Psychiatry transcription

[Village]

Hope you all are having a great holiday season. Am in need of medical transcription services for my psychiatric practice. Anyone worked with a transcription company they can recommend please? Thank you

Dragon professional $150-300 one time fee for software is what I use. I dictate directly into the EMR or if that doesn’t work I dictate into word and paste it into the EMR.

I do the same - I bought Dragon Professional for myself and it works quite well. Even though it's not the official "medical" version, the dictation for most medical terminology is accurate, and for general transcription it's extremely accurate. Cuts down my note writing time significantly.

Thank you. My EHR is Meditab IMS. I have built templates for my notes. So do you copy into different heading tabs that you can copy into future notes ? Do you dictate after ending session with patient ?

I‘ve never heard of that EMR so I have no idea how it works or what’s possible. We use Epic and I work on an inpatient unit, so I do all my notes at the end of the day once I’ve seen all of my patients. I do a mix of typing and dictation - some things are too cumbersome to dictate while others are quite suited to it. If you try it I’m sure you can figure out a system that works for you.

The newest version of word actually has a dictate feature that’s not too bad. It recognized “zyprexa” and “escitalopram”. I use it at one of our clinics that has an ancient EMR and it saves a ton of time.

Yeah I checked that out and it works surprisingly well. Google sheets also has dictation that I imagine works well.

GSuite with google is HIPAA compliant and has a BAA buried in there if you go find it.
Sampled out the google sheets and its built voice to text feature was pretty darn good. Had a lot of drugs I could think to rattle off like lexapro escitalopram zyprexa provigil nuvigil etc.
Haven't searched yet to see if it has the Dragon type verbiage "scratch that" "delete that" "quote... end quote"
So far I'm pleased enough I might start using it for formulation / plans, and then just cut/pasting into note.
