DATABASE ENTRY AND RETRIEVAL BY VOICE
|
Many businesses and professions rely on databases to keep track of their clientele, orders, items of information, etc. Sometimes
they use proprietary database applications - with which Dragon can often be made to work - but other times they want to organize
specific data - contact information, for example, or codes - that don't really require an entire application, but do require some
orderliness and ease of entry and retrieval.
That's where we can help. Using Access, data contained in databases can be entered and retrieved entirely by voice. Not only can
you summon up a needed item of information in the middle of completing a document, but you can arrange to have the database
updated by whatever new information you supply in completing your document. This is ideal for, say, probation officers who see the
same person week after week: not only can the form be prepopulated with last week's information, but restitution records, for
example, can be continually updated.
Information contained in the database can also be used to automate forms. For instance, if you are a mental health practitioner and
have developed treatment goals for your client, those goals can appear automatically in the dialog boxes you use to complete your
progress notes. If you're an insurance adjuster, the inventory list you enter into the database can be made to appear automatically
in the dialog boxes you later use to enter the age, replacement value, and ACV for each item.
Take a look at the examples below and consider how much easier they could make your life. Don't be dissuaded by the fact that
they refer to medical or legal implementations: a database is a database is a database, and whether the data consist of doctors'
names, soil specimens, diagnostic codes, or measurements is immaterial. We can even database-ize your enemies' list if you'd like.
FIND CONTACTS
Whether it's a referring physician, another attorney, or a client's name, you can plug in just the last name and have the whole
name and address print directly into your document exactly where you want it - all by voice.
ADD, MODIFY, AND DELETE RECORDS BY VOICE
With this, you can manage your database entirely by voice, no matter what kind of data you have stored in it.
This database keeps track of treatment goals for patients in group therapy. Every new patient gets a
record in the database, based on name and DOB. Goals specified herein then appear in the dialog boxes
used to complete patient records, where progress toward them is documented. Goals can be added to or
deleted as wished.
When you want to modify a record, usually just the last name is enough. But if there's more than one
person listed under that surname, the list of available choices is presented and you are asked to select
the correct one.
In this dialog box, the goals specified in the record are used as part of the clinical record.
Almost any information captured in a database can be used to individualize other document-creation processes.
FIND CODES
Databases are a terrific way to handle codes - ICD-9 codes, DSM-IV codes, statute codes, UCR codes... whatever.
Need a code in the middle of your document? Just use a single search-term and not only can you find what you
need, Dragon will put in the appropriate numbers once you've chosen the words. (Even people who type well have
trouble with numbers.)
DSM-IV codes summoned by the keyword "schizophrenia"
ICD-9 codes called up by entering the keyword "meningitis."
Criminal statutes (NJ) summoned by entering the keyword "weapon.".......
.......and entered into the following dialog box.
