Digital dictation

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Norfolk Primary Care Trust (PCT) should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Norfolk Primary Care Trust (PCT),

Under the freedom of information act, please could you tell me:
1) The names of any hospitals (including any secondary care
provision such as community or mental health) that fall under your
control.
2) Whether any of the afore mentioned bodies use digital dictation
and/or Speech Recognition. If so which organisations use what
systems?
3) If none are used or they are only used in some areas, are there
any plans to implement these type of systems more extensively to
increase efficiency and improve patient care?
4) If Systems are already in place, when are they to be reviewed.

Yours faithfully,

Paul Morgan
