What General Surgery Providers Are Saying

Real results from healthcare professionals using Dragon Medical One

Northeastern Health System

Reduced vendor management burden

Managing our transcription vendor was my biggest challenge. I felt like I had a leash around my neck—it didn't matter if it was nights or weekends, I had to be available to deal with constant after-hour calls from doctors complaining about something not showing up in their charts.

Cynthia Payne
Director, Health Information Management

Tanner Health System

$2M to $613 transcription costs

The patients don't see you looking at a keyboard and clicking. They see you talking about what's going on with them, and that allows them to see how much you've listened. It helps you bond better with them.

Dr. Bonnie Boles

Magnolia Regional Health Center

Turnaround from 24 hours to immediate

It was clear we needed to provide our physicians with as many options as possible to help them quickly capture information in the EHR and standardize their work process. This was our opportunity to virtually eliminate transcription costs and drastically improve turnaround times—from up to 24 hours to immediate availability.

Hancock Health

No voice training, minimal support calls

Our providers are finding that they do not need to do voice profile training. The embedded speech recognition is easily accessible within the EHR. They're almost completely self-sufficient now; we hardly get any help calls at all. There's nothing to install on-site, so we have nothing to maintain, which is an added benefit that has also reduced our costs.

Weekends reclaimed from charting

Dragon has literally made me a better father. The amount of free time I now have on the weekends to spend with my children is priceless. Before Dragon, I would spend anywhere from three to six hours on a Sunday, reviewing, editing, and signing numerous charts that took away family time. Dragon changed that for me, and I am grateful.

Dr. Michael Greene

Allina Health

167% increase in documentation

Not only do I use Dragon Medical One to document patient visits, I use it daily with other applications—creating presentation slides, emails, word documents, and spreadsheets. The accuracy and speed of the speech recognition helps me work more efficiently.
