Translation Services For Hospitals Review

Medically accurate HIPAA compliant translation services driven by cloud technology are solving growing staffing and regulatory compliance problems. Automated medical interpretation solutions improve patient engagement, for better health care, quality, safety, and patient outcomes vs live interpretation alone. This article highlights how services are evolving.

Translations: Free solutions to translate documents, forms, and presentations like Google Translate and Microsoft Translator don’t cut it. They do not meet privacy requirements nor accuracy needed for medicine. Paid solutions vary widely in cost, accuracy, services offered and turnaround time.

Telephonic Interpreting: Demand is off the charts. The number of languages spoken cannot be met with internal staff alone. Phone service is not fast enough for emergency rooms; the outcome for delays could mean death.

Automated translation and interpretation: No waiting! When contextualization is added by translating entire sentences, not just words, in the dialect and related industry, accuracy reaches new heights. By reducing manual human translation, hospitals can increase productivity significantly. With new technology, users can choose from speech to speech, text to text, or any combination thereof. Additionally, the capability for an entire audience to listen in their own language and dialect simultaneously, and for doctors and intake personal to hear or read in English is a game changer for real-time communication.
