New iPad App Accent HD Takes Medical Dictation and Transcription Mobile

LATHRUP VILLAGE -- Webahn Inc. Wednesday announced the release of Accent HD, an iPad app for medical dictation with report management features.

Using OvernightScribe transcription platform, Accent HD helps physicians record dictations, review reports with simple search references, print, and manage files in multiple formats such as PDF, RTF, and Text.

Accent HD offers resources that shift time away from paperwork, and focus on patient centered care by moving with providers throughout the clinic setting. Accent HD's simple but intuitive interface allows for dictation that uploads via WiFi to OvernightScribe. Files are then transcribed, and posted in the clinic account. Physicians can carry the iPad with them to review archived reports, then dictate immediately upon seeing a patient.

"Our goal is to provide flexible technology that moves with health care providers," said Vinu Nair, CEO Lathrup Village-based Webahn. "Our solutions help doctors improve productivity and spend more time with patients."

Doctors can dictate and review reports in the same app, saving time and centering attention on patients. Completed reports are available to review, edit, print to iOS capable printers, as well as email and fax to referring physicians. Standard features include options for letterhead and e-signature stamps in approved reports, and a complete search archive to recall old reports.

Webahn has been providing clinical documentation solutions since 2000 with OvernightScribe.com, which is used by clinics throughout the nation, including Henry Ford Health Systems and Michigan State University HealthTeam in Michigan. Webahn is also known for Capzule PHR, a Personal Health Records App for iPad and iPhone.
