SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fathom, the leader in autonomous medical coding, announced today that its technology is available in Epic's Toolbox program within the Fully Autonomous Coding category, as of Aug. 16.
Toolbox is a collection of products in Epic's Showroom that leverage established integration technologies and follow Epic's recommended connection practices, known as the "Blueprint." Categories in Toolbox are chosen by Epic based on feedback from customers and industry research.
Fathom's autonomous coding technology empowers health systems and other provider organizations to overcome chronic workforce challenges and to strengthen both top and bottom lines. The technology delivers an average successful automation rate above 90% – nearly double that of any other technology in the market – across a broad set of medical specialties, generating industry-leading ROI. With Fathom, providers benefit from reduced costs, increased coding accuracy, reduced denials, improved revenue capture, and accelerated cash flow.
"The Epic Toolbox designation is an exciting development that makes our autonomous coding technology easier to access for health systems seeking relief from long-standing staffing and financial challenges," said Andrew Lockhart, CEO of Fathom. "I'm proud of the tangible impact our teams and clients on Epic have created thus far and am thrilled to continue delivering unparalleled value to providers across the nation."
Fathom provides the highest automation rates and broadest specialty coverage, while maintaining superhuman accuracy and compliance, to unlock true transformation for health systems. Automation rates measure the percentage of encounters completely and accurately coded by AI without human intervention, not merely suggested codes or partial automation. Only automation rates exceeding 90% across departments offer enterprise-scale impact, enabling leaders to free up capacity for patient care while consistently and instantly pushing guideline updates for organization-wide compliance.
To ensure Fathom's technology translates into real, measurable impact for providers, Fathom backs its autonomous coding with the industry's strongest SLAs. Clients enjoy peace of mind and predictability from contractual commitments for successful automation rates, audited accuracy rates, and coding turnaround times, among other performance metrics.
In addition to the Toolbox designation, Fathom was invited to exhibit its autonomous coding product at Epic's Users Group Meeting (UGM) 2024 in Verona, Wis., Aug. 19-21. CEO Andrew Lockhart and team were on site to discuss Fathom with leaders from Epic's customer base.
