Winscribe recently released a case study with the New Zealand Police Department who is using Winscribe with the Voice Forms module. The case study consists of a video and a PDF and describes how they have become more efficient using Winscribe Voice Forms.

It is a really great read and view to see a non-traditional use of dictation to gain efficiencies and some of the key messages of the Case Study are;

•  Winscribe rolled out to over 6,000 police officers in New Zealand
•  Police officers can use their phones to call a Freephone number and report intelligence in real time & complete voice forms
•  Allows Police officers to spend significantly longer out in the field, some up to 25% more time in the field
•  Integrated into police intelligence applications – provides quicker access to key intelligence
•  Used during the Canterbury Earthquakes and the Rugby World Cup as a real time intelligence gathering tool, facilitates strategic deployment decisions

The link to the PDF version of the case study can be found here and you can view the case study video here.

Hi Everyone,

Although it’s been a pretty hectic few weeks getting everything ready for the go live, we’re finally on our way thanks to all who have been involved and feedback from the pilot radiologists. After working through most of the workflow issues in the pilot phase of the Provincial SpeechQ For Radiology Speech Recognition project, we officially went live this week and the rollout is in full swing. We have been having great results so far with a majority of reports already being signed off at the point of dictation. Feedback so far from the end users has been extremely positive and we are looking forward to starting rollout at the second site next week which brings a second radiology group on board the SpeechQ system.

The current project timelines have us completing the WRHA portion of the rollout by April 2013 after which we will continue in the rural DSM sites.

I will be posting on the status of the project as it rolls out and am looking forward to be being able to share some of the feedback from the end users as well as the productivity gains that the Diagnostic Imaging departments are going to achieve from the project.

Nuance has recently released version 12 of its non-Medical versions of Dragon Naturally Speaking. We have a limited time promotion where we are offering upgrades to Dragon Professional version 12 from Dragon Professional version 10 and higher for $249.00 plus taxes. Normal upgrade price is $299.00

Some of the new features in Dragon Naturally Speaking 12:

Increased Accuracy:
With up to a 20% improvement to out-of-the-box accuracy compared to Dragon 11, Dragon 12 just gets you, and you get your words on the screen the way you intended. And when you do need to make a correction, Dragon learns, making it more accurate the more that you use it.

Smart Format Rules:
Dragon 12 automatically learns your preferences when you make a change to how words, phrases or numbers are formatted — so your dictated text looks the way you want it to every time.

Interactive Tutorial:

A new interactive tutorial in Dragon 12 guides you through fun exercises that demonstrate best practices for dictating, editing and formatting so that you can get up and running quickly. Proposed at the end of profile creation and available at any time from the Help menu, the Interactive Tutorial in Dragon 12 offers short progressive simulations to help you practice good dictation, correction and editing habits so that you can create text efficiently within just a few minutes. Even experienced Dragon users can benefit from the Interactive Tutorial.

Dragon Medical Practice Edition is the newest edition to the Dragon voice recognition line of software and is designed for medical practices with less than 25 physicians. This new software will save doctors countless hours filling out electronic health records and will increase the quality and accuracy of patient notation and diagnosis by allowing doctors to capture the patient’s visit in their own words.

Check out the following commands that can help you save time while using Dragon Medical Practice Edition.

1. Standard SOAP Template

This is easily the most useful command available in Dragon Medical Practice Edition. SOAP stands for Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan. Simply say, “SOAP Template” to use this feature. With the SOAP template, doctors can explain when the patient came in and for what reason, what avenues of treatment have been investigated so far, how the treatment is going, and what the plan is moving into the future.

2. What can I say?

If you’re new to voice dictation software, you’ll find this simple command extremely helpful. With Dragon Medical Practice Edition running, saying, “What can I say?” into the microphone will bring up the software’s Dragon Toolbar help feature.

The toolbar will then show you a list of all the different commands you can use to control the Dragon Medical Practice Edition software. Better still is that the “What can I say?” command is contextual, meaning that it will show you appropriate commands depending on the software you’re using at that time. If you’re using electronic medical health records software, the toolbar will show you all the commands you can use in that software. Conversely, if you’re running MS Word, the toolbar will show you the different commands you can use for word processing.

3. Transfer text

Normally you can dictate and use Dragon voice commands in any window of any application. Occasionally though, you may prefer using Dragon Medical Practice Edition’s Dictation Box to take advantage of Dragon’s command modes, correction modes, and powerful macros. Once you’ve used the Dictation Box, you’ll probably want to paste that text into your program of choice. This is where the “Transfer text” command comes in.

To open the Dictation Box, you can either use the keyboard shortcut, Control + Shift + D or you can simply say, “Open dictation box.”

Once you’ve opened the dictation box and have dictated and edited your text, move your cursor and click in the window you wish to transfer text into and simply say “Transfer text”.

4. Signature

Doctors are required to sign dozens of documents each day. This is yet another thing that can slow down productivity and ultimately increase patient wait times. Thankfully, Dragon Medical Practice Edition is able to store a scanned signature for use.

Create your signature on a standard white piece of paper and scan it in using your home or office scanner. Once you have the file, save it to the Dragon Medical Practice Edition software. It will then be available for use anytime you need it. Simply say, “Signature”. Easy!

5. Print that

The advent of electronic medical health records has revolutionized the way many medical practices around the world operate. But there’s a reason why practices relied on paper for so many years: It’s an instant look at information.

For this reason, doctors may choose to print out documents to send to a referred physician, a laboratory, or the secretary. To use this command, simply say, “Print that.”

Hope you found these 5 productivity boosters helpful! Click Here to buy Dragon Medical and increase the efficiency of your clinic.
