Show meSpeech recognition drives efficiencies and cost savings in clinical documentation by turning clinician dictations into formatted documents -- automatically.
Front-end speech recognition allows clinicians to dictate, self-edit and sign transcription-free, completed reports in one sitting – directly into a RIS/PACS system or EHR. Front-end speech recognition also allows physicians to navigate quickly from one section of the EHR to another, saving valuable time.
Background speech recognition turns clinician dictation into speech-recognized first drafts that medical transcriptionists (MTs) edit, resulting in up to 100% gains in MT productivity when compared to traditional transcription.

“We were most interested in the ROI associated with implementing a speech-enabled technology. We were spending close to $1.2 million on transcription costs in our primary care network and with the implementation of Dragon Medical to complement our Allscripts EMR, our projected cost for transcription has been brought to zero.”
Dr. Betty Rabinowitz, Primary Care Internist

“PowerScribe offered much better integration with our PACS and RIS systems, was fully web-based, and had a proven track record of successes in usability, and proven cost savings. Overnight, actually, we went live with PowerScribe, so it was a very effortless procedure. We were blown away by how well it was integrated with everything else.”
