I'm not tied to my personal workstation.

Reduce burnout with voice navigation

We wanted to address provider burnout—a major influence on providers. We also wanted to create an EHR experience where providers could complete their documentation faster than typing and use voice commands to simplify navigating the EHR.

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.

Nuance technologies allow us to further benefit from our investment in the EMR. We have already achieved our physician satisfaction goals, and now we are helping improve quality of care.

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.
