INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

The rush to adopt Electronic Health Records (EHR) is on. Funding for those who qualify under the Medicare and Medicaid Electronic Health Records Incentive Programs under the HITECH provisions of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act can run up to $44,000 for Medicare, and up to $64,000 for Medicaid.

The Clock Is Ticking! To get the maximum incentive payment, Medicare eligible professionals must begin participation by 2012.

Beginning in 2015,

physicians who elect not to use

an EMR will be penalized, starting

with a 1% Medicare fee reduction.

Medical providers who do not adopt

an EMR after 2017 will face a 3%

Medicare fee reduction and 5%

Medicare fee reduction in 2019.

Medical speech recognition is effective at helping physicians create electronic health records. Today, over

400,000 clinicians use voice recognition to dictate findings into electronic records—far more than those

documenting findings solely via typing or ‘mouse clicks.’ Speech recognition allows physicians to capture

anywhere their observations, assessments, and plans for ready access within the EHR.

Mobile/On-the-Go

Capturing voice at the point of care with various professional voice processing devices, all designed to convert spoken words into digital documents. This process is done with true automation through the finest software that is 100% integrated with Medical Speech Recognition software.

Static

Using wired or secure wireless USB Microphones to navigate the PC or MAC and at the press of a button, launching a template to begin dictating.

Smart Phone or Tablet

The demand from some Physicians to utilize Android phones, iPhones or iPads in their clinics is on the rise. The voice is captured and securely routed through Speech Exec Enterprise and Dragon® Medical Practice Edition software. A digital document waiting for their signature is returned…all without human intervention.

The benefits of speech-enabled EHR systems include:

HOW DRAGON® MEDICAL PRACTICE EDITION FITS INTO THE MIX AND WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS TO THE DOCTOR?

Dramatically reduced transcription expense.

Substantially improved physician experience.

Improved patient care via complete documentation that is immediately available.

Speech Recognition substantially improves patient care. Prior studies by the Institute of Medicine

have determined that many medical errors occur because of a lack of universal access to patient

documentation. Leveraging speech recognition technology, physicians can infuse the patient record with

their direct observations, assessments, and plans—in their own words. Having patient notes immediately

available in the EHR means that all members of a patient’s care team have access to up-to-date,

complete information; meaning better decisions and better patient care.

Reduction in time spent

documenting care.

Increased per-patient revenue

by enabling physicians to

document a more complete

patient note.
