Whats the Difference?We are frequently asked what is the difference between. Let’s start with Dragon Medical Practice Edition 4 as it was released in January 2018 and this is the first update to the software in about five years. Dragon Medical Practice Edition 4Dragon Medical Practice is based off of the same technology used for Dragon Medical One, so they both offer similar performance.
Nuance® Dragon® Medical One can quickly and painlessly bring your practice into the present and allow you to document within your EHR with ease.

The main difference between the two products is this: Dragon Medical Practice is installed and runs locally on your computer’s hard drive. It uses your computer’s local resources for memory, processing power, and storage.
Your voice profile will only be accessible on that particular workstation (note: you can still install Dragon Medical Practice Edition on up to 4 computers). If you have multiple exam rooms and would like to do dictation from home install it on a laptop while you’re traveling, you can. The recognition engine is quite phenomenal, within 30 seconds can set up your user ID and begin dictating.
Nuance has spent a lot of time in research and development to get to this point. Many years ago you had to read different sentences for the software to learn your voice patterns. This is no longer the case. Dragon Medical even accounts for accented users, non-native English-speaking users, and other dialects. Dragon Medical OneAs of this writing (August 2018), has been available to the market for just over a year. It offers some distinct advantages over Dragon Medical Practice. The biggest appeal is that your profile is stored in the cloud, meaning any computer you have access to can use your medical voice recognition profile.
All of your customized words and templates (word expansions) are available anywhere. Additionally, your voice profile is automatically backed up and protected by being stored in the cloud.
The pricing for this model is different, as you pay a monthly subscription fee. But paying the fee has its advantages. With the monthly subscription fee, the automatic backup of your voice profile, as well as access to all the latest and greatest updates for improvements to speed accuracy and language modeling, are included.Additionally included in the cost of both and Dragon Medical One, we at Voice Automated include installation, training and support for lifetime of the product. We are available after hours and on the weekends – this is important especially when you need to document the patient record during off hours.
Hello,Our site recently upgraded our speech recognition software from M.Modal to Dragon Medical One. We have also implemented AthenaHealth as our new EMR.There have been serious performance issues with users dictating using Dragon in conjunction with Athena. This is with the Chrome Dragon Medical One extension enabled. Everything between cursor skipping, delayed dictations, DMO app freezing.We tried having users switch from Chrome to IE, and while it is a little better, it causes problems with Athena.Have any user's experienced problems with DMO and Athena? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.Thank you,-Liz. Welcome to the World's Most Popular Speech Recognition ForumAt best, switching to Internet Explorer would only be a temporary solution because Microsoft has stopped supporting Internet Explorer, which is understandable.A couple of weeks ago, Nuance introduced a new DMO Google Chrome add-in which you should already have so this might not good news, if you already have this update. You might want to double check with Nuance.We are DMO resellers but do not sell or even offer DMO on our website because in our opinion, it is too limited and too expensive. We prefer (Dragon Medical w/Ver.
15.3 Speech Engine) which is local, user profiles are local, no monthly charges, less expensive, more capable and supports real Advanced-Scripting commands along with pseudo-AI scripting commands, which are extremely powerful. Of course this is not the answer you were looking for but we thought we should throw it out nevertheless.-(615) 884-4558 x2(PDF)(30 Day Trial)(15 Day Trial).
