Enterprise Speech Recognition

Tightly integrated into MedQuist’s DocQment™ Enterprise Platform for dictation and transcription, speech recognition technology saves time, money and resources with faster document turnaround times, more productive transcriptionists, and a healthier bottom line, all without requiring physicians to alter their dictation patterns.

This enterprise speech recognition solution can increase productivity in several ways:

• Reducing medical transcription costs by eliminating or reducing keystrokes.
• Expediting report turnaround times.
• Allowing physicians to use familiar phone or handheld dictation.
• Enhancing patient care by improving the creation and accessibility of medical records.
• Meeting volume requirements and solving staffing issues.

Benefits:

• Automatically converts voice to text, reducing the number of keystrokes as well as turnaround time and backlog.
• Synchronized voice and text enable the editor to listen to the recorded audio and view the corresponding text. The text in progress is highlighted on the screen, providing a “bouncing ball” effect that improves the ease and accuracy of the editing process.
• Audio and text files are linked, allowing the editor to quickly move to any location in the audio file by a single keystroke, eliminating the need to fast-forward and rewind, and reducing the time required to edit documents.

Integrated with the industry-leading Philips SpeechMagic™ technology to incorporate productivity features such as the suppression of hesitations, silences and noise disturbances during dictation that lead to unnecessary editing work. It also automatically inserts all punctuation and corrects grammar in the text document.

Medical editors rely on DocQment Enterprise Platform’s powerful text editor to correct the speech-recognized text file while listening to the synchronized audio file. Once edited, the document can be imported through the system for review and printed or uploaded into a health information system.
