Wichita, KS – Voice Products Inc., a voice, transcription, and speech solutions provider in healthcare and public safety for more than 30 years, has partnered with Let’s Talk Interactive (LTI), a leader in customizable software and solutions, and recent Zoom award winner, to offer customers an award-winning telehealth platform.
The two companies met in 2018 while selling a previous telemedicine platform. They became partners in the summer of 2020 when COVID-19 created a more urgent need to develop a new product. The partnership brings Let’s Talk Interactive’s secure, HIPAA-compliant online software and hardware and Voice Products’ customized speech recognition technology to its long-time dictation and transcription, data, and video customers.
“We’re thrilled to team up with Let’s Talk Interactive because we know their telehealth platform is the best one available,” said Dean Tullis, President/CEO of Voice Products, which has also invested in designing and developing the solution.
Voice Products’ confidence in LTI was solidified earlier in December when Zoom Video Communications announced that Let’s Talk Interactive was the winner of Zoom’s inaugural global Trailblazer Award. Zoom picked LTI as a leading technology company in the field of telemedicine.
“Innovation in telemedicine expands well beyond a ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution,” said Arthur Cooksey, Founder and CEO of Let’s Talk Interactive, Inc. “We’re excited to partner with Voice Products, bringing together two major innovators to execute a 21st-century approach to healthcare successfully.”
Telemedicine minimizes exposure to COVID-19 and other viruses, and the integration of speech recognition technology adds to safety procedures.
“The whole medical industry is seeing the advantages of telemedicine, whether it’s the family physician keeping people from coming in during COVID or flu season, or the specialist who can see patients in rural areas more often and with less travel,” said Tullis. “Speech recognition makes telemedicine even more efficient by allowing physicians to drive the platform with their voice.” It practically eliminates the need for providers to touch a device to launch sessions, take notes, sign documents, or even schedule sessions.
The partnership also brings new options to Voice Products customers, such as the opportunity to utilize LTI’s physician consortium to provide specialists, including mental health professionals.
Voice Products and LTI utilized this unique network of physicians to design a complex telemedicine workflow for the Fort Madison Community School District in Iowa by providing psychologists and other behavioral health professionals.
Another school district was the first collaboration between Voice Products and LTI. The two companies teamed up to provide primary and mental health care to Montgomery County, Maryland schools via two telehealth carts loaded with medical devices and the telemedicine software. The school district hopes to expand these services to 62 other schools.
