Netsmart and nVoq partner to deliver integrated speech recognition to tackle the documentation challenge for in-home healthcare clients

Boulder, CO, June 6, 2023 - nVoq Incorporated, an innovator of speech recognition technology within the in-home healthcare industry, and Netsmart, a leading provider of healthcare technology solutions for human services, post-acute care and specialty practice communities, have announced a partnership agreement that will bring advanced speech to text capabilities to the Netsmart myUnity® electronic health record (EHR).

As part of the partnership, Netsmart becomes the authorized reseller of the nVoq speech recognition products for Netsmart clients. The cloud-based speech recognition technology will be seamlessly integrated within the Netsmart myUnity EHR solution, providing users with an intuitive and efficient way to document patient visits by simply using the power of their voice. With nVoq's advanced language understanding capabilities, the solution can accurately capture spoken words and convert them to text in real time, minimizing the need for manual data entry, improving documentation quality and reducing the risk of errors.

We are thrilled to partner with nVoq to bring cutting-edge speech recognition capabilities to our post-acute clients,” said Dawn Iddings, SVP & GM of Post-Acute Care, Netsmart. “Empowering clinicians and physicians to save time and build higher-quality, more comprehensive narrative notes is so important and directly linked to quality of patient care and in some cases reimbursement. As the only vendor that can support the whole continuum of post-acute care in a single platform, we look forward to advancing the technology capabilities of our myUnity solution to drive efficiencies and improved care.”
