ST.
PAUL, Minn., Sept. 29,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- 3M
Health Care Business Group's Health Information Systems (HIS)
division today announced its 3M™ M*Modal Fluency Direct solution
and medical necessity solutions will be available in Epic's new
Garden Plot. The new software is available to independent medical
groups with 40 or more providers through a hosted and supported
Software as a Service (SaaS) mode. About half of patient care
physicians in the U.S. work in private practices, according to the
American Medical Association's 2020 Physician Practice Benchmark
Survey.
"We are thrilled to be part of Epic's new Garden Plot offering,"
said Garri Garrison, 3M HIS president. "We have been working with
Epic since 1982 and we look forward to expanding together to
directly serve the ambulatory market. This work creates a pathway
to deliver 3M content and technology
to end users via the electronic health record."
Epic announced Garden Plot in March as an option for independent
providers who don't have access to Epic's software through health
systems that can extend their Epic instances to nearby providers
via Community Connect.
"Making 3M's solutions available in Garden Plot allows providers
to care for their patients in dynamic ways, using their voice to
compose a note or to interact with Epic," said JP Heres, vice
president of Garden Plot. "For many providers, this is the first
time they've had access to this technology and that is
exciting."
