• Fix to return "/" when number range spoken - If the number spoken before the words "out of" was a range like "4 to 5 out of 10" then "out of" was not returning as "/". This issue has been fixed. (D-12301) 

Accuracy - General Medicine

• Fix for Extra Letter Added to End of Word Prefix - Extra letters were being inserted into some words with prefixes when Direct Text was enabled (for example, "hyperrkeratosis" and "nonnetender"). This was caused by an issue with substitutions that combined prefixes with root words and has been corrected. (D-12288)
• Fix to Return Doctor instead of Dr. -  The abbreviation "Dr." was returning every time "doctor" was spoken. For example, user would speak "doctor received..." and  "Dr. Received..." was transcribed. This issue has been corrected. (D-12356)
• Fix @ Returning in Transcript - A vocabulary term that included underscore around a word at (e.g. Diagnosis_at_Discharge) was creating an issue in which the topic would return "Diagnosis@Discharge" instead of "Diagnosis_at_Discharge" in the transcript. This has been corrected. (D-12381)
