Looking for a Solventum encoder alternative?
Solventum is 3M's health-care business, spun out in 2024, and its Codefinder and 360 Encompass systems are the encoders a large share of US hospital HIM departments run on. They are enterprise software: no published price, no trial, and a sales conversation before you see a screen. Medical Coding & Billing Pro is $390 a year, visible on the pricing page, and the trial starts when you click.
This is our real search, on the real index. Try it before you give us anything.
Why coders move
There is no price and no way to try it
Solventum publishes no pricing for Codefinder or 360 Encompass anywhere on its coding pages — the only route on any of them is 'Contact us'. That is a reasonable way to sell a facility-wide implementation and an impossible way to buy a tool for yourself this afternoon. Ours costs $390, it says so on the page, and the trial needs no card and no call.
It is sized for a HIM department, not a coder
360 Encompass is a platform: computer-assisted coding over the chart, CDI worklists, audit workflow, grouper logic, and an EHR integration project to connect it all. If you run inpatient coding for a hospital, that is genuinely the right shape of product and we are not competing with it. If you are one coder, or five, you are buying a department's machinery to answer a coder's question.
The encoder you are thinking of may not be theirs
TruCode is the one that gets confused with this constantly. TruCode became TruBridge Encoder after TruBridge — formerly CPSI — acquired it in 2021 and renamed it in 2023. It is not a Solventum product and never was. If you are comparing quotes, check which company is on which one.
What you give up by switching
Written by us, about them. If any of these matter more to you than the price, stay where you are — we would rather you did that than pay us for a year and find out.
- CPT content, which we do not have (it needs an AMA licence we do not hold)
- The MS-DRG and APC grouper logic, which we deliberately do not attempt
- Computer-assisted coding against the actual chart, with NLP over clinical documentation
- Deep EHR integration and inpatient facility workflows built for a whole HIM department
- Decades of hospital deployment behind it, from the 3M years
Switching costs you nothing but the subscription: this is reference data, so there is no migration, no import, and nothing to set up. If we are wrong for you, you will know inside the seven days, and we never took a card.
Common questions
- How much does Solventum Codefinder / 360 Encompass cost?
- Solventum Codefinder / 360 Encompass does not publish pricing. It is quote-only, via a demo request. Verified August 13, 2026.
- Is there a cheaper alternative to Solventum Codefinder / 360 Encompass?
- Medical Coding & Billing Pro is $390 per year with everything included and a 7-day free trial that does not require a card. Note that Solventum Codefinder / 360 Encompass's entry tier may be cheaper than that if all you need is code lookup; the comparison that matters is against the tier that includes compliance checking.
- Is there a free encoder for medical coding?
- Partly, and the limit is worth understanding before you rely on one. Our ICD-10-CM, ICD-10-PCS and HCPCS Level II lookups are free with no account and no card — that covers every diagnosis code, every inpatient procedure code, and the drugs, supplies and equipment codes. What no free tool can include is CPT: those descriptors are licensed by the AMA, so any encoder offering CPT is paying for it and charging you accordingly. If your work is diagnosis-led, a free lookup genuinely is enough. If you code physician procedures all day, it is not, and anyone telling you otherwise is either unlicensed or about to ask for your card.
