Kluck, however, was facing a number of difficult problems with the improvement phase of the project.

Voice recognition cannot be solely relied upon to produce accurate reports. Some healthcare professionals have made the change to voice recognition software, using the medical transcriptionist to edit or proofread the report. In numerous cases, the physician realized the amount of errors made by the voice recognition software was decreasing efficiency and thus reverted to using the traditional medical transcriptionist. Until this software is proven to be 100% accurate, it should not have a major effect on the need for transcriptionists. After all, errors in medical reports can lead not only to lost time, lost profits, and an increase in litigation, but more importantly to poor decision making in patient…
