Missouri health system taps M*Modal for transcription, ICD-10 tech

M*Modal, a developer of clinical documentation, computer-assisted coding (CAC) and speech understanding technologies, will provide its M*Modal Fluency for Coding workflow platform to Mercy Health System. This cloud-based application delivers workflow and CAC services, as well as ICD-10 support.

The new agreement enables M*Modal to deliver Fluency for Coding across Mercy's network of 26 hospitals and clinics. Based in Chesterfield, Mo., Mercy serves hundreds of communities across the Midwest with 4,600 patient beds.

M*Modal Fluency for Coding is a web-based coding application and workflow platform that is ICD-10 compliant, according to the Franklin, Tenn.-based company. The application consolidates critical patient information in the cloud through features such as review aids, alerts on incomplete documentation and case prioritization.
