Combatting Clinician Burnout by Reducing EHR Administrative Burdens

In a healthcare landscape where clinician burnout is a growing concern, the need for solutions that lighten the administrative load has never been greater. According to a study co-authored by the AMA, 63% of physicians have cited that burnout has impacted them in recent years, much of which is attributed to the excessive time spent on patient documentation tasks. Trans|IT addresses this critical issue head-on by significantly alleviating the administrative burdens tied to Electronic Health Records (EHR).

Our service integrates with all EHR systems, effectively streamlining the data entry and management tasks that consume valuable time. This not only simplifies administrative processes for physicians but also substantially eases the workload of support staff.

By reducing the time spent on EHR administrative tasks, Trans|IT enables clinicians to redirect their focus where it truly matters: patient care. In doing so, we aim to be a part of the solution that reverses the alarming trend of clinician burnout, restoring balance to the healthcare industry.

Seamless EHR Integration for Every Budget and Workflow: HL7, API, and Manual Options Available

Trans|IT’s unparalleled capability to integrate with over 1,500 Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems is not just a feature; it’s a testament to the adaptability and broad applicability we bring to medical transcription services. Whether you are part of a small clinic or a large, multi-departmental hospital, we can accommodate your unique EHR environment.

To make this possible, we offer multiple modes of integration to suit every budget and workflow preference:

HL7 Integration

HL7 (Health Level Seven International) is a set of international standards for transferring clinical and administrative data between healthcare providers. Our HL7 integration capabilities allow for seamless, real-time sharing of transcribed reports and patient information between Athreon and your EHR system. This level of integration is ideal for larger healthcare facilities looking for robust, automated data exchanges.

 

API Integration

For healthcare providers that prefer a more customized approach, we offer API (Application Programming Interface) integrations. This allows us to tailor the Trans|IT platform’s capabilities to fit precisely into your existing systems and processes. API integration is particularly beneficial for medical practices with specialized requirements not readily met by standard HL7 protocols.

Manual Integration

We understand that not every healthcare facility has the budget or need for fully automated system integrations. That’s why we also offer manual integration options. With manual integration, Trans|IT can still securely and efficiently transfer transcribed documents into your EHR system, albeit requiring some manual steps for completion. This can be a smart option for smaller practices or those just beginning to digitize their medical record-keeping.

No matter your institution’s size, budget, or workflow preferences, Trans|IT’s flexible integration capabilities make it a perfect fit for your medical transcription needs. Our commitment to adaptability ensures that you can focus on caring for your patients while Athreon handles the seamless incorporation of clinical documentation into your EHR system.

Mobile Accessibility for On-the-Go Professionals

To simplify the dictation process, Trans|IT provides free mobile apps to its clients for iOS and Android devices. Our mobile apps integrate with patient scheduling systems to minimize clinicians’ need to manually dictate demographics, making your high-volume workflow more manageable.
