Using Dragon Speech Recognition within EMIS Clinical System
EMIS Web is one of the UK’s most popular electronic patient record systems.
The EMIS software is primarily used in primary and acute care meaning it has a key role in the functioning of many hospitals and general practices all over the country.
Through working alongside the NHS and healthcare industry as a whole for over twenty years, we’re no stranger to the EMIS clinical system.
In fact, Dragon speech recognition is fully compatible with EMIS, so we work with it a lot.
There are two medical versions of speech recognition:
- Dragon Medical Practice Edition – Hosted on-premise, ideal for fewer users.
- Dragon Medical One – Cloud-based and therefore suited to larger organisations with more users.
Between these two versions, we have helped many of our clients to boost productivity and efficiency by using Dragon and EMIS alongside one another.
What Can Dragon and EMIS Achieve Together?
Ultimately, Dragon allows users to complete the same tasks and duties as before, but just that little bit quicker.
Here are some examples of what Dragon can help you with:
- Recording patient consultations.
- Creating referral letters.
- Create and respond to tasks.
- Navigate the software by voice.
- Create custom commands to complete repetitive tasks.
The software has improved the quality of life of our GP’s, it was a good investment for the practice.
