Solutions
Support across care settings
Nuance Computer-Assisted Physician Documentation (CAPD) solutions offer physicians in-workflow guidance to drive better data outcomes across care settings. Our CAPD solutions apply workflow and knowledge automation, proven clinical content and point‑of‑care advice to capture complete and accurate documentation while improving productivity and satisfaction.
Inpatient CAPD
In-workflow guidance analyzes relevant notes for a comprehensive view of patient acuity and helps identify undocumented and unspecified diagnoses and comorbidities to improve CC/MCC capture.
Outpatient CAPD
In-workflow guidance improves care quality and risk adjustment to identify chronic conditions and drive appropriate reimbursement and RAF scores in outpatient clinics.
Specialty CAPD
In-workflow guidance helps proceduralists, like surgeons and interventional cardiologists, provide key details that support appropriate reimbursement, coding, and quality.
Benefits
Guidance at the point of care
Apply deep expertise and engage physicians with a more efficient workflow. Nuance has created AI‑powered documentation guidance software to capture complete and more accurate documentation at the point of care, helping organizations achieve:
Earlier discovery
Identify undocumented and unspecified diagnoses based on clinical evidence to better capture the true severity and acuity of each patient. Physician documentation guidance initiates a virtual clinical conversation with the physician to add critical details that impact the treatment and expected outcomes.
More time for patients
Engaging physicians at the point of care reduces retrospective queries by up to 40%, drives overall quality improvements, and allows teams to dedicate more time to patient care.
Proven outcomes
Engage physicians and capture documentation to promote better care, more appropriate reimbursements, accurate quality ratings and risk‑adjustments, shorter billing cycles and a more optimized denials management process.
