As technology becomes more advanced, the push to move from taped dictation to digital dictation is bigger than ever. The professional does not have to change his or her dictation routine, but it will change how securely and quickly a completed transcript is available.
Tapes are sent out by mail, which is timely. When tapes are sent with multiple dictations on it, this will make the lag time even greater. A digital dictation can be sent instantaneously, decreasing turn-around time. With our services, the digital dictation is saved to our secure servers automatically, saving more time for our clients.
Unlike a digital version, a taped dictation can be placed on a worn out tape, rendering it difficult to understand or useless. Taped dictation can be difficult to delete and impossible to add or edit information from anywhere else but at the end of dictation. It is frustrating to repeat a dictation, and may increase the chance of inaccuracies within the content.
Having a digital format of the dictation speeds up the transcription process as well. If it is a large project, multiple transcriptionists can be assigned to the project, which cannot occur when there is only one tape. The transcriptionist is also able to slow the dictation down without the distortion that occurs while slowing down a tape. This makes it easier to confirm what was dictated. Also, if there is an unclear portion, it is easy to clip that particular section, send it back to the practitioner, and confirm accuracy.
