Imprivata Cortext secure communications
platform integrates with Nuance Dragon Medical One to make secure
messaging and texting of physician orders easy through speech
Imprivata® (NYSE: IMPR), the healthcare IT security company,
today announced that Imprivata Cortext®, the secure communications
platform, now supports clinical speech recognition through the
Nuance Dragon® Medical One cloud platform. Using Dragon Medical
embedded in Imprivata Cortext, healthcare providers can speed the
input of accurate, high context patient care communications,
including orders, by allowing physicians to say what they mean. The
Joint Commission, which accredits most U.S. hospitals, recently
lifted the ban on texting orders as long as licensed practitioners
meet specific criteria that are under review until September.
“Clinicians want technology that is easy to use and that gives
them more time back in their day to spend with patients,” said Ed
Gaudet, General Manager for the Imprivata Cortext Product Line. “By
assuring that complex medical terminology is recognized quickly and
accurately, and communicated securely from anywhere, speech to text
functionality greatly improves clinician productivity and therefore
benefits patients and the entire healthcare enterprise.”
Dragon Medical embedded in Imprivata Cortext offers a seamless,
secure, and professional-grade voice experience through a
speaker-adaptive engine, custom vocabularies, auto-texts and
templates, built-in visualization and feedback, voice navigation
and correction, and anytime, anywhere access. This delivers a
single, personalized, and consistent experience as clinicians move
between the desktop, web, and mobile devices and across the EHR and
mobile productivity apps. With a robust medical dictionary and
specialty language models designed for healthcare, providers can
speak at their own pace and dictate the latest medical terms and
phrases at more than 150 words per minute.
“We’re excited about the productivity and financial benefits
that physicians will receive from tying Dragon Medical One into our
Imprivata Cortext application for secure communications,” said John
Lucabaugh, Vice President, Health Information Management at Summit
Health. “Our goal is to give back critical time to our providers
who are extremely busy with everything they have to do, so that
they can care for their patients.”
“Physicians spend 43% of their workday on documentation and they
are increasingly frustrated with how it cuts into their time,” said
Peter Mahoney, Senior Vice President and General Manager of
Clinical Documentation, Nuance. “Up to 500,000 clinicians use
Nuance healthcare solutions to speak their notes today and it’s
safe to bet most are already using a mobile device to text while at
work. Bringing those two natural habits and technologies together
in a safe, secure approach fits their workflow and benefits both
physicians and patients.”
Named the 2015/2016 Category Leader for Secure Messaging by KLAS
and endorsed for secure messaging by the American Hospital
Association, Imprivata Cortext is the secure
communications platform for healthcare that facilitates care
coordination by allowing physicians, nurses, and patients to
connect, communicate, and collaborate securely from any workstation
or mobile device.
