Medical Transcribing plays a crucial role within health systems throughout the world, creating a written record of medical examinations and other procedures. The importance of a good medical transcript is extraordinary, demanding levels of accuracy approaching perfection. On the surface it would seem that technology should be able to automate medical reporting tasks. However, the adoption of new technology-based techniques has been limited because the medical record must be text-based and highly precise. For over 50 years, medical dictation has relied on a system of recording the health care provider’s voice and using a transcription service to convert the voice dictation record captured during a health encounter into text. After the exam or procedure, the transcription service manually transcribes the record from the dictaphone recording.

Now, you can use computer voice recognition to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of a health care provider by reducing the manually intensive and expensive process of transferring dictations of medical procedures and exams from audio files into digital or text records without outside transcription services. Due to an increase in computing power, personal computer can now run voice recognition software using advanced processing techniques can achieve near 100% accuracy. The health care provider can now use this powerful technology and combine the efficiency of voice recording with the ability to convert the recorded file on his PC later. Called “voice writing”, this method is derived from the method of dictating where the reporter would dictate into a telephone which was connected to an analog tape recorder then have an outside service transcript from that recording after the fact. Voice writing employs the same technique only the telephone is connected to a computer which utilizes voice recognition software. Voice writing allows the user to record his/her own recorded speech into text. After the transcription occurs on the computer, the user can edit the report to make sure it accurately reflects their intent. This saves costs and contributes to a more accurate and timely record.
