Technology App or Technology to Make Notes Faster?

[theanswer03]

My job doesn't have an EMR to enter notes, and I have to type 30-35 notes every day on new patient consults or followups, print them, and give them to medical records to be filed in the patients' charts. Notes take me upwards of 3(+) hours everyday, sometimes longer.

Does anyone know of any technology or have any advice that could speed this up for me, outside of hiring an outside transcription service?

I suggest creating a template that you can use everyday or even using autoprompts such as available through applications like Slack to speed things up. As a GP I would suggest writing or dictating notes immediately after you see the patient for greater accuracy and this will speed things up too. Good luck!

Hi, try Google keeps , I use it in my android device, We can even record voices and touch draw the notes. I use it everyday as we can also set reminders.
For most phones it comes as a built in app
Evernote is also a best alternative
