Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 will:

 

Improve Care Efficiency

Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 offers virtually instant response time, saving clinicians valuable minutes in their day – no more waiting for transcribed reports or needing to type into their EHRs.

 

 

 

Reduce Transcription and the Cost of Documentation

Using speech recognition technology, clinicians dictate, edit and sign medical records at the point of care, eliminating as much as $12,000 in annual transcription costs.

 

 

 

Allow Physicians to Spend More Time with Patients

Increased accuracy means fewer errors to correct, which lets clinicians spend more time with patients, improving both quality of care and patient satisfaction.

 

 

 

Improve Documentation

Documentation with Dragon Medical speech recognition technology

 – as opposed to notes built by point-and-click EHR templates alone

– results in higher rates of reimbursement.

 

Keep Patient Information Secure

Dragon Medical Practice Edition supports HIPAA patient confidentiality guidelines.

 

 

 

Improve Physician Satisfaction

With Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2, physicians look forward to practicing medicine – and getting home in time for dinner.

 

 

 

Increase Reimbursement

A major study by a physician practice in the Northeast determined that using Dragon Medical with an EHR increases per-physician reimbursement by $10,000 per year per physician.

• Administrators can obtain a recognition log file for each end-user, to easily and quickly gather rich, objective usage information which can be used to give users targeted advice and measure return on investment.

Transcription, Streamlined:

• Dragon Medical's Auto-Transcribe Folder Agent (ATFA) manages the flow of transcribed text and synchronized audio of digital voice recordings to streamline third-party review and correction. In version 2, Dragon's ATFA:
• Supports .DOC and .RTF as output formats, in addition to .TXT
• Can run a script (such as an email notification) when a transcription is complete *
• Note: The "Roaming” configuration allows dictation and third-party correction from different network locations and computing devices while ensuring centralized management of master user profiles.

Export Custom Words:

• You can choose to export word properties in XML format when you export custom word lists for reuse in other user profiles.

Remote Desktop Connection:

• Use Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 Without Installing It Locally. Dragon now supports remote use on a computer running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7 Ultimate. With Microsoft's free Remote Desktop Connection software (formerly called Terminal Services Client), you can use Dragon from a local Windows computer on which Dragon itself is not installed. While Dragon is running on the server, multiple Windows clients can use it simultaneously.

Even More Accurate

• Improved Accuracy: Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 delivers up to a 20% improvement in out-of-box accuracy compared to Dragon Medical Practice Edition. This means that Dragon gets you, and you get things done, faster than ever. And when you do need to make a correction, Dragon learns, making it more accurate the more that you use it.

Faster Than Ever

• Faster Processors Yield Faster Performance: If you use Dragon on a computer with multi-core processors and more than 4 GB of RAM, Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 automatically selects the BestMatch V speech model for you when you create your user profile in order to deliver faster performance.

When it detects that the USB dongle of a certified microphone is plugged into the PC, Dragon 12 offers "Enhanced Bluetooth” as an audio source type and does not require a script reading to get started. (Available in Premium Edition and above).

Option to Automate the Dictation Box

• Dragon can automatically display this resizable intermediary box when you dictate into a text field for which it does not have Full Text Control; that way, you can enjoy Dragon capabilities such as Direct Editing commands and capitalization of the first word. (You can disable or enable this on the Miscellaneous tab of the Options dialog.)

Smart Format Rules

• Smart Format Rules: Dragon now reaches out to you to adapt upon detecting your format corrections – abbreviations, numbers, and more — so your dictated text looks the way you want it to every time.

FAQS:

 

What Healthcare Challenges Does Dragon Medical Practice Edition Solve?

 

EHRs offer the potential to dramatically improve the cost and quality of healthcare. Despite this potential, EHR software is used by only 57% of clinicians in the U.S. today. In order to understand the potential benefits of Dragon® Medical Practice Edition, it is important to articulate the factors that are driving U.S. healthcare toward EHR adoption, as well as the factors that are inhibiting EHR adoption.

 

Incentive payments to physicians have dramatically accelerated EHR software purchasing and implementation. Passed in 2009, the Health IT for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH) provides physicians up to $64,000 each ‘for showing that they are meaningfully using health information technology', by purchasing and using CCHIT-certified (www.cchit.org) EHRs. According to the 2010 CapSite Ambulatory EHR and PM Study, 42% of all physician practices indicated they had purchased an EHR in the previous two years— up from 37% a year earlier.

 

 

Physicians must also purchase EHRs in order to report to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) a number of Clinical Quality Measures (CQMs), as well as maintain Problem Lists and Medication Lists. Clearly, EHR templates are required to capture these elements of the patient encounter to meet CMS guidelines.

 

Dragon Medical Practice Edition is the speech recognition solution from Nuance® Healthcare designed for use not only by doctors but also nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, therapists, and other care providers. For practices with less than 25 physicians, Dragon Medical Practice Edition is the only real-time speech recognition solution which fits busy clinicians' needs.

 

Dragon Medical Practice Edition introduces a faster, more efficient way for medical professionals to create medical records, medical correspondence, or email messages. Dragon Medical Practice Edition introduces a new, faster speech recognition engine that is over 20% more accurate than previous versions.

 

This solution turns voice into text three times faster than most people can type, with up to 99% accuracy, using any Windows®-based EHR system. Dragon Medical Practice Edition includes vocabularies covering more than 90 medical specialties.

 

WHY USE DRAGON MEDICAL PRACTICE EDITION?

Here are just a few reasons why Dragon Medical Practice Edition is for you:

 

• Improves the quality, efficiency, and profitability of the care you provide

• Raises clinician satisfaction Physicians who use Dragon Medical Practice Edition report that it makes the practice of medicine more enjoyable and that they can get home in time for dinner—no more late nights and weekends catching up on dictating/typing and signing patient charts.

• Accelerates EHR adoption Clinicians can dictate the ‘medical decision-making’—History of Present Illness, Review of Symptoms, Assessment and Plan—while within the EHR.

 

 

HOW DOES DRAGON MEDICAL PRACTICE EDITION COMPARE WITH OTHER DRAGON NON-MEDICAL PRODUCTS?

 

 

 

 

Tests comparing products used in a clinical setting show that Dragon Medical Practice Edition is over 30% more accurate than Dragon Professional 12 for dictating patient records.

 

 

Dragon Medical Practice Edition covers more than 90 medical specialties, which means that you won’t encounter missing terms or phrases—they’re all there ‘out of the box’.

 

 

Physicians using Dragon Professional would lose thousands of dollars in practice revenue, or more than a year in time spent correcting errors, or adding medical terms that are already in Dragon Medical Practice Edition. As a result, Dragon Medical Practice Edition is the most cost-effective Dragon speech recognition for clinicians in physician practice settings—by far.

 

 

Further, Dragon Medical Practice Edition protects sensitive and confidential patient information by supporting encrypted network file storage of speech files, helping your organization satisfy HIPAA privacy and confidentiality guidelines. Dragon Medical Practice Edition features secure encryption methods, which provide even greater levels of information security.

 

 

 

 

HOW MANY PHYSICIANS ARE USING DRAGON MEDICAL SPEECH RECOGNITION SOLUTIONS TODAY?
