3M Health Information Systems has released 3M™ Mobile Dictation Software on the iPhone® platform, giving physicians greater control over their dictation workflow. The advanced mobile application, also available on the BlackBerry® and Windows Mobile® platforms, offers physicians the freedom of using a single device for phone, email, and dictation, and provides “anytime, anywhere” access via Wi-Fi or 3G wireless service.
Using 3M Mobile Dictation, physicians can dictate notes, view patient lists, and display current patient information on the smartphone screen, saving time and freeing them to focus on patient care. The software provides always-on connectivity, eliminating the need to synchronize smartphones to a dictation system, and is enhanced with a full range of security features that fulfill HIPAA and hospital-specific guidelines for encryption and authentication.
“Our clients are looking for tools and technology that make workflow processes much more efficient,” said Ray Terrill, senior vice president, 3M Health Information Systems. “By expanding our dictation, transcription, and speech recognition solutions to new mobile platforms such as the iPhone, we’re demonstrating our commitment to helping clients improve provider satisfaction and reduce transcription costs and turnaround times.”
3M Mobile Dictation leverages industry-leading technologies to capture and securely transmit digital dictation files to be transcribed and routed to the hospital information system, electronic medical record or practice management system. The software, a module of the 3M™ Mobile Documentation System, integrates with major hospital dictation and transcription solutions, including 3M™ ChartScript™ Software and 3M™ VoiceScript™ Software. Superior sound quality allows seamless integration with speech recognition applications, including 3M™ SyncStream Intelligent Language Processing Software.
