Found at comments on LinkedIn,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object],®,[object Object],We read the question:                          ,[object Object],Are EMR/EHR Really Cutting Down Transcription Cost/Jobs??,[object Object],Many think that "EMR/EHR" are simply born with the DNA to cut down transcription cost.,[object Object],Many others think that "EMR/EHR" can be futile to the growth and future of transcription jobs.  ,[object Object],Some others think that it is a combination of the two that makes EHR/EMR a deadly mix... What is your take? ,[object Object],Quotations may be attributed incorrectly.

Are EMR/EHR are really cutting down transcription cost/jobs??,[object Object],Linda Tarkington wrote:,[object Object],Owner at Remote Medical Transcription, Inc.,[object Object],I have lost several clients who have implemented EMR, as well as VR (voice recognition) software. They may have to spend more of their time working with the process, but they would rather save the buck (at least in my experience). ,[object Object],Julie  Weight wrote:,[object Object],Owner at Sole Proprietor,[object Object],I spoke to a friend who is head of transcription at a large university medical center, he informed us that, two years ago, they started rolling out the Epic EMR. Over the last 2 years, their transcription volume has dropped 50% and they expect it to decrease even more. The same thing was witnessed at Kaiser. Their goal is to have no transcriptionists whatsoever. ,[object Object],®,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object]
Andy Braverman wrote:,[object Object],President & CTO at Apptec CorporationEMR/EHR in principal is a great idea. While the purchase of the EMR/EHR software will be initially expensive for the hospital, as long as they implement it right, it should over the long run help improve a person's healthcare continuity. The way to do it right, is for the doctor to dictate just as they have for decades. Dictation is the most efficient use of the doctor's time. The EMR/EHR should only be in front of the doctor to review a patient's records... not to input data into it. For data input into the EMR/EHR, that should be a "back office" task performed by the transcriptionist. All that changes is that instead of typing into Word (or what ever word processor you prefer), the transcriptionist will be typing into the EMR/EHR to click here, and type there. Everybody gets to keep their job... including the hospital administrator who won't get fired for having their doctors type at $200 an hour! ,[object Object],Am I biased about the need to continue to use the "traditional" method of having the doctor's dictate... yes, but for good reason. Not because I continue, as I have for 20 years now, to develop and sell dictation and transcription products, but because I've seen 20 years of "we'll be going SR any day now", and 40 years of "think metric!". I can give you dozens more examples of things that sounded great, but once shown the "light of day", their great promise quickly fades away.,[object Object]
Jagan Mohan Muthu wrote:,[object Object],Business Development Executive at TDHS,[object Object],The reason that it would cut down the transcription jobs is the EMRs are developed in such a way that physicians can generate report in just a click away, though it is not the case in all the specialties. ,[object Object],Robin Brewer wrote:,[object Object],Medical Transcriptionist at Preferred Transcription,[object Object],I do transcription for a large cancer hospital. I transcribe some very detailed reports for patients with all types of cancers. There is NO way a click of one button can generate all the individual information that is needed to be reported on each patient. NOT POSSIBLE! These are people's lives we are talking about here and all of their information needs to be documented in detail to make it possible to give them the best treatment that they deserve. ,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object]
Dr. V.V. Pratap Reddy wrote:,[object Object],CEO at Srija Solutions Private Limited ,[object Object],I have seen my clients move in and out of speech recognition software and some gave a trial try of EMR and finally they groaned and grunted. Now the SRS clients are back because in the end they are doing and redoing a work which is neither their primary job nor compensates the quality time lost. Regarding EMR, the best option physicians felt after a trial run was having transcription integrated or get it copy pasted into the system than spent on exotic software and ending up in digital nightmare. My experience is the doctors are looking going electronic way but not in a route that cuts into their quality time and ends up in a 'treatment-is-worse-than-disease' situation. I think what I feel is that we are currently passing through is a fluid situation borne out of pulls and counter pulls of different lobbying groups , might take some time to whittle down. Sadly, the central players - 'Doctor & patient' - have become non entities in the sordid drama of powerful lobbies. Can anyone answer me conscientiously; Does anybody really interested in cost reduction of healthcare? If its is really cared, I would have gone for a open-sourced, inter operable national repository of EMR which can be accessed at a fraction of cost by doctors or other parties to the issue. Why, it was not done? That shows the true intentions. So, Honey, it’s all money over there at Capitol Hill. ,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object]
Cathy Leahy wrote:,[object Object],Service Owner at Datamed Medical Transcription,[object Object],If a doctor loses just one minute of productive time, he looses big money. The government incentives won't make up for the loss. Also, the former head of ONC says they will either be deferred or eliminated altogether. All this new fangled stuff is just some new toys for the kids to play with. The danger here is the transcriptionists are looking for other work and schools are eliminating the transcription programs.,[object Object],Donna Literell wrote:,[object Object],President & CEO, Elite Office Solutions,[object Object],In my own transcription business, I have seen two accounts try to move to EMRs. I asked them the same question, "Isn't your time more productively spent seeing patients than typing?" We have had both accounts try EMRs and then come back to us because the physicians hated it and as you said, they realized they were losing money. For one account, we are actually copying-and-pasting into their EMR (because their platform does not have very good tools for transcription), so it's almost double the work, but the doctors realized how insane it was for them to be wasting their time doing what we do. ,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object]
FarkhruddinKamdar wrote:,[object Object],Managing Partner at K-SCRIBES INDIA ,[object Object],The simple logic is, an average human brain thinks faster than a super computer, so if us humans have difficulty working out accents and sounds, how can we expect a computer to. The counter to this somebody told me was that now there are software's  programmed to mimic the human brain in what ever function they are designed to perform (read Prey by Michael Crichton), but I still believe it will take any program ages to make identify the difference between native accents. (A sizeable percentage of physicians in the U.S. are non-natives). EMR/EHR as Andy said is already facing a lot of resistance as far as Doctors using them is concerned, so that is not a very real threat anyways. ,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object]
Lindsay Colorado wrote:,[object Object],Student at MTEC,[object Object],Not to mention but clicking boxes the physician's would be seeing patients as even less of an individual case-by-case basis and more of a group or subgroup. One can’t imagine the number of symptoms that would be missed because of the computer screen skipping steps based on the boxes checked. If this EMR is becoming part of the med student's program in school, they are probably trying to train doctors early on to be comfortable with this software? ,[object Object],RanjanRawat wrote:,[object Object],Operations at Acroseas Consultancy Pvt. Ltd.,[object Object],There is a lot of anxiety within the Medical Transcription industry about the popularity of Speech Recognition and how its going to take away our business.There are scores of different accents, and it takes time even for a human transcriptionist to get accustomed to it. And to the untrained ear, the voice would make very little sense. That kind of Speech Recognition technology would take years to develop if at all it does. ,[object Object],http://bit.ly/acroseas,[object Object]
