Amazon Transcribe Medical streaming transcription produces accurate transcripts of dictation and conversational speech in the medical domain. In the clinical documentation workflow, physicians can efficiently capture medical notes without distraction during patient engagements. Moreover, physicians can leverage the transcribed notes after patient encounters to more quickly conduct medical data entry into electronic health record (EHR) systems. This culminates into a better experience for physicians who save valuable time, and also a higher patient satisfaction and care overall.
AWS PrivateLink support for Amazon Transcribe Medical real-time streaming is available in all AWS regions where the service is available. To learn more, visit the Amazon Transcribe Medical documentation page.
