How Cleglex Is Helping Doctors Focus More on Patients and Less on Paperwork
In the fast-paced world of modern healthcare, doctors are expected to juggle multiple roles: diagnosing illnesses, prescribing treatments, managing patients, and navigating complex electronic health records (EHRs). But perhaps one of the most time-consuming—and often frustrating—responsibilities is documentation. Medical documentation is not only essential for clinical accuracy but also crucial for legal compliance, insurance claims, and coordinated care. Yet, the burden of paperwork often takes time away from what matters most—patient care.
In the fast-paced world of modern healthcare, there are many roles for every doctorwhich include diagnosing illness, prescribing treatment, managing patients, and completing EHRs (electronic health records). However, one of the biggest time-consumingand often frustratingparts of a doctor's day is documentation. While documentation is vital for clinical accuracy, compliance with laws and regulations, insurance claims, continuity of care, etc., it is a common complaint that documentation can take time away from what doctors should be doingcaring for patients.
When it comes to medical transcription services, Cleglex stands out as a pioneer. Through its accurate, secure, and timely medical transcription service options, Cleglex allows doctors to focus back on the reasons that they became doctors: treating patientswhile keeping the quality of their documentation intact.
Strain of Today's Physicians
According to a recent study in Annals of Internal Medicine, doctors spend two hours of documentation for every hour with a patient. This is an unbelievable amount of documentation that not only causes burnout for doctors, but takes away from time and energy that could be spent cultivating patient connection, improving patient outcomes, and building innovative treatment plans.
With the rise of digital health systems and regulations, documentation demands will only continue to grow. Between progress notes, and dictating discharge summaries, or operative reports, many a doctor feels like documentation is an endless task.
Introducing Cleglex: A Game-Changer in Medical Transcription
Cleglex understands the increasing pressure on healthcare professionals and provides specialized medical transcription services that streamline and optimize your documentation. Cleglex uses your documentation style and workflow, whether you are a solo practitioner, or in a large hospital system or specialty clinic, to provide the transcription you need.
1. Effortless Voice-to-Text Documentation
With Cleglex practitioners can simply dictate their notes with a secure voice recorder or a mobile app and wave goodbye to typing large, complex reports. These audio files are securely uploaded and quickly transcribed into structured, formatted documents by trained medical transcriptionists.
By eliminating note typing, practitioners are able to complete documentation much faster than having to type it. In fact, a 15-minute dictation can be transcribed and sent back to the practitioner within hours - same-day documentation of charts and updates to records are possible.
2. Subject Matter Experts on Every Medical Practitioner's Team
Medical language is complex and varies from specialty to specialty. A transcriptionist that can effectively transcribe oncology reports will struggle with orthopedic reports. Cleglex assigns only specialists in medical transcription based on a medical practitioners specialty.
This makes sure that every report is not only grammatically correct, but medically accurate - minimizing the need for revisions or clarifications. Whether it's Radiology, Dermatology, Cardiology, or Internal Medicine, Cleglex will provide accurate documentation written and formatted specific to each specialty.
3. HIPAA Compliant and Secure
As the owner of sensitive patient data, maintaining security is a paramount concern. Cleglex treats that responsibility with the utmost importance. All transcription processes and procedures are HIPAA compliant and all data is transmitted, stored or processed using end-to-end encryption, secure server, and role assigned access to authorized personnel.
Below is how Cleglex is helping to lessen the physicians' paperwork and to free up more time to see patients:
4. EHR System Integrations
For most doctors, one of the most onerous administrative tasks is converting transcribed notes into the company's Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. Cleglex solves this problem by integrating with EHR systems so that finalized transcripts can be uploaded to the healthcare provider's EHR directly.
The benefit of our integration is that it is faster and decreases duplicated work and provides congruency across the electronic platforms, not just for the doctor but also if they work in multi-practice or large enterprise hospital networks.
5. Involves Rapid Turnaround Time
Distance and time will kill the efficiency of patient care. Disrupted documentation, as a result of a delay in receiving transcribed notes, will slow down your process for providing care to patients, delay diagnostics, and bottleneck billing. Cleglex offers rapid turnaround times for transcripts other, allowing you to receive finalized transcripts back on average within 12-24 hours depending on complexity, urgency, and volume of work.
An efficient legal transcription process allows patient care records to be updated in the EHR system, and be ready for the next consultation or referral quickly, thus improving care coordination and clinical efficiency.
6. Low-Cost Option to Hiring Staff
The overhead cost of hiring a full-time, employee (and in-house) transcriptionist is significant, and should not be dismissed. Companies will incur salary, training, equipment, and benefits cost just to have a transcriptionist on staff. Cleglex allows healthcare providers and clinics to use a transcription service as a low-cost alternative to hiring staff that can be scaled based on demand and the needs of the providers without commitment.
7. Better Work-Life Balance for Physicians
With the capacity to take away the burden of documentation, Cleglex frees up several hours in a physicians day which can be spent with family, on continuing education, or decompressing after a busy shift; this directly relates to decreasing physician burnout, an increasing issue facing today's healthcare system.
8. More Focus on What Really MattersThe Patients
The main benefit of outsourcing medical transcription to Cleglex is that it allows physicians to do what they were trained to docare for patients.
With less time devoted to administrative work, physicians are able to:
Listen effectively to their patients
More thoroughly explain the diagnosis and treatment plan
To follow up in a more meaningful way

A patient-first approach not only improves clinical outcomes but helps strengthen the trust and relationship between patients and their providers.
