Pittsburgh and Wayne, Pa., September 22, 2010 — At the 82nd AHIMA Convention and Exhibit, Precyse Solutions, a provider of health information management (HIM) services and technologies, and M*Modal, a provider of advanced speech-understanding technology and on-demand conversational documentation, announced their partnership to deliver a robust ICD-10-ready Computer Assisted Coding (CAC) engine in the release of PrecyseCode, the most advanced health information management platform available today.
To best optimize coding operations and accelerate ICD-10 transition for hospitals and health systems nationwide, PrecyseCode capabilities have been built from the ground up to be ICD-10 compatible. As opposed to updating or reengineering a CAC solution to meet ICD-10 requirements, PrecyseCode has been specifically designed and engineered to be ICD-10 compatible. On the road to meaningful use of the electronic health record (EHR), the HIM industry is challenged with integrating EHRs into the coding process. The CAC engine inherent in PrecyseCode now provides a bridge between EHR documentation, the transcription system and the healthcare provider’s financial systems.
For the past five years, Precyse has partnered with M*Modal and integrated M*Modal’s sophisticated Speech Understanding technology seamlessly into the Precyse dictation and transcription work-flow platform, transforming speech into meaningful and usable clinical information. M*Modal’s industry leading conversational documentation services (CDS) enables Precyse to deliver both extremely accurate and complete draft documents from speech, as well as coded and indexed discrete data in a machine-readable format, with immediate turnaround time.
