EMR Transcription | Speech Recognition | Remote Scribing | Dictation
Did you know that internists spend more time documenting in their EHR than nearly all other healthcare practitioners? That's right. Internal medicine doctors spend approximately 18-22 minutes charting each patient encounter in their EHR, according to a 2020 study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine. How much time do you spend in your EHR?
Many providers look at patient charting as a huge time suck, and it is. While keeping patient notes is essential to quality patient care, it can distract from delivering care when not handled well. Plus, detailed notes are crucial to maximizing reimbursement. Of course, accurate medical records help caregivers stay prepared for a medical record audit and help defend against malpractice claims. Still, it doesn’t have to be so hard.
If you're taking charting work home to finish outside the office, there is a better way. Athreon has been providing speech-to-text solutions to internists for more than 30 years. Our solutions help internal medicine doctors work more productively and establish a healthier work-life balance. Our advanced internal medicine documentation solutions include dictation, speech recognition, and medical scribing.
We've worked with many EHRs over the years, and there's a good chance we've worked with yours. Some of the EHRs popular among our internal medicine transcription clients include:
Even if we haven't listed your EHR, it's not a problem because Athreon is EHR agnostic. No matter your EHR, our internal medicine typing service can work with it and return your narratives directly to your electronic health record. Our EMR transcription service can also work with your EHR vendor to exchange data automatically.
What’s more, we provide the most popular dictation-capture options like telephone dictation, smartphone dictation, and digital recorder dictation. Our free mobile apps for iOS and Android devices mean you can dictate using your cell phone or tablet.
We also offer internal medicine speech recognition technology with VoiceNote. Or, if you'd like to have a live or asynchronous remote medical scribe assist you, our AxiScribe medical scribe option can help. No matter your speech-to-text preferences, Athreon has you covered.
Another advantage of outsourcing to our internal medicine scribe company is that it's far less costly than hiring an in-house charting specialist to handle your data entry. Outsourcing reduces employment expenses associated with your payroll, health benefits, office space, technology costs, and more. Plus, you can reduce your hours spent in the office or even expand your practice with dictation. The efficiency gained means more savings and a better work-life balance!
