Q: I have DMPE4 (Dragon Medical Practice Edition 4 or another older version of Dragon Medical) - Should I upgrade to Dragon Medical One?
A: Absolutely (continue reading to find out why).
1) Accuracy
Dragon Medical One has a significantly more accurate speech recognition engine than prior versions of Dragon Medical. This is true not just because it is the latest and most advanced iteration of the Dragon speech engine but also because it's cloud-based architecture is a total game-changer. Built on Microsoft's Azure cloud, Dragon Medical One is able to harness the processing power of the Microsoft Cloud and produce speech recognition accuracy rates that would just not be possible on a standard individual site-based computer.
With Dragon Medical One you can achieve 99% accuracy with no voice profile training required and a single cloud‑based profile that is auto‑established at first use. Manual activities such as accent adjustments and microphone calibration, are now automatic, providing greater accuracy, a lower word error rate, and an optimal clinician experience from the start.
Having an accent may make you sound smarter, more sophisticated, or more worldly but it won't hamper your ability to get accurate dictation out of Dragon Medical One, as it supports Accent Detection which Instantly detects your regional accent for more precise documentation.
2) Portability
Since Dragon Medical One is cloud-based it is easy to use on many devices. There is a small component (Windows program) that gets installed on each computer, this enables the computer to communicate with the Dragon Cloud.
Licensing is per user, not per computer or location-based, which means this software can be installed on as many computers as you like (your office, your exam rooms, your hospital, or nursing home computer where you may have privileges).
Using the included Dragon Anyplace USB stick (exclusive to Med Speech Solutions) you do not even need to install the Windows component on each computer you can just plug the USB stick into a computer and begin using Dragon Medical One.
The Powemic Mobile app allows you to use Dragon Medical One on computers that do not have a microphone attached, as you can use your cell phone (Android or iPhone) as a speech recognition microphone (at no additional cost).
All of these portability options make Dragon Medical One the most versatile version of Dragon yet. These options allow you to take full advantage of the power of Dragon Medical in all your work settings.
3) Simplicity
Dragon Medical One is easy to install and maintain. No complex configurations; clinicians can begin dictating in less than five minutes using your existing infrastructure. Automatic updates mean less work for your IT staff and less hassle for your clinicians.
