Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Continuous Speech Recognition Technology implementation is expensive, and the failure of leading companies in this niche can hamper usefulness. C-SRT, if deployed and used with speech macros, experiences vastly improved implementations and drastically reduces medical transcription costs.A speech macro is a short phrase that is automatically translated into a block of text or a graphic display. A more powerful form of speech macro can bring up predefined templates and insert spoken text into the proper position automatically, based on its interpretation. Cases from the author's consulting experiences and from medical journals emphasize the need for speech macros from a cost-benefit standpoint. A prototype program is introduced that facilitates the process of creating macros. The need for macro management software is reconciled with current research on speech recognition and technology adoption. A planned experiment is discussed.
