Leaders in Healthcare Partner with Nuance for Enterprise-Wide Clinical
Speech Recognition Solutions
Proven Results and Expanded Portfolio Capabilities Drive Customer Adoption;
HIMSS 2012 to Showcase Advancements to Voice, Clinical Language
Understanding, and Mobile Solutions from Nuance
LAS VEGAS, HIMSS 2012, Booth #3523, February, 21, 2012 – From HIMSS 2012, Nuance
Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: NUAN) announces preeminent new healthcare customers and
expanded deployments of its industry-leading, clinical speech recognition solutions. Supporting
the needs and preferences of more than 450,000 healthcare providers across more than 10,000
institutions, Nuance’s healthcare portfolio of voice and clinical language understanding (CLU)
solutions continues to be recognized as industry standard for the high-quality capture and
intelligent use of clinical information.
Nuance’s healthcare portfolio holds multiple top-ranked positions within the 2011 Best in KLAS
Awards: Software & Services report including eScription, which has been #1 within the speech
recognition category for eight consecutive years, Dragon Medical Practice Edition and
PowerScribe 360 Reporting.
“Nuance has a proven track record in speech recognition. Their longstanding success is nearly
unmatched across the industry, with eScription winning eight consecutive Best in KLAS
Awards,” said Adam Gale, President of KLAS. “Over the past several years, KLAS has watched
Nuance acquire, develop and deliver technologies that continue to automate the clinical
documentation information lifecycle. Customers are excited to share the impact and return on
investment these solutions are having on the clinical documentation process. As the need to turn
disparate medical data into actionable information rise, we expect to see provider demand for
natural language processing or Clinical Language Understanding solutions to also grow. This
creates an exciting opportunity for Nuance.”
Joining the company of leaders in healthcare around the world, organizations including Banner
Health, Carle Foundation Hospital and Physician Group, Carolinas Healthcare System, Catholic
Health Partners, Lafayette General Medical Center, Lancaster General Health, Martin Health
System, Norton Healthcare, Providence Health Plans, Radiologic Associates, PC, Roper St.
Francis Healthcare, Saint Charles Health System, Saint Francis Hospital and Health Centers,
Samaritan Health Services, Singing River Health System, The Valley Hospital, Via Christi
Health and UCSF Medical Center have all partnered with Nuance to empower their clinicians to
document care by simply speaking. Through the delivery of clinical speech recognition solutions
and Nuance Transcription Services, Nuance is helping to make physicians more productive as
part of the clinical documentation process, resulting in better quality notes, improved use of
electronic health record (EHR) systems, and efficiency gains that drive cost savings for the
healthcare enterprise.
Voice of Customer Testimonials
“In December, we expanded Dragon Medical across our healthcare enterprise, enabling 260
providers access to voice-driven, real-time documentation as part of the Epic EHR workflow,”
said Ed Collins, Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Martin Health System. “Dragon
Medical has proved to be an invaluable tool for our clinicians. In fact, the ongoing requests for
Dragon Medical continue and we expect will expand to our nursing staff. With Dragon Medical,
we’ve been able to reduce the cost of medical transcription by two-thirds in the first 60 days, our
medical record turnaround time has gone from 24 hours+ to being instantaneous, our physicians
can leverage voice-powered shortcuts to be more productive, and the quality of our notes has
increased dramatically.”
“We deployed Dragon Medical to over 150 providers across our physicians’ offices and because
of the success we achieved there, will extend Dragon Medical enterprise-wide across our
hospitals,” said Michael Ripchinski, MD, medical director, clinical informatics at Lancaster
General Health. “In Nuance, we see more than a partner for voice recognition; we’re also
intrigued by their progress and innovation in Clinical Language Understanding (CLU)
technologies. Through ongoing work with Nuance, we’re committed to leveraging voice-driven
solutions to optimize the way we document within the EHR, and will explore ways to better
access and interact with our data with CLU-powered solutions.”
Nuance’s voice-enabled, clinical understanding solutions empower healthcare organizations to
capture structured and unstructured clinical data anytime, anywhere with limited disruption to
clinical workflow. Whether a doctor is capturing information from a laptop, desktop, telephone,
through a transcriptionist or through a mobile device, with Nuance Healthcare solutions, the
whole patient story can be captured.
