Excellent conversion of dictation to a useful transcript requires many skills including conversion of spoken English to written, adjusting to dictator style, grammatical prowess, catching dictator errors, and reformatting content to intended purpose. Speech recognition can capture most words, but it also introduces other errors and leaves out much of the formal grammar, punctuation, and formatting needed for a professional document. With the advent of many Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems, voicemail transcripts, audio conference transcripts, and others, some companies require their staff to use speech recognition technology as part of a dictation process. The promise is cheaper dictation costs; however, that promise is usually not realized without editing of the recognized text. Having business staff or medical practitioner become the editor is certinly not cost effective. See our Tips for Transcription section on this topic.
