Enhancements beyond process & cost

Conserve the patient story

The effort needed to complete the regulatory requirements of basic structured information and the essence of the patient story – the narrative including the involvement e.g. of carers and relatives – becomes constrained or is even lost. The story of the patient journey disappears becoming instead a collection of unconnected data points.

Enjoyment and satisfaction at work

Healthcare workers find having good patient relationships is the most satisfying part of their job. However, they are becoming de-motivated and frustrated with an overload of administration and the lack of time spent with patients. Speech- recognition software helps to improve the day-to-day working lives of the healthcare professionals in the NHS and other health institutions because they are certain that their documentation is more accurate and complete to provide better quality care.

Hospitals migrate to a paperless process

Speech to text solutions that work with clinical systems such as the EPR are a key part of making a paperless NHS a reality. In a 2016 research report from the Nuffield Trust on delivering the benefits of digital healthcare, 'voice-recognition' technology is highlighted as one of the ways healthcare professionals of the future will spend less time on administrative tasks and routine communication.

Quality time

Freed from the burden of administration by using speech-enabled clinical documentation doctors, nurses and therapists have more time to observe, listen and interpret the patient story and put the patient back at the centre of care. More time, better communication, empathy and involvement in the process of their own care will improve concordance with medical treatment and is likely to improve quality of care outcomes.
