On Tuesday, September 7, 2010, Emdat will be making InScribe 4.97 available for download. On Monday, September 20, 2010, our web applications will be deployed to our servers, upgrading them to InQuiry and InCommand 5.8. Below are details on what is new in each application. Please note that some of the features in the InScribe release on the 4th will only be available after the associated InCommand updates are deployed on the 20th.
Comment Tagging
Through InCommand, MTSOs will be able to create Comment Tags – canned notations about a transcription. Via InScribe, an MT will be able to choose one or more Comment Tags to apply to a transcription. Comment Tags can be indicators such as "Missing Patient Information" or "Could not Understand Dictator." A color can be associated with each Comment Tag. Through InQuiry's Review folder, a medical facility will see the Comment folder icon in the color of the chosen tag, and will be able to filter transcriptions by a given tag. This functionality will be extended to other folders in a future update.
MT Instructions
Through InCommand, MTSOs will be able to enter MT Instructions on a Document or Dictation Template. These notes will be presented to the MT in InScribe when the template loads. The MT will have the option of suppressing this note after the first time they view it. The MTSO will have the option to prevent the MT from suppressing a given note requiring the the MT to view the note each time. If changes are made to a note, it will automatically display to the MT on the next load.
Cross Client User Linking
If a dictator has more than one InQuiry account in different Clients, a new Client Maintenance option will allow the user accounts to be Linked. This will allow the user, when logged into client A, to use their Search All folder to also find transcriptions in client B. Users will still need to log into both clients to Complete jobs from various Workflow folders.
