If you are a physician using a
Mac EMR (such as MacPractice, PowerMed, Practice Solutions or EXmedic) or you’re
required to use a Mac computer, Nuance has finally released Dragon
Dictate Medical; not to be confused with MacSpeech Medical which has been
discontinued. Dragon Dictate Medical is basically a combination of Dragon
Dictate with 90 medical specialty language models (vocabularies on steroids).
While Dragon Dictate Medical does not include professional amenities such as a
Roaming user profile network support, the ability to export your vocabulary
with pronunciations or the ability to create advanced scripting commands, it
utilizes the same speech engine as Dragon
Medical Practice Ed 2 and includes the ability to transcribe digital recordings.
NOTE #1: Current MacSpeech Medical users have the option of upgrading to the Dragon Dictate Medical Upgrade but this is the only upgrade path available.

NOTE #2: If you have the option to use Dragon Medical Practice
Edition 2 (w/DNS 12 Speech Engine) for the PC on a Mac running a virtual
Windows environment such as Parallels, Boot Camp or an actual PC, we recommend
doing so because DMPE 2 is notably more developed. However, if this is not an
option, you now have the opportunity to use Dragon Dictate Medical.
