Webmedx Announces Industry's Only Physician-Centric Clinical Documentation Solution

Grapevine, TX /PRNewswire/ -- Webmedx, the fourth largest medical transcription service provider in the U.S. and the only leading company to employ a 100% domestic workforce, today announced the release of their latest physician documentation technology and service platform, Enterprise5. Sean Carroll, company CEO, announced the availability of Enterprise5 to a select group of customers and guests during a private reception at the American Health Information Management Association's 81st Annual Convention and Exhibition in Grapevine, Texas.

Enterprise5 enables hospitals and clinics to drive greater value out of their speech, voice and transcription investments while advancing EHR adoption. A web-native system for transcription and EHR content management, Enterprise5 offers a complete, end-to-end solution for physician documentation. The new platform encompasses all of Webmedx's existing transcription technology and services, while adding new capabilities for front-end speech recognition, data mining, quality analytics, revenue analytics and clinical documentation improvement (CDI).

Enterprise5 gives physicians several options including a hybrid blend of free text, once-and-done voice capture or intelligent speech recognition. "Regardless of the input method, we're able to abstract discrete data from the narrative reports for EHR fulfillment, core measures reporting and other downstream functions," mentions Carroll. Termed "narradata" by the company, the discrete data abstracted from narrative transcription and tagged by Webmedx can also be used to correlate with clinical documentation and compliance improvements.

Documentation outcomes are analyzed and recommendations for improvement sent back to the CDI team; creating the industry's first closed loop clinical documentation process. Physician coaches work in conjunction with electronic reminders to help doctors improve documentation at the point of dictation or voice capture resulting in improved case mix, increased MS-DRG payments by 4-15%, and better quality scores.
