London, United Kingdom, July 2005 – After the recent successes with Gwent and West Suffolk G2 Speech announces yet another 2 hospitals which will soon be benefiting from MediSpeech. Swindon & Marlborough NHS Trust will be using MediSpeech at three different sites while Hull & East Yorkshire hospitals NHS Trust will have MediSpeech implemented at four sites, which together will result in a total of more than 160 users.

After a very smooth implementation of MediSpeech at Hull & East Yorkshire hospitals NHS Trust in early July, more than 115 users are now working with MediSpeech. At this moment they are working with digital dictation and in October the first doctors will switch to speech recognition.
In addition to the 115 users there are more than 800 users who can benefit from MediSpeech’s telephony solution providing direct access to dictated reports by telephone. With the telephony solution, easier and quicker access to reports is now available which directly benefits the patient.

Hospital departments such as radiology, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, CT-MRI and vascular used to work with an old fashioned stand-alone solution, they now create reports in a more efficient way with MediSpeech integrated with RadCentre from iSOFT. The Integration with iSOFT enables the departments to shorten the throughput time and reduce transcription costs.
The other hospital, Swindon & Marlborough NHS Trust, consists of three sites. Both the Radiology and Pathology departments will be using MediSpeech in the near future, encompassing 45 users.The first phase will see  digital dictation integrated with a StorCOMM PACS, followed by recognition with the integration to System C Radiology information system and Winpath Pathology information system from Clinysis.
