Dictaphone Healthcare Solutions Group has signed an agreement to implement its Enterprise Workstation, PowerScribe, EXSpeech, and Enterprise Express applications at St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton in Hamilton, Ontario.
Approximately 500 physicians at the multisite facility will be able to dictate their medical notes from anywhere, and speech recognition technology will turn those notes into electronic documentation, according to Stratford, CT-based Dictaphone. In addition, all the Dictaphone applications will integrate with the organization's hospital information system, the company said.
Two St. Joseph's Healthcare sites (a total of 200 seats) will be enabled with speech recognition, employing both transcription-assisted and physician self-complete modes. In addition, 28 radiologists will have dedicated workstations, integrated with a PACS, Dictaphone said.
