But so what? VR is forced down our throats by the hospitals ('or shall we put your contract out for bid?'). Can this possibly change unless we (radiologists) are willing to pay for our own transcriptionists?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05308302714348329643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10485390.post-50899665561805086802009-04-24T18:54:00.000-04:002009-04-24T18:54:00.000-04:00I'm one of Dr. Marcovici's resident colleagues at ...I'm one of Dr. Marcovici's resident colleagues at UCSD and wholeheartedly agree with all of his comments. Speech recognition software seems to be particularly prevalent at academic centers (for obvious reasons, it is a lot cheaper to keep a resident after hours doing corrections than pay a transcriptionist). I fear SR/VR is creating an entire generation of residents who are A. less educated (they spend all their time transcribing, not looking at the studies or reading) and B. can't dictate on their own without a template someone else has created for them. Thank God 1 of the institutions we rotate through uses good ole transcriptionists so we won't dictate like complete fools when we finish our training.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10485390.post-31745685112521202042009-04-16T19:46:00.000-04:002009-04-16T19:46:00.000-04:00Dr Dalai,

Will they eventually become proof readers or will Speech Rec flop amongst most Rad's and keep the perpetual machine going as it is today?<br /><br />ThanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
