The 3M document
management advantage
3M Patient Financial Services (PFS)
Document Management Software is
a cost-eective document capture
and storage solution that allows you
to create electronic versions of
external patient accounting records
and store them in one location for
easy access and retrieval.
The 3M software provides a
user-congured, integrated view of
key PFS and HIM documentation,
including dictation, registration and
order entry system data.
Documents are immediately
available to view after scanning,
which boosts eciency while
greatly reducing operational costs
and challenges associated with
manual document storage.
Paper, paper everywhere
Many healthcare facilities continue to document patient care using paper
forms and charts, which can cause delays, errors and omissions in the ow
of information to the PFS sta responsible for billing and reimbursement. In
a paper environment, bottlenecks and gaps occur in HIM and PFS processes,
errors are hard to track, and accountability is dicult to enforce. HIPAA
compliance is also challenging to maintain without electronic safeguards for
security and privacy.
Streamline your patient nancial services
3M PFS Document Management Software turns paper-based bottlenecks into
streamlined electronic workows through scanning—either at the point of
service or retroactively when the chart is completed or during other processes.
Scanned images provide immediate access to distinct, legible patient
accounting documents from a central location, which can help improve revenue
cycle turnaround by quickly billing secondary payers and providing a faster
response to payer requests for supporting documentation.
Take control of your document management process
By reducing the time spent and the cost of managing paper documentation,
3M PFS Document Management Software can generate signicant savings.
The software provides a exible and versatile solution to accommodate a
department’s workow and existing forms, while also integrating with electronic
health records (EHRs) and other health information systems for a comprehensive
and collaborative approach to document management.
With 3M PFS Document Management Software, you can create and edit
documents electronically, access and view medical charts, fax and e-mail
documents from within the application and set preferences for sites and users,
including personal lists.
