Among all of the technological innovations made in clinical documentation, speech understanding has helped streamline processes and alleviate workloads. In the beginning, many speech recognition applications left much to be desired, and in some cases, caused even more frustration than traditional typing. Speech understanding technology by M*Modal, on the other hand, is the first and only cloud-based platform that provides a comprehensive understanding of the physician’s overall narrative, not just individual words. This advancement has been a gamechanger when it comes to clinical documentation. In fact, new research within the clinical documentation field indicates that natural language processing and speech understanding technology are vital for improving your clinical documentation systems.
Tasks Accomplished by Speech Understanding
There are numerous features of speech understanding technology that not only improve clinical documentation but can actually help to eliminate tedious tasks. When you enhance your clinical documentation system with M*Modal’s speech understanding, you can rest assured that this technology will help simplify the day-to-day lives of your providers. This system is equipped with a library of nearly 200,000 voice patterns, plug-and-play technology that allows physicians to work from anywhere, and an ability to automatically adapt to differences in cadence, accent, and dialect. This means that any task related to note-taking, documentation, or reports can be dictated and accurately recorded, saving time and spares any unnecessary frustration.
Additional Benefits of Speech Understanding
Older versions of speech recognition technology involved more training and practice in order to incorporate the feature into everyday life. These former versions would often require physicians to memorize and call out specific terms to verbally cue the speech engine. At Fast Chart, we recognize that changes of any kind are difficult, especially changes that disrupt the established flow of the practice. This is why the speech understanding technology that we provide is ready to use in minutes with little to no need for IT support. More importantly, speech understanding by M*Modal allows physicians to dictate using a normal, conversational tone without the need to learn any specific cues or to adapt to any unnatural cadence. This natural way of speaking can enhance the accuracy of electronic health records and can promote a complete final product. This improved version of dictation can also simplify documentation requirements by allowing physicians to dictate their notes or provide educational materials for their patients.
It is essential to constantly be evolving and preparing to provide your patients with the highest quality of care in the medical industry. This involves staying up to date with the latest technology and innovations.
