More recently, Nuance has announced deals to work more closely with electronic health record vendors such as Cerner, enabling deeper integration of ambient and conversational AI into its software to streamline EHR workflows.

Nuance launched Dragon Medical One in 2016, and since then has unveiled other voice enabled clinical documentation and workflow tools in partnership with Microsoft. It is able to capture clinical documentation as much as five times faster than typing, with 99% accuracy.

Meanwhile, physicians often spend twice as much time entering clinical notes and billing codes as they spend with patients – much of it during late-night "pajama time" at home. Some reports say the stats are even worse than that. Nuance cites data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Office of the Surgeon General that show increasing demands of electronic documentation is "driving nearly a third of physicians, nurses and other frontline healthcare workers to consider leaving the profession." ![]() Nuance Communications on Tuesday announced that its Nuance Dragon Medical One clinical documentation software will now be made available through Microsoft Marketplace.ecosystem.
