FLEXIBILITY FOR PHYSICIANS
MEETING REAL-WORLD DOCUMENTATION CHALLENGES

THE SCENARIO

The Emergency unit at a Boston-based women’s healthcare organization experienced marginalized patient satisfaction due to the physician’s focus on EHR reporting requirements.

THE SOLUTION

Terra Nova partners with hospitals to outsource their transcription services so they can relieve physicians from data entry, ensure all meaningful patient care information is captured, and deliver timely records to foster ongoing care and support. Using outsourced medical transcription services can result in a dramatic increase in patient visits per day – often by at least 20% (although the percentage varied by specialty). Direct per-encounter patient contact time typically increases by about 20% as well. In addition, without the multitasking and distractions that come with computer data entry, direct patient interaction time may double, contributing to improved patient satisfaction scores.

THE SCENARIO

An acute care facility in Toronto experienced a significant increase in dictation over a period of six months and was challenged to hire additional in-house transcriptionists to meet the spike in volume. Dictation backlog quickly became an issue in delivering patient care.

THE SOLUTION

Terra Nova was contracted to assist in overflow transcription. Clearing up the backlog over just a few weeks, the hospital recognized that this partnership would ensure improved efficiency in document workflow and ease the management of HR in terms of recruiting and training. The partnership ensures that turnaround time is met, and patient care is never compromised.
