The St. Anthony Hospital Group, headquartered in Rockford, Illinois, recently announced it has deployed Dragon Medical speech recognition software from Nuance to speech-enable its documentation process.
St. Anthony chose Dragon Medical after a pilot program demonstrated the technology's benefits. During the test run, speech recognition saved an average of 1.6 minutes per dictation, a key figure for one of the busiest trauma networks in the nation. As a whole, the group averages 100,000 emergency room visits per year.
“Results from the pilot program validated our belief that Dragon Medical is the best real-time speech recognition solution. Within two hours for most physicians, Dragon Medical became core to our Emergency Department workflow," said Rob Schmidt, an emergency room doctor for St. Anthony.
Since deployment, physicians have also spent less time editing medical records and improved patient care through improved accuracy in medical records, the organization said.
American Dictation Corp. offers a full line of products from Nuance, the speech recognition industry leader. The website also contains expertise and information for companies across various industries looking to adopt the technology.
