BayScribe Uses Technology to Address Clinical Documentation and Coding Weaknesses in Preparation for ICD-10

Company releases industry’s first fully-integrated CAC and CDI solution at ACDIS.

Nashville, TN— May 21, 2013. BayScribe, a leading clinical documentation technology company, today announced a new cloud-based offering aimed at eliminating bottlenecks in the documentation and coding process. The new application, v6 CACDIS, creates structured data from unstructured text, thereby facilitating fluid communication between clinical documentation improvement specialists (CDIS), medical record coders and physicians. The announcement was made by Steve Bonney, Vice President, Business Development and Strategy, BayScribe, at the opening of the 6th Annual ACDIS National Conference in Nashville.

“Many feel ICD-10 is not a coding issue—it is a clinical documentation issue and we agree,” stated Bonney. “Hospitals struggle with existing bottlenecks in clinical documentation improvement (CDI), coding and physician queries, and these challenges are further exacerbated by ICD-10. They are looking for ways to affordably streamline every facet of the process, without disrupting physicians any further,” he adds.
