Additional Detail for Dragon Medical

Dragon Medical provides clinicians and information technology departments the following benefits:

Dragon Medical Provides More Efficient Care
  • Dictate faster and more accurately than ever:
    Dragon Medical 10 is up to 20% more accurate "out-of-the-box" than Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical 9 —saving valuable minutes. Additionally, Dragon Medical 10 has virtually instant response time, saving clinicians valuable minutes in their day.
  • Dictate anywhere in your EMR:
    Dragon Medical allows clinicians to dictate anywhere in an EMR system: while reviewing Lab Tests, Patient History, or Current Medications. Clinicians no longer have to click back and forth between information they're reviewing and the dictation window, but dictate while reviewing information and the Hidden Mode feature allows the doctor to paste the dictation directly where he or she wants to place it.
  • Clinicians Up to 25 Percent More Efficient with EMRs:
    Eliminating reliance on typing allows clinicians to spend more time practicing medicine and up to 25 percent less time documenting care, when compared to using a non voice-enabled EMR. With Dragon Medical's new macro capability, clinicians can create customized voice shortcuts for common phrases or larger blocks of text with embedded fields, and via abbreviated voice commands such as "patient history," speed up documentation and associated desktop, EMR or Web search and navigation tasks.
Dragon Medical Provides More Effective Care

Clinicians receive the following advantages from Dragon Medical 10 over version 9 or non-Medical 10 products:

  • Spend more time with patients. Increased accuracy and fewer errors to correct means clinicians can spend more time with patients, improving patient satisfaction.
  • Dictate in your own words. Dragon Medical's superior free text dictation capability supports more detailed History of Present Illness, more flexible Review of Systems, and more descriptive Assessment and Plan – the "medical decision-making" aspects of the note – which give referring clinicians a more detailed patient assessment and prognosis.
  • Secure patient information. Only Dragon Medical supports HIPAA compliance guidelines to protect patient security and confidentiality.
  • Improve physician satisfaction. Physicians who use Dragon Medical use their time more effectively, and by getting home in time for dinner, physicians' overall quality of life is improved.
Dragon Medical Provides More Profitable Care
  • Support higher level of reimbursement. Dragon Medical lets clinicians create more detailed notes than notes built only by "point and click", templated-only EMR menus.
  • Reduce denials. Better documentation improves coding effectiveness and provides richer detail per patient, which means fewer denials.
  • Reduce the cost of documentation. Eliminate transcription by speech-enabling your EMR, freeing up resources to focus more on patients and invest in methods to help practice efficiency. Medical centers that use Dragon Medical today are eliminating transcription costs and saving $500-1000 a month per physician.
  • Increase practice volume. Faster, more accurate response reduces clinician time spent on dictation, allowing physicians can see more patients and increase practice revenue and profitability.

Dragon Medical Editions Comparison

There are three Dragon Medical editions and each offers physician practices and hospitals a flexible solution designed to uniquely fit their workflow and budget requirements. They include:

  • Dragon Medical: Targeted at the mid-sized (6-25 doctor) physician practice market to create real-time electronic records via dictation into any EMR. Clinicians navigate and document care anywhere within the EMRs via voice. Physicians create more detailed patient notes and augment uses of EMR templates. Includes many features not found in Dragon Medical Small Practice.
  • Dragon Medical Enterprise (Formerly OLP): For large (25+ doctor practices and hospitals) organizations that have made an enterprise-wide commitment to accelerating EMR productivity via real-time speech. Offers the lowest cost of ownership for on an enterprise-wide basis with features such as remote installs, physician access via any laptop or PC, and the ability to access and back up voice files via a central server.

Dragon Medical Product Features

Below is a summary of new features and capabilities which will be found in Dragon Medical 10:

Major New Features and Enhancements in Dragon Medical 10
  • Improved Accuracy. (Enhanced) You won't find a more accurate speech recognition product for your PC anywhere. Dragon Medical 10 is up to 20% more accurate than Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Version 9, and Dragon Medical 10 is over 38% more accurate than Dragon Professional 10 when used in a medical setting.
  • Faster Than Ever. (Enhanced) Compared to Version 9, Dragon Medical 10 delivers significant improvement in response time. Fast speakers will observe more than 50% reduction in the time it takes for words to appear on the screen. Since some speakers pause in their dictation to watch the results, having words appear on the screen sooner facilitates a more seamless dictation experience.
  • Electronic Medical Record Support. (Enhanced) Medical professionals can navigate and dictate inside third-party EMR application software.
  • Hidden Mode. (New) Users can dictate while reviewing lab or radiology test results and save when finished anywhere in the EMR. (Not available in Dragon Medical Small Practice).

(Not available in Dragon Medical Small Practice)
  • Improved Auto-Transcription. (Enhanced) The Auto-Transcribe Folder Agent now creates a synchronized audio file along with the automatic transcript for deferred correction. Dragon Medical 10 gives the Auto-Transcribe Agent the option of creating a synchronized audio (.DRA) file along with the transcript file, making it possible to later get the benefit of Playback and Correction—just like users dictating in word processors can save the .DRA file along with their dictated document, which enables a third party to correct errors, refining the speaker's profile.
  • Correction Only Profile. (New) Dragon Medical 10 lets "correctionists" open dictation files to make corrections by keyboard, which contributes to the optimization of the speaker's profile over time. (Not available in Dragon Medical Small Practice)
  • New Look and Feel. (New) Updated icons are intuitive and easy to see. Dragon Medical 10 introduces new graphical icons to enhance the DragonBar user interface, making the product easier to use.

  • Automatic Accuracy Tuning. (New) Dragon can automatically run tuning programs to improve accuracy while you sleep.
  • Embedded Data Collection Tool. (New) An optional data collection engine (switched off by default) is embedded in the product to encourage more users to collect speech data and share with Nuance to help improve overall product accuracy in future releases.

Dragon Medical 10 setup now offers dysarthric support to tune acoustic models during initial configuration.

  • Quick Voice Formatting (Delete and Format commands). (Enhanced) In addition to the many existing editing commands such as "Delete line", Dragon Medical 10 introduces direct commands for formatting, deleting, and copying named words and passages. Rather than selecting the relevant word(s) or passage and commanding what to do with that text (e.g., "Select very, [pause] Bold that"), you can now directly name the desired text with the desired action in a single voice command, such as "Bold very."
