Nebraska Medicine links voice technology to Epic EHR, boosts physician performance

Nebraska Medicine operates two hospitals with more than 1,000 physicians, 809 licensed hospital beds and 40 specialty and primary care clinics in and around Omaha, Nebraska. The health system has been on the Epic electronic health record system since 2009. Using Epic simplified the process of creating and managing patient files, but Nebraska Medicine physicians still spent a good deal of their time adding patient information into the EHR, due in part to the need to be located at workstations to manually input patient notes. There was general dissatisfaction with the clinical documentation process and the time and effort required to complete patient documentation. The health system began looking for a more proactive approach to tackling the quality of care and clinical documentation requirements. Physicians also expressed the desire for mobility to be able to complete their documentation from anywhere, anytime.
