    • Normals may be associated with a worktype or provider

  • Managers configure character or line counting, include or exclude header/footer

Finally, Automated Quality Assurance Tools

  • Scribes have system access to their version and the corrected final version of the note for education; faxing and printing are no longer necessary

  • System includes multiple quality review levels enabling editing by various teams before a note reaches ‘Complete’ status

  • The voice file accompanies the transcript during the QA process for efficiency

  • Supervisors determine the percentage of jobs to be QA’d for each scribe and for each site

  • Scribes can quickly insert an ‘Unknown Word’ flag at any point in the transcript to mark an area where they are unable to determine the provider’s words. Editors are then able to view each Unknown Word, voice and text, sequentially for clarification

Automated Scoring to Grade each Scribe

  • Grading can be completed in an Active (before Complete status) or Passive (after Complete status) mode

  • Facility configures their own set of errors with associated numerical deductions

  • Arrendale system does the calculations automatically

  • The TA+ Admin Console provides quality score reports with accuracy percentages; enabling healthcare sites and MTSOs to provide definitive outcomes to their customers
