| 20100179852 | EMR Template for Workflow Management and Workflow Information Capture - A new and useful EMR template functionality for workflow management and workflow information capture is provided. The EMR template functionality is configured with the following characteristics; (a) user configurable workflow specific structured language options, (b) the ability to be kept open to changes and new inputs across the process to which the template refers, (c) the ability to enable selection of a user or user group as a responsible actor in the workflow, (d) the capability to distinguish the template from all other templates (without described workflow functionality) associated with the EMR, and (e) workflow specific searchable data fields. Thus, the template can be configured not only to provide patient medical information, but also to capture workflow information (e.g. insurance authorization, procedure scheduling, etc.), which enables the EMR to track a patient process over time, with regard, e.g. to the state of the workflow ordered for the patient, and thereby gives a medical office or other treatment environment an effective management tool to manage the medical office or other treatment environment's function and to provide effective patient care. | 07-15-2010 |

The system includes at least one system transaction manager having a “system protocol,” to receive a verified, streamed speech information request from at least one authorized user employing a first legacy user protocol. The speech information request which includes spoken text and system commands is generated using a user interface capable of bi-directional communication with the system transaction manager and supporting dictation applications, including prompts to direct user dictation in response to user system protocol commands and systems transaction manager commands. A speech recognition and/or transcription engine (ASR), in communication with the systems transaction manager, receives the speech information request from the system transaction manager, generates a transcribed response, which can include a formatted transcription, and transmits the response to the system transaction manager. The system transaction manager routes the response to one or more of the users employing a second protocol, which may be the same as or different than the first protocol. In another embodiment, the system employs a virtual sound driver for streaming free form dictation to any ASR, regardless of the ASR's ability to recognize and/or transcribe spoken text from any input source such as, for example, a live microphone or line input. In another embodiment, the system employs a buffer to facilitate the system's use of ASRs requiring input data to be in batches, while providing the user with an uninterrupted, seamless dictating experience. | 09-15-2011 |
