The 2009 eScription customer Million Dollar Award recipients were given special recognition by Nuance (News - Alert) during the eScription user meeting held at Boston recently. The event also saw two organizations Washington County Health System and Vista Health System receiving the annual productivity award.

 

Nuance Communications is a provider of speech and imaging solutions for businesses and consumers around the world.

 

Each year, eScription recognizes healthcare provider organizations that achieve 125 percent or greater productivity gains, as well as those organizations that demonstrate savings of at least one million dollars or that reach a new level of million dollar savings using its on-demand computer aided medical transcription (CAMT) solution.

 

The eScription on-demand, enterprise-wide CAMT platform is an integrated background speech recognition solution designed to streamline clinical documentation for the large healthcare enterprise, and fully integrate with the EMR. Organizations can double their productivity using eScription with little to no impact on physician workflow.

 

The eScriptions Million Dollar Club was able to yield more than $93 million in transcription cost savings for the healthcare industry this year. And the members agree that eScriptions is helping them improve their organization’s capabilities in terms of managing cost, workflow process and turnaround time.

 

Nuance has stated that the healthcare industry like any other industry in the country is trying to identify and apply cost saving measures at this time of a troubled economy and this year, their customers reached remarkable new levels of productivity gains and cost savings, bringing the eScription Million Dollar Club to surpass $93 million in total savings for the healthcare industry.

 

Nuance is proud of its customers’ achievements and with more than 100 organizations across the U.S. that have now replaced traditional transcription with eScription CAMT, they are thrilled at the prospect of delivering even greater efficiencies and savings in the years to come.
