Butler Health System Sees 50% Improvement In PT Documentation Time With EHR Voice Overlay

Pilot Study Using VoiceFirst™ by Honeywell Gives Clinicians More Time for Patient Care, Reduces Therapists’ Time at Computers

Butler Health System’s flagship, Butler Memorial Hospital, was founded in 1898. Over the years, its success as an organization has fostered growth. Butler Health System (BHS) now employs nearly 2,000 professionals at nearly 30 locations throughout the region. Its commitment for more than a century has remained the same — provide the highest level of care, with the patient’s best interest at the center of every decision.

Butler wanted to realize a productivity improvement in its physical therapy department, where assessments and progress visits involve detailed documentation. The Butler Memorial Hospital IV team currently uses an earlier version of voice-enabled technology from Honeywell, so the hospital knew the potential for productivity gains with voice-controlled EMR data entry.
