Director of Clinical IT Operations improves the consistency of pathology reports

Simon Winter is the Director of Clinical IT Operations for New South Wales Health Pathology in New South Wales, Australia. He and his team have been using PhraseExpander since 2015.

Challenges

  • All pathology reports were manually constructed with dictation and typing.
  • Doctors had to work late in the evening to keep on top of their caseload.

How that was solved

  • With the exceptional support of PhraseExpander, it took minutes to set up templates for the whole staff.
  • Pathologists created predefined text to use and share with their colleagues.

Results

  • Doctors don’t need to work late anymore.
  • PhraseExpander has improved the speed and consistency of pathology reports.
