356 Section 6 . LEADERSHIP - O JUSTIFICATION FOR NEW TRANSCRIPTION SYSTEM . The current dictation system is 15 years old. It requires service a couple of times per month. The downtime of the system averages 50 minutes each time the serviceman comes out to service it. . The medical staff has complained of not being able to access the system due to getting busy signals. . Dr. Delinco complains that his operative reports are taking 1 to 11/2 weeks to be typed. . Dr. Smith has complained that the current system does not allow him to call in and listen to his dictations as an alternative when the report is not available on the patient chart. Prioritizing reports among the transcriptionists is not as automated as newer systems allow, therefore consuming transcribers' time and impacting production.
