marketwired - June 14, 2017) - M*Modal, a leading provider of clinical documentation and Speech Understanding™ solutions, announced that its artificial intelligence (AI) powered portfolio of solutions is further enhanced to also support the Epic NoteReader CDI (Clinical Documentation Improvement) module. Along with the embedded M*Modal Computer-Assisted Physician Documentation (CAPD) technology, Epic NoteReader CDI also utilizes the M*Modal CAPD infrastructure and rigorous reporting capabilities to deliver automated physician feedback.
The M*Modal CAPD technology continuously analyzes the documentation and applies machine learning and clinical reasoning across the entire patient record to deliver high-value insights and suggest improvements in quality and compliance as the note is being created. Uniquely, M*Modal CAPD technology extends significantly beyond CDI feedback focused on better capturing Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCCs), Risk-Adjusted Quality Scores, etc.
This extends M*Modal's collaboration with Epic on the company's cloud-based speech recognition and natural language understanding technologies. Already utilized by several joint clients, these advanced workflows enable the M*Modal technology platform to analyze clinical notes and deliver real-time physician feedback on gaps and variance in problem, medication and allergy lists.
"Building on top of Epic's platform, M*Modal's innovative speech and AI tools give physicians great options for capturing narrative and structured data," said Carl Dvorak, President of Epic.
Leveraging Extensive Experience with CAPD
The work between the two companies to embed CAPD technology in the EHR benefits considerably from M*Modal's robust experience with CAPD, which is an integral functionality of its 2017 #1 Best in KLAS, Speech Recognition: Front-End EMR, M*Modal Fluency Direct®. First-to-market, M*Modal CAPD has been in production use since 2014 and is now broadly deployed across 200 healthcare facilities and is being used by over 10,000 physicians daily. This includes more than 65 healthcare facilities that are using M*Modal CAPD while documenting care in their Epic EHR every day.
"Our collaboration is focused on bringing smarter physician assistive technology to market and we are very pleased with the broad success of our joint clients and their continued willingness to innovate with us," said Michael Finke, President of M*Modal.
