What Providers Are Saying

Real results from healthcare professionals using Dragon Medical One

Northeastern Health System

2% deficiency rate

Moving to eScription One was literally life changing. Beyond giving us our nights and weekends back, this fundamentally changed our roles and our working relationships with clinicians.

Amanda Johnson
HIM Tech Specialist

Universal Health Services

60–90% voluntary adoption

Our goal was to transition at least 30% of patient stories to Nuance's cloud-based technology in conjunction with our EHR. Within just a few weeks, we were pleasantly surprised to see voluntary adoption rates of 60% to 90% across our hospitals. You don't reach numbers like that unless you have a good tool.

ProActive Pain and Neurology

Build rapport with in-room dictation

I find that if I have a patient tell me their history, and then immediately record it in the EMR in front of them, it helps build a better rapport. They're really thankful because they can verify that they've been listened to. It also saves a lot of time, because I'm done with the history when I'm done talking to the patient.
