Real-time guidance for better documentation quality
Dragon Medical Advisor, an industry—leading Computer Assisted Physician Documentation (CAPD) solution, engages clinicians at the point of care with evidence–based advice that fits naturally into existing clinician narrative notes through Dragon Medical One, allowing them more time to focus on what matters most—taking care of patients.
Solutions
Drive appropriate data entry with SNOMED CT across the episode of care
The key to enhance the clinical documentation quality and compliance, avoid rework and improve the communication in the clinical pathway.
Dragon Medical Advisor combines real‑time guidance seamlessly with speech‑recognition, to further improve productivity, efficiency and coding accuracy.
Standardised terminology to code across many medical disciplines with more precise vocabulary. Coding diagnoses with relevant clinical information advances the quality of care.
Clear opportunity for medical professionals at all levels to reduce errors and create richer electronic patient records (EPR).
Benefits
Real-time Intelligence to capture accurate data while documenting clinical narrative notes in the patient’s record
Dragon Medical Advisor allows clinicians to follow NHS guidance by coding with the latest version of SNOMED CT and helps steer greater documentation quality including:
Enables clinicians to better capture detailed conditions and highlights important missing clinical information at the point of care to identify and add critical details that improve expected outcomes.
Drives consistent data entry and enhances quality to give care teams more coordinated and timely access to information. Helps clinicians to dedicate more time to patients care and dramatically speeds up coding accurately with SNOMED CT.
Empowers coding teams process the details of care given, more efficiently. More accurate coding helps Trusts reduce mis‑coded episodes of care and plug gaps where revenue is lost through inaccuracies.
Bolsters SNOMED CT coding process according to best practice, to reduce additional rework and ambiguity by using a standardised language.
Features
Access in-workflow guidance and the features that matter most
Automatically identifies missing important clinical information to add at the point of care improving effectiveness and avoiding rework.
Advises on adding specificity to clinical terms, suggests potential missing diagnoses in the narrative to support the clarification. SNOMED CT codes are produced and can be inserted in the EPR, increasing productivity and satisfaction.
Assits that adoption of single clinical terminology is occurred over time across the entire patient pathway.
Hosted on Microsoft Azure, GDPR compliant and ISO 27001‑certified hosting infrastructure to support privacy, security and compliance.
