Nuance Expands Dragon Medical One to Scandinavia

Nuance Communications has made its Dragon Medical One cloud-based platform available in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden, allowing doctors there to capture patients' stories at the point of care.

The three Nordic markets are among eight European countries added in 2020 as part of Nuance's continued international expansion of the Dragon Medical One cloud platform for clinical documentation. Dragon Medical One also is available in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, and Austria.

"Relentless paperwork is not the reason why physicians trained for so many years. They did it because they are passionate about caring for and healing people. Physicians are doing their best to manage all the required documentation and other administrative requirements. Dragon Medical One reduces administrative work and improves both documentation and quality of care," said Robert Dahdah, executive vice president and chief revenue officer at Nuance, in a statement. "With the international expansion of Dragon Medical One, we are accelerating the adoption of conversational AI to help clinicians worldwide focus their attention on their patients instead of the administrative requirements."

Dragon Medical One helps physicians produce clinical documentation using personalized tools on a wide range of workstations and mobile devices. Doctors can document care from any location. They simply open the application, choose the section they want to document, and start speaking to update the electronic health record.

Dragon Medical One is hosted in the Microsoft Azure-certified hosting infrastructure.
