TranscribeÌ, the transcription word processor of the TAÌ Platform, was created specifically for the healthcare industry.  The application has been engineered for ease of use, reliability, HIPAA-enablement and flexibility.  TranscribeÌ contains the word processor, abbreviation expander and general, medical and pharmaceutical spellcheckers, eliminating third party software expenses.
