Medical Speech Technology Solutions
Efficient Workflow Solutions
As time moves on, more and more is asked of physicians in Canada; well beyond patient care. Documentation, certainly a must, often consumes far too much of a medical practitioner’s day, impacting the primary role of looking after patients.

Dictate Into EMRs
Quickly complete patient consultations and follow-ups by dictating directly into your EMR.

Recorder Dictation
Dictate into a digital voice recorder if preferred or when not in front of a computer.

Increase Patient Care
Generate a valuable patient narrative in your own words for increased patient care.
Dragon Speech Recognition
Dragon Medical, the most powerful and widely used speech recognition solution in medicine today, enables physicians to navigate and dictate into most Windows applications and remote EMR systems using voice.
Doctors are able to dictate progress notes in their own words, adding considerable value for their patients. In many cases, repetitious tasks within an EMR are completed with custom voice commands. By giving clinicians the power to dictate literally while reviewing the full medical record or test results, physicians decrease charting time and increase efficiency.
Dragon Medical With & Without Digital Voice Dictation
Organized below is a flowchart outlining the use of Dragon Medical Practice Edition speech recognition in the medical office or outside of the medical office with a digital voice recorder.
Some physicians wish to control some or all aspects of letter and consult generation. Others are far too busy to spend any time proofreading (editing their misspoken words or correcting Dragon’s transcription errors).
Regardless of the level of involvement, Dragon Medical speech recognition saves a physician time, offers more control, and assists in completing documentation more quickly.
NOTE: Digital audio files can only be transcribed with Dragon Medical Practice Edition and not Dragon Medical One. Moreover, only Dragon Medical Practice Edition is capable of saving voice with direct dictation (using a microphone) for proofreading by an assistant.

Digital Voice Dictation
Medical practices relying upon tape-based dictation processes may experience problems such as garbled dictation, broken tapes, and inefficient transcription processes. Digital dictation streamlines dictation and transcription, increases productivity, and makes vital patient information available in a timely manner.
Dictations created with a digital voice recorder are either downloaded onto a local network, or sent via email or FTP. Whether you are in the office or outside of the office, the digital voice recorder is available any time you need it.

Combining Dragon Speech Recognition & Digital Voice Dictation
When these two productivity enhancing technologies are combined, the solution offers the utmost flexibility for physicians who practice outside of their main office. Many doctors spend short periods of time in geographically remote locations.
A combined speech recognition and digital voice dictation solution enables immediate transcription by Dragon Medical Practice Edition (or a transcriptionist, if preferred), after which their clinic support staff directs the consult letters accordingly. A well-planned workflow solution enables seamless integration of these two technologies, allowing medical offices to avoid a backlog of untranscribed dictations.
