Spend less of the day typing notes
Speaking a note is faster than typing it, and WriteVoice returns it with punctuation, paragraphs, and lists already in place.
A note started on an iPhone between rooms can be finished on a Mac at the desk, since everything syncs.
WriteVoice is a dictation tool, not an ambient scribe, so you decide what goes into the note and review it before you sign.
Primary care physicians at two Boston academic hospitals spent a median 36.2 minutes in the EHR per visit, 6.2 of them after hours. See the physician burnout statistics
