Document Audio Transcription

NextGen® Enterprise EHR enables you to export audio files recorded in NextGen® Enterprise EHR by generating documents in Rich Text Format (RTF) with embedded audio data. These documents can be sent to a transcriptionist, who opens them in a word processor, replays the audio file, and transcribes it. A completed transcribed document is saved into a designated folder and imported back into NextGen® Enterprise EHR by inserting the transcribed text into the applicable template.
