VoiceBox Terms of Service 

Transcription

VoiceBox Platform (VoiceBox), owned and operated by Avant Practice Solutions, provides a technically advanced integrated transcription and message delivery service for medical professionals.

Voice Box provides a mobile and flexible system for dictating, correcting and delivering correspondence for busy doctors.

VoiceBox offers three modes of transcription:

1. Dictate: 

a.      production of a letter of correspondence following submission of voice file converted to text and formatted using your own secretary to proofread your letters;

b.      production of a letter of correspondence following submission of voice file converted to text and formatted using our Australian-based proofreading and editorial team;

2. Live: production of a letter of correspondence by way of real-time voice-to-text conversion 

3. Scribe: 

a.      production of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated summary of a recorded discussion and designed to be imported into a medical record; or

b.      production of a letter of correspondence generated by AI using the context of a recorded discussion. 

VoiceBox uses speech recognition software that allows dictation to be performed using iOS and Android smartphone and via web-applications on laptop or desktop computers with an approved dictation microphone. 

Here’s a summary of what VoiceBox can do:

        Scribe functionality allows for patient consults to be securely recorded, with consent and attestation workflows to ensures a high level of governance; 

        Securely converts voice to text in real time ready for doctors to format and send; 

        Creates a secure workflow for doctors to dictate letters and have them proof-read and formatted ready for approval and delivery; 

        Provides a managed correspondence delivery service including over 110,000 electronic addresses, and oversight to ensure letters are electronically delivered; 

        Integrates with secure messaging services to ensure letters can be filed in practice management systems; and 

        Integrates with practice management systems to ensure that patient and doctor details are visible in the app to make dictation and workflow management easy.

 

VoiceBox dictation can be performed anywhere, and the process of transcription, formatting and delivery is initiated immediately when the file is sent via high quality internet connection.
