3M™ M*Modal Fluency Direct

Asset Main Image.

Enables physicians of any medical specialty to conversationally create, review, edit and sign clinical notes directly in your electronic health record (EHR). This solution leverages Solventum natural language understanding (NLU) technology for contextual understanding of the patient’s narrative and helps to improve documentation accuracy from the first word. 3M™ M*Modal Fluency Direct delivers an exceptional clinical documentation experience to physicians, leading to higher physician adoption of technology.

With built-in computer-assisted physician documentation (CAPD) functionality, the technology continuously analyzes and monitors the clinical narrative. In real time, it nudges you for additional information or clarification and suggests specific things you can do to improve the quality of care and clinical documentation.

“My co-workers are spending less time in the EHR, where they are no longer tied to the chart. Now they spend more time researching patient charts before an appointment, more time with the patient, more time with their families or with a hobby.”
