Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 Feature Highlights

• Faster and 22% More Accurate than previous version! Dragon Medical Practice Edition lets clinicians use a narrative format to dictate the elements of a patient encounter.  This software will actually learn your particular speech patterns, including a variety of accents, to ensure the best speech recognition possible.
• EMR/EMH Integration. Physicians who use Dragon Medical Practice Edition report that it makes the practice of medicine more enjoyable, drastically reducing time required to capture notes within the EMR/EHR system.  This software runs in the background – simply point and click in the patient record, then dictate in your own words, up to 160 per minute!  Create robust, meaningful notes that truly capture the patient encounter, rather than the “cookie-cutter” templates.
• Smart configuration. Detects any hardware configuration and recommends how to setup for optimal experience. This includes automatic detection of poor audio input to ensure you’re microphone is not affecting speech recognition accuracy.

This bundles include the PowerMic III with a 3′ cord.  This microphone is designed by Nuance, creator of Dragon Medical Practice Edition.  It is a noise canceling handheld mic that improves dictation by allowing users to assign Dragon functions and personal commands to PowerMic buttons.  You will see an immediate increase in the speed of maneuvering through an EMR, Templates or document management system.

• Dictate at up to 160 words per minute with 99% accuracy. Dragon Medical Practice Edition is 15% more accurate out-of-the-box than Dragon Medical 10.1
• Automatic Resource Identification: Dragon Medical Practice Edition runs on a number of different types of computers, including netbooks, tablets, desktops, laptops and high-powered servers. The software automatically detects hardware resources and sets up the recommended configuration. Its state-of-the-art technology takes advantage of advances in hardware and runs in multiple-threads automatically when multi-core hardware is detected, to achieve better recognition performance.
• Hardware & System Alerts: Generally misrecognitions are a result of poor audio quality caused by faulty microphones or improper use of a microphone, ambient noises, and battery issues. Dragon Medical Practice Edition will automatically detect poor audio input; then alert the user and offers user’s possible solutions to correct the issue.
• Recognition Speed: Dragon Medical Practice Edition significantly improves recognition response time. The software is also faster than previous editions when selecting application menu items by voice, or executing voice commands that perform actions within applications.
• Keyboard-based Corrections: In the past, corrections entered using the keyboard didn’t improve the user’s speech profile, which was a bummer. That is no longer the case, now when a user dictates something and makes a correction using his/her keyboard, those corrections will update the user profile to prevent it from happening again.
• New Sidebar: A major enhancement over Dragon Medical 10’s Sample Commands window, this new desktop assistant allows users to discover and remember many commands and tips; at any time, it lets you glance at, or explore, global commands (including mouse commands), application-specific commands and custom-created commands, as well as tips. Its content changes depending on what window is currently active. In addition, the Sidebar lets users print its content.
• New User Wizard: Now creating a new profile is even easier than before. The user profile creation wizard has been redesigned to be simple and conversational. The new menu directs you every step of the way. Help Menu & Tutorial Videos: The New help menu has several new items and illustrations, short videos, and other tools to help users master Dragon Medical Practice Edition.
• Controlling your Computer: Dragon Medical Practice Edition now supports more voice commands to show common Windows elements, including the desktop and Control Panel, or folders such as My Documents and My Pictures. Playback Enhancements: You can now set the software to fast-forward, rewind, increase the volume and speech putting the user in the driver seat.
• Optimized Digital Voice Recorders Support: A dream come true! Dragon Medical Practice Edition has reduced the training time for dictation devices from 15 to 4 minutes.
