PowerSearch for instant patient look up

Simply type in the patient’s name or an identifier and patient details held on the hospital’s PAS are automatically displayed for the clinicians convenience, while also enhancing patient safety.

Templates to simplify document production

Preloaded templates are launched when the clinician starts a clinical letter. The solution also manages content, pre-populating fields with hospital, patient and GP details.

Digital Dictation straight from the patient list

Our clinical correspondence solution enables clinicians to record and send dictations using Winscribe's advanced dictation workflow technology. Automatically, a patient’s name and ID are inserted into the dictation system, avoiding misidentification by both clinicians and typists. Once dictations are recorded and submitted the dictation system's workflow controls and instantly transfers dictations to the correct typist or typing group.
