Electronic Medical Records and Speech Recognition Integration
Consistent with the opinion of President Bush, former first lady Hillary Clinton, as well as hundreds of politicians from both sides of the isle, we believe that every physician should utilize an Electronic Medical Record. Hundreds of millions of dollars of Federal money have been spent trying to facilitate EMR adoption, and there is active discussion of billions of dollars to come.
Furthermore, we know that utilizing Dragon® NaturallySpeaking® Medical speech recognition greatly facilitates the adoption rate of EMRs. Moreover, the use of Dragon Medical increases the quality of the medical notes, and lowers the ‘cookie-cutter’ appearance of notes which are produced exclusively by clicking. We believe that essentially every EMR installation should utilize speech recognition, and in fact, EMRConsultant.com, a division of 1450, Inc. has as its major focus the integration of Dragon Medical with a very wide variety of EMRs.
