The Intelligent Speech Alternative Improves Quality Of Care Just By Doing What Comes Naturally

In a world of EHRs, Meaningful Use, ACOs and increasing regulations, how will healthcare providers keep up with all these new requirements, yet still do what they do best – deliver quality patient care?

Use the power of Speech Understanding™– the more intelligent approach to fully leveraging the physician’s narrative. Going beyond simple speech recognition M*Modal Fluency Direct is the ideal way to enable physicians and other clinicians to automatically populate EHRs and all of the systems that help your organization document patient information, power your revenue cycle and comply with government initiatives.

M*Modal Fluency Direct speech-enables EHRs and other clinical documentation systems, radiology information systems (RIS), and picture archive and communication systems (PACS) by speech enabling actions you would normally use the keyboard and mouse to do. Speech enablement makes “dollars and sense.” During time-constrained patient encounters, physicians can efficiently capture a more complete patient story, which leads to:

• Improved quality of patient care during and immediately after the initial visit – Less time keyboarding, more time analyzing and communicating with the patient instead of with systems. Physicians can plug in a microphone, log-in and verbally annotate story details and care directives as time permits. This increases the physicians’ ability to stay on schedule and to capture thought processes that continue to unfold after the patient leaves the facility.

• Use free-form, “unstructured” narrative to improve documentation quality, coding accuracy and patient care. This goldmine of information figuratively “falls to the exam room floor” because it is difficult to quickly capture in EHR systems. Capture that “gold” and you allow medical transcriptionists, coders, and radiologists to swiftly resolve questions as they refine and add to the patient story.

• Improved collaboration with consulting physicians. With access to the complete patient story, receiving physicians can deliver the same or better quality of care faster, and both physicians have more time in their schedules to devote to live patient encounters. Receiving physicians can be provided complete transcripts, rather than missing critical information or depending on intermediaries to fill in critical information gaps.

EHR technology vendors — including M*Modal Partners — are embracing our technology to speech-enable their products and increase their product adoption rates. M*Modal Fluency Direct serves as a remedy for “EHR-resistant” physicians as well as facilitating improved clinical documentation and other organizational benefits for ACOs and other emerging forms of coordinated care.
