Eh ... It's not as time-saving as you would think, b/c each case is sort of different, but for early stage breast and prostates, you could potentially save some time. With Dragon and other voice-recognition software, there is some benefit to pre-made templates that you flip from field to field with, but after dictating 1000 early stage breast and prostate follow-ups, nothing is really faster than just ripping through the dictation. For consults, maybe nice to have toxicities, rationale for treatment, consent/sim information, and thank you to referring doc/siggy on template, but seriously, the pre-made stuff hasn't really sped me up.
Does anyone have any software or program that you feel is faster than just ripping through a dictation? We're transitioning away from transcription to Dragon and no matter what I do, it's slower to do Dragon than to dictate, but I guess I don't have to do the revision, so it might be a wash.
