Can I stop dosage abbreviations from expanding when I am dictating with Dragon Medical Practice Edition?

27 Dec 2012 / in Knowledgebase/by

Yes, you can disable the expansion of abbreviations such as “QHS” to “at bed time”. This can be useful when dictating into some EMR’s that require the code in a particular field. Below you can find the steps on disabling this feature.

Step 1 Open and Change the DMPE Formatting Settings

    1. In the DragonBar, select Tools> Auto-Formatting Options as illustrated below.

        

    2. Select the “Miscellaneous” tab.

    3. Uncheck the “Expand dosage abbreviations” option and click Apply>OK option as illustrated below.

       

            

Congratulations! You are done! Now your dictations will not automatically expand dosage abbreviations. Kick the tires and give it a spin!
