Medical University of South Carolina Rolls Out AssistMed Transcription Platform With InterSystems Ensemble

InterSystems Corporation today announced that the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) has implemented the second-generation DictAide medical transcription platform from AssistMed, Inc. AssistMed's solution addresses MUSC's need to reduce costs tied to medical transcription while improving quality and staff productivity. An InterSystems application partner, AssistMed interfaces DictAide with third-party systems using InterSystems Ensemble®, the rapid integration platform named #1 interface engine by KLAS for the past two years.

Ensemble's strengths combined with DictAide's rich feature set—which includes advanced speech recognition, predefined templates, and support for dictation via multiple input devices—allows doctors to trust even further in those all-important transcriptions of patient notes while bustling through their day. The MUSC network presently includes 24 medical and surgical clinics with doctors from all locations providing dictated input that is transcribed by AssistMed and loaded into the Electronic Health Record (EHR) via a bi-directional HL7 interface. “With Ensemble's rapid development and deployment technology, we were able to go live with this interface in just a few weeks after the project started,” Allan Mcleod, AssistMed's Vice President of Customer Support, said. As a result, authorized clinicians in any MUSC network location have easy access to doctors’ transcribed notes that now reside in the secure EHR.

The leading database provider in clinical healthcare, InterSystems develops and markets innovative database and integration software. Its product line includes the InterSystems CACHÉ® high-performance object database, InterSystems Ensemble rapid integration platform, and InterSystems HealthShare platform for regional and national EHRs. AssistMed provides clinical documentation solutions to organizations on an enterprise scale, with innovative online technologies that integrate healthcare information from hospitals, physician offices, patients, and communities.
