Can the advantages of clinical voice-AI speech recognition technology help reduce DTOC?
DTOC is not just another step in the patient journey, but crucial to care outcomes. Since 2014 the rate of delayed transfers has continued to rise. Can technology built to make HC more efficient, influence DTOCs and NHS’ ability to deal with them?
Why speed is key to improving patient journeys and diagnostics –
With growing waiting lists, strict government targets, and increased demand, everyone involved in diagnostics is under pressure to work faster. But efficiency and speed are also vital to improving the most important thing of all: patient journeys and their outcomes.
The symbiosis of technology in diagnostic reporting…
Pathology as a critical department on the path to diagnosis and treatment, has a vital role to play in simplifying and improving the patient journey;
but with structured reporting, restrictive workflows, and legacy technology, unlocking mobility, efficiency and accuracy is proving to be a significant challenge.
Why reporting from anywhere is the future of radiology
Technology has a vital role to play as the radiology profession continues to recover from the impact of the pandemic, workforce shortages, backlogs and changing ways of working. The cloud will be key in maximising productivity gains as radiologists and Trusts look for more efficient ways of working.
How integrated speech drives Radiologists’ performance
Speech recognition empowers radiologists to work more accurately, efficiently and deliver a higher quality of reporting. But unlocking these considerable performance benefits is only possible when a speech recognition solution is deeply integrated with how radiology departments want to work.
The costs of risk and errors in radiology reporting
While next generation speech recognition has the potential to further transform radiology, no change comes without some degree of cost and complexity. But with rising backlogs, a culture of litigation, and growing risk for radiologists in the UK, the costs of doing nothing could be significantly greater.
The role of SR in radiology security, risk & compliance
Adopting any new technology is a cautious process for many, balancing the wellbeing of radiologists with the needs of patients and concerns over privacy and risk. However, modern, next-gen speech recognition not only delivers compliance, but can de-risk the way you already create and manage reports.
Why efficiency is key to raising standards in radiology
Making radiology more efficient – without compromising data and reporting accuracy – is a vital step in addressing staff shortages and spiralling backlogs. But it is also a way for radiology to begin to build a healthier future for the sector and a way to raise standards in patient care for the long-term.
Can voice-driven AI speech recognition ease the impact of understaffing in radiology?
A five-point guide to radiology workplace efficiency, morale and staff retention.
Making accurate reporting the core of radiology
New SR is driving accuracy and informed decisions across radiology, addressing the challenges caused by staff shortages and the pandemic.
