SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DrChrono Inc., the company enabling the medical practice of the future, just announced the availability of Chart by Voice for the iPad EHR app. This new feature provides voice command for hands-free charting. DrChrono will demo the new offering for the first time at the American Psychiatric Association (APA) Annual Meeting taking place May 18-22, 2019 at Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco at booth #1136.
DrChrono’s Chart by Voice speech-to-text module now enables clinicians to easily maneuver through a patient’s chart and quickly transcribe clinical notes by voice command in the EHR. This new feature provides a more streamlined experience for patient encounters as well as faster charting. For example, clinicians can now use voice commands such as “next field” to switch to the next field or say, “next paragraph” to add a line break instead of manually tapping on the screen. Clinicians can ask in the EHR app for example “What can I say?” and a glossary will appear with all voice commands available.
“Chart by Voice is beneficial especially to the field of psychiatry allowing the physician to talk directly into our iPad EHR app to chart as an alternative to having to type in the information, providing a more hands-off device experience,” said Daniel Kivatinos, Co-Founder and COO of DrChrono. “Our goal at DrChrono is to continually develop new features and functionality that can enhance patient and physician interactions.”
