Dictation Recorders for Dragon Medical One + SpeechLive →
Dragon creates the text. Your clinical team remains in control.
Speech recognition does not have to remove the medical secretary, typist or clinician from the documentation process.
When SpeechLive sends dictation to Dragon, it transcribes the recorded dictation in the background; the original audio remains available with the recognised text, so the document can be reviewed against what the doctor actually said.

Your doctors don't all have to document the same way.
SpeechLive lets a medical practice support different documentation preferences without deploying completely separate systems for every user.
