Dictation Usage Organization Detail Report Columns
Username
The identification used by the account holder to log in to the client.
- Accounts that have been deleted are listed with the word [deleted] next to the user name.
First Name
The account holder's first name.
Last Name
The account holder's last name.
Status
The status of the account holder if deleted or disabled. This will be blank if the account is enabled.
Organization
- The organization listed here is one level below the organization selected in the organization menu at the top of the page. For example, if you selected a company level organization at the top of the page, the division organizations below it are listed here. (However, if a group is selected in the organization menu at the top of the page, the group name is listed here.)
- If the organization listed is a higher level than group, the data includes usage for users in all groups below the level shown. For example, if a company level organization is listed here, the report shows usage information for users in all groups below that company.
Number of Dictations
The total number of dictations recorded by the account holder during the selected date range. This includes dictation attempts that returned zero words. By default, dictations up until 23:59:59 on the last day in the selected date range are included in the calculation for Number of Dictations.
Words Transcribed
The total number of words transcribed from dictations recorded by the account holder, as determined by the dictation engine. By default, dictations up until 23:59:59 on the last day in the selected date range are included in the calculation for Words Transcribed.
"Words" for the sake of the word count is text separated by white spaces, not counting built-in formatting commands (like "new line"). Punctuation is not counted as a word either UNLESS the punctuation is the ONLY thing in the dictation (e.g. "question mark"), then that counts as one word. Substitutions are counted as the word or words that elicit the substitution and not the substituted text (e.g. "signature" would be counted as one word even if the substituted text was, "George Glass, Hospice RN").
Average Spoken Words
words transcribed / number of dictations = average spoken words
The average number of words spoken per dictation (rounded to the nearest whole number) recorded by the account holder.
The number in the Total row (at the bottom of the report) is calculated using the total words transcribed by all accounts on the page divided by the total number of dictations by accounts on the page.
Average Original Transcript Accuracy
(total number of words in all dictations corrected during the date range - total number of errors in those dictations) / total number of words = average accuracy percentage
The average recognition accuracy of corrected dictation text from dictations recorded by the account holder before substitutions are applied.
The calculation only includes dictation text that has been corrected and saved during the date range selected at the top of the page. Dictation text before substitutions are applied is found on the Original tab on the Review & Correct Detail screen. (See Listen to Audio & View Transcripts) This field is blank when no corrections were saved.
The calculation takes the total number of words in all dictations corrected during the date range and subtracts the total number of errors in those dictations divided by the total number of words to come up with the average accuracy percentage.
Corrected Dictation 1 | Corrected Dictation 2 | Average Accuracy | |
---|---|---|---|
# Errors | 10 errors | 0 errors | 10 errors |
# Words | 100 words | 10 words | 110 words |
% Accuracy | 90% | 100% | 91% |
Words in Accuracy
The total number of words included in the Corrected text field for dictation transactions that were corrected during the selected date range. The calculation for this number only includes transactions with a status of "Corrected". (The accuracy score is based on the Words Transcribed.)
Minutes of Audio
sum all of the user's dictation audio within the specified time period / 60 = minutes of audio
The total number of minutes for dictation audio recorded by the account holder for the time period. The number of minutes are calculated as the sum all of the user's dictation audio (in seconds) within the specified time period divided by 60. The time for each audio is measured from the time the user presses the recording hotkey or button until it is released. By default, dictations up until 23:59:59 on the last day in the selected date range are included in the calculation for Number of Minutes of Audio.
Seconds of Audio per Dictation
(Minutes of audio total * 60) / Number of dictations total = Seconds of audio per dictation
The number in the Total row for this column is the average of the values in the column.
Dictation Words Per Minute
words transcribed / minutes of audio = dictation words per minute
This is effective speaking rate. This is calculated as the number of words spoken divided by the total elapsed time between the user pressing the record hotkey or button and when a dictation transcript is returned to the user. The total elapsed time includes the total audio length and the time the server needed to process each request. Network latency is not included in this calculation.
The number in the Total row for this column is the average of the values in the column.
Lines
aggregate number of transcribed characters / 65 = lines
The total number of lines transcribed from dictations by the account holder. The lines are calculated as the aggregate number of transcribed characters (based on Words Transcribed) divided by 65. By default, dictations up until 23:59:59 on the last day in the selected date range are included in the calculation for Lines.
