Mira Dictate · Orthopedic Dictation

Dictation with clinical judgment.

Transcription

Patient presents with a full-thickness supraspinatus tear, approximately 2 cm in the AP dimension...

Auto-inserted into EMR → Operative Note
Intelligence

Dictation that thinks like a surgeon.

Knows what to capture, what to ignore, and how to structure the output — so dictation produces clinical content, not just a wall of text.

Yours only your voice

Knows What to Capture

Dictate only writes down what you want documented. Side conversations, hallway chatter, and staff interruptions are ignored — not transcribed into the note.

Structured clinical output

Understands Clinical Intent

Not just speech-to-text. Dictate understands the clinical meaning of what you say — so "MRI left knee" becomes a structured order, not a string of words to paste.

Ortho native

Orthopedic Vocabulary

Built on hundreds of thousands of orthopedic encounters. Implants, anatomy, eponyms, and subspecialty terminology are handled natively — no user training required.

∞ custom commands

Custom Voice Commands

Create shortcuts for phrases and templates you use constantly. Say "insert standard ACL protocol" and Dictate fills in your pre-configured block in the right EMR field.

0 clicks to insert

EMR Auto-Insertion

Dictation flows directly into the active EMR field. No clipboard, no paste, no switching windows. Works with Epic, Athena, ModMed, and more.

100% HIPAA compliant

HIPAA-Compliant

All audio processed on encrypted infrastructure. No data stored on device. BAA included. Hosted on SOC 2 certified AWS infrastructure.

Comparison

Intelligence beyond transcription.

Dragon captures everything you say. Dictate captures only what belongs in the record — and turns it into structured clinical content.

Why surgeons choose intelligent dictation

Dictation With Judgment

Traditional dictation transcribes everything you say. Mira Dictate distinguishes what belongs in the record from what doesn't — side conversations, interruptions, and ambient chatter stay out of your note.

Speaks Orthopedics Natively

Trained on real orthopedic encounters. Implant systems, surgical approaches, eponyms, and subspecialty vocabulary are handled out of the box — no user macros or vocabulary training required.

Connected to the Workflow

Most dictation tools dump text into a clipboard. Dictate pushes structured content directly into EMR fields and can route into orders, templates, and downstream workflows.

Platform

Desktop App

Mira Dictate in short

Orthopedic dictation, without the Dragon setup

Mira Dictate is orthopedic dictation software for Windows, macOS, and Linux that turns what you say into a structured clinical note, not a block of text. It understands orthopedic vocabulary without voice training, ignores side conversations, and types straight into the field you are in, whether that is your EHR, a letter, or an op note template. For surgeons moving off Dragon Medical One, it is dictation built around op notes, clinic notes, and letters.

Frequently asked questions

01How is Mira Dictate different from Dragon Medical?
Dragon transcribes everything you say. Mira Dictate understands clinical intent — it captures what belongs in the record, ignores what doesn't, and produces structured output that flows directly into EMR fields. It's built on orthopedic encounters, so subspecialty terminology, implant systems, and procedure language are handled natively without user training.
02Does Mira Dictate work on Windows and Mac?
Yes. Mira Dictate runs as a lightweight desktop application on both Windows and Mac. It works in any EHR, inserting text directly into the active field, and Mira integrates natively with Epic, athenahealth, ModMed, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, and DrChrono.
03Can I use custom voice commands?
Yes. You can create unlimited custom voice commands for frequently used phrases, templates, and text blocks. Say your trigger phrase and Dictate fills in the pre-configured content into the right EMR field.
04Can I use Mira Dictate alongside Mira Scribe?
Yes. Mira Dictate and Mira Scribe are separate products that work together. Use the Scribe for full ambient encounter documentation and Dictate for quick edits, addendums, and letters.
05Does Dictate capture conversations I don't want documented?
No. Mira Dictate is designed to capture only the content you intend to document. Side conversations, staff interruptions, and ambient chatter stay out of the clinical record.
06What is the best dictation software for orthopedic surgeons?
The best fit is software that knows orthopedic vocabulary without training and produces a structured note, not just text. Mira Dictate is built on orthopedic encounters, handles implants, anatomy, and eponyms natively, and inserts structured content straight into the active field on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
07Does Mira Dictate need voice training?
No. Orthopedic vocabulary, implant systems, surgical approaches, and eponyms are handled out of the box. There is no voice profile to train. If you want a name or term spelled your way, add it to your personal dictionary.
08Does Mira Dictate work with ModMed and Epic?
Yes. Mira Dictate works in any EHR, because it types where your cursor is. Mira also integrates natively with Epic, athenahealth, ModMed, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, and DrChrono. A global hotkey drops text into the active field of any app, with no clipboard or window switching.
09Is Mira Dictate HIPAA compliant?
Yes. Audio is processed on encrypted infrastructure, no data is stored on the device, and a BAA is included. Mira Dictate runs on AWS infrastructure, which is SOC 2 certified.
