    <category>Documentation &amp; Dictation</category>
    <description>Often enough that every dictated line needs a read. A 2018 study found 7.4 errors per 100 words in raw speech-recognition output, and errors remained in 42.4% of notes after the clinician signed them.</description>

    <title>Why Does Dictation Mishear Drug Names?</title>

    <category>Documentation &amp; Dictation</category>
    <description>General speech engines are trained on everyday language, so a drug name loses to a common word that sounds close. Specialty vocabulary helps, and reading every drug and dose before you sign still matters, because some errors survive review.</description>

    <title>What Is One wRVU Worth in 2026?</title>

    <category>wRVU &amp; Productivity</category>
    <description>Two numbers matter. Medicare's 2026 conversion factor is $33.4009 per RVU, but your employer pays on the dollars-per-wRVU rate written in your contract. The work RVU itself comes from the CMS fee schedule.</description>

    <description>Usually because charges never got logged, not because the notes fell short. A missed 99232 is 1.59 work RVUs that the documentation already supports. Keeping your own daily tally lets you reconcile before the month closes.</description>

    <description>Either, since the 2023 CPT E/M changes. Pick the one your note supports better. A 99233 requires high-complexity decision making or 50 minutes of total time on the date of the encounter.</description>

    <title>What Should a wRVU Clause in Your Contract Say?</title>

    <category>Contracts &amp; Comp</category>
    <description>The rate per wRVU, which year's CMS values it uses, who counts the work, and how missed charges get corrected. CMS values and the conversion factor change every year, so a clause without a year is a moving target.</description>

    <category>Clinician Tools &amp; Workflow</category>
    <description>Because desk work outgrows clinic time. A 2016 time-and-motion study found physicians spent nearly two hours on EHR and desk work for every hour with patients, plus one to two hours each night.</description>

    <description>You say &quot;dot&quot; and the phrase's name in the middle of a sentence, and Chartside drops in the saved text and keeps listening. No switching to the keyboard to type a SmartPhrase between dictated sentences.</description>
