Voice Technologies wins £2m Scottish digital dictation contract
20 March
Hospitals in Scotland now no longer need to go through the
potentially time-consuming and costly tender process to set up digital
dictation or speech recognition systems.
Healthcare digital dictation and speech recognition integration
experts Voice Technologies have been selected as the supplier for the
National Framework for Scotland by National Services Scotland.
This means implementing these solutions has become significantly
easier. Services available for through the National Framework do not
need to be tendered for, making procurement processes simpler and
cheaper.
Voice Technologies were selected above numerous other providers
because of their proven track record in deploying successful systems in
NHS trusts across Scotland, developing innovative solutions, delivering
tangible improvements through their commitment to customisation and
extensive customer support.
Digital dictation and speech recognition can deliver significant
savings and create efficiencies in healthcare. These technologies are
helping medical teams to improve turnaround times, become more
efficient, reduce costs and, as a consequence, get results to patients
sooner.
Heather Wylie, Managing Director of Voice Technologies, commented:
“Voice Technologies can now help hospitals and clinics take advantage of
the efficiencies that speech recognition and digital dictation deliver
faster than ever before. We’re pleased that our commitment to improving
healthcare has been recognised: a welcome addition to the previous
awards we have received for innovation and customer service.
This contract has a projected value of over £2 million, and competing
against international firms to keep this contract in Scotland has
assured us of one thing: that our innovative solutions will help bring
about reductions in waiting times and helping patients to get their
results sooner.”
