Oh good gravy, can you believe they say the first report had 75% accuracy like that is a good thing? One word out of 4 totally wrong. Wonder how long the docs are going to be happy with this wonderful implementation? Oh yeah, right, for just as long as they can pay their ex-MTs half the money to spend longer editing the crap than it would take them to transcribe it. The more things change...
Yep, that is exactly what they said. As my husband would say, "who slipped up and fed that guy some kudzu?"
But I liked one of the others a little further on down there ...
The "Best practices fairy" piece! I swear, that sounds like something I would come up with ...
The Best-Practice Fairy is back with a fascinating article by Jeff Kelly on successful speech recognition implementation. No doubt that Mr. Kelly knows what he is talking about: before joining Inland Imaging, a 60-member private radiology group in Spokane, WA, as director of clinical applications, he used to perform RIS market analysis and consulting work for MedQuist on voice recognition implementation. As Kelly puts it in a 2007 AuntMinnie article, one question - “What’s in it for me?” - is the key to a speech recognition project’s success. His article sheds the most promising light on the implementation brain-teaser. Here are a few soothing extracts:
Y'all will just have to go read those "soothing extracts" for yourselves, I am still chuckling too hard to block and copy some of them. I swear, can't y'all just feel the Best Practices Fairy parody bubbling up inside me?
