It was just a couple weeks ago that M*Modal announced their
new software suite to work with medical records companies to incorporate unstructured data into medical records. This has been an issue with reading the text and appropriately containing in an EHR.
M*Modal with their speech recognition seems to be about the only competitor with Nuance as far as I have seen. Their product works in the cloud with recognizing key words and other relative bits of information in patient narrative unstructured data. it will be interesting to hear some feedback on how this works as well.
