(EHR Scope – December 11, 2010) – Frisbee Pro® is a new transcription workflow solution that has just been released in North America. What makes this module so interesting is that it is integrated with speech recognition technology. The software experienced success in its original EU market, with major clients such as The United Nations (UN Offices at Geneva), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and multinationals ING and William Fry. The detailed customization of the author and transcriptionist profiles, for multiple workflows, is the key to Frisbee’s initial success. There are infinite possibilities for author and transcriptionist messaging profiles: one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to one and many-to-many. Moreover, as a fully HIPAA and HL7 compliant solution, making its debut in the midst of the ARRA EHR Stimulus and Healthcare Information Technology (HIT) reform, Frisbee’s timing could not have been better.
Those familiar with 1450, Inc.’s ® involvement in speech recognition, specifically Nuance’s Dragon® Medical software already have an understanding regarding the various advantages and benefits of incorporating speech recognition and speech to text conversion through the dictation workflow. Once dictation output files have been recorded, setting up a functional inter-office program of file storage, editing and records maintenance can be a nightmare. The costs of bad claims data due to a dysfunctional or lagged transcription workflow are self evident. No RCM solution is going to replace non-existent or lost data from a bad transcription workflow.
If you are not using speech recognition software like Dragon, still dictating to tape or phoning it in, you will be pleasantly surprised that there is an integrated workflow solution that finally makes it worthwhile to take the plunge into speech recognition. The interfaces are adaptive to even the most geographically fragmented physicians, healthcare providers, and practice managers. Transfer options are not limited to network intranets and individual client workstations either. Doctors can dictate with a Smartphone and have the messages sent back to any number of offices, hospitals or a home computer, as long as the software is installed and configured properly. This new mobile flexibility maximizes the utility of speech recognition and keeps your files and transcription jobs at ready access, providing users with discretion and designation of priority. The cost savings and informational control are far beyond previous transcription methods. The real techie docs are going to be all over this one. They even have a Frisbee® iPhone app .
The file transfers are not just for dictation audio either. Large file format transfers for reporting, including hefty imaging files, can be transferred with this software as well. Certainly if you are planning on running a modular EHR setup to get your stimulus check this type of solution should be a layer of your completed EHR platform. Even most of the ONC-ATCB meaningful use certified complete solutions could be improved with the addition of Frisbee Pro. With Frisbee Pro in place, network based Inter-office communications are HIPAA compliant and large imaging laden reports could be passed around the office with ease.
And of course with the EHR boom at hand, Frisbee Pro® is HL7 compatible so it is adaptable to some EHR systems as a modular solution. Legal professionals are also happy here because it meets their industry security standards. Give Frisbee a look and see if Frisbee Pro is a solution for your EHR or office ecology.
