EMR Data Capture by Dictation

Are any of the following commonly heard issues familiar to you?

1. Our physicians are unhappy with clicking into an EMR for data entry. It is tedious and too slow!
2. We are unable to access the data in our EMR for anything but the most basic queries. Our EMR makes it difficult to access our patient record database aside from through its interface.
3. Our physicians are unhappy because we do not any longer have free-text documentation for encounters for which data was entered via clicking in the EMR.
4. Our physicians want their government incentive money for using an EMR but don’t have it yet because we haven’t met Meaningful Use standards.
5. The data in our EMR is not truly structured. For example, I can record that a patient is a smoker in 7 different ways, so it would be hard for me to generate a report listing all the smokers.

If any of the above is familiar to you, consider how ZyDoc’s MediSapien EMR Data Capture by Dictation service can help.
