Mobius Conveyor is the world’s most flexible medical dictation software. With Conveyor installed on your iPhone or iPad, you can instantly dictate into any EMR and on any computer – Mac or PC.
After pairing Conveyor with whatever desktop or laptop computer you use for work, you can start dictating. Speak into your mobile device, and your words appear on the screen wherever you place the cursor. Conveyor makes dictation and clinical documentation faster so doctors can close charts and get home on time.
How to use medical dictation software
Let’s discuss the basics of how to use medical dictation software. The instructions in this article are for Mobius Conveyor, a universal dictation solution for Mac and PC.
Pair your device
Install the Mobius Conveyor app on your iPhone or iPad to dictate on any computer. The benefit of Conveyor is that, no matter where you are, you will always have a dictation solution that knows your voice, vocabulary, and custom macros.
You can pair your mobile device with a computer using the Conveyor QR software (free download) or the Conveyor USB (optional purchase). Both options are fast and easy, but we recommend the USB device. Simply plug in the Conveyor USB, and your mobile device will automatically pair with known computers.
Begin dictating
Once you pair your device, place the computer cursor anywhere, then tap the microphone icon on your smartphone to begin dictating. Your words appear instantly on the paired computer screen. You can use Conveyor anywhere you type, including emails, documents, and any section of the EMR.
Mobius Conveyor already recognizes medical terminology, so your dictations will be very accurate. Check the text for errors, make any edits, and you’re done.
Streamline your medical dictation
Mobius Conveyor is a high-end, next-generation medical dictation software. It’s the fastest, most intuitive, precise medical dictation product available. The Mobius team developed Conveyor with close consultation from clinicians, so it does exactly what you want it to do with only the necessary options and functions.
Despite Coneyor’s simplicity, here are some tips and tricks to ensure perfect results when using medical dictation software.
- Numbers are typically written as words (not digits) unless dictated together with dates, date ranges, times, measurements, dosages, and symbols. To prompt Conveyor to write a number in digits, say “numeral” followed by the number.
- Learning how to dictate symbols will also save you time. Say “plus sign” for +, “percent sign” for %, or “equal(s) sign” for =. You get the picture.
- Optimize your medical dictation software by learning and practicing new voice commands.
How to edit while dictating
You can move your cursor or switch between apps while Conveyor listens in dictation mode. Just move your cursor to wherever you want to dictate.
If you need to edit a word or move to another section, place the cursor and make the edits.
If you’re new to dictation, switching between dictation and typing is the easiest way to revise. But if you are willing to learn a new workflow, you can edit using voice commands as you dictate.
How to use voice commands for medical dictation
Use voice commands to edit as you dictate for even more efficient medical dictation.
You can say “scratch that” to delete the last thing you said or “undo that” to undo your previous operation. To select a word, phrase, or sentence, say “select” followed by the text. Similar voice commands include “select all,” “select this word,” or “select first word.”
You can also use voice commands to capitalize words. You can say “cap” to capitalize the next word or “all caps” to capitalize all letters in the next word. Say “all caps on” to active caps lock or “no caps” to prevent the first letter of the next word from being capitalized.
Pause before and after saying a voice command to ensure it’s processed as a command, not as text.
