In a short period of time, MModal has evolved into a leading provider of clinical narrative capture services, speech understanding technology and clinical documentation workflow. Today, MModal announced they have reached an agreement with Merge Healthcare.
Merge Healthcare has a client base consisting of more than 1,500 hospitals and 6,000 clinics across the country.

We will provide their clients with our patented speech-enabled solutions that will increase access to key clinical data originating from the provider’s spoken word, meeting them at their current state of readiness. It’s that simple spoken word that enables caregivers to fully capture the patient story, extract clinically relevant data and ultimately enhance the physician’s user experience.”
