Jun 28, 2016 I Can’t Install the Dragon Medical 2.3 Update More likely: It’s possible that you’ve got an earlier version of Dragon Medical. Nuance designed Patch 2.3 for Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 specifically, so users running Dragon Medical 10 or 11 cannot get there without purchasing an upgrade. With the release of Patch 2.3, though, Dragon Medical now has the official seal of approval for Windows 10. In addition, this patch supports Office 2016. Update: The latest version now available is Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2.3.1, which fixes two issues with Windows tablets and Citrix environments. That’s right: Dragon Medical Practice.
DMPE 4.3 is a full release for customers that use Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2.x, 3.x and 4.x. This release is provided for US English, UK English, French, and German.
Dragon Medical Practice Edition helps clinicians – including physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, therapists, and other care providers – efficiently navigate and dictate medical decision-making and treatment plans directly into a patient’s electronic record. Dragon Medical Practice Edition is a locally-installed, affordable, real-time speech recognition solution that helps clinicians dictate in their own words anywhere in the EHR—faster and more accurately than ever before. License: English only; Installation permitted on a max of 4 computers simultaneously Operating Systems: Windows 10, 8.1 & 7; Windows Server 2016/2012/2012 R2, Windows Server.

|---|---|
The “send an email/send document as email” commands do not work in Word 2019. | The “send an email/send document as email” commands do not work in Word 2019. The commands work as expected in Word 2016. |
The Learn from Specific Documents tool does not work with GoogleDocs | if you try to run the Learn from Specific Documents Tool (Tools>Vocabulary Center>Learn From Specific Documents) with Google Doc, Dragon will ask for Google Docs credentials but will not be able to login to Google Docs to run the tool. |
The 'Read Line' and 'Play Back Line' commands don't function correctly in Microsoft Word 2016/2019 | The 'Read Line' and 'Play Back Line' commands cause Dragon to read or playback the line from where you have placed the cursor. In Word 2016/2019, the 'Read Line' and 'Play Back Line' commands cause Dragon to read or playback the entire paragraph from where you have placed the cursor. |
Poor recognition and audio issues in Citrix environment on Windows Server 2016 | Recognition may be poor and the audio may be distorted when using Citrix on Windows Server 2016. This is not an issue on Windows Server 2012 or Server 2008 R2. The issue occurs on XenApp and XenDesktop in Optimized mode; it does not occur in XenDesktop Generic mode. |
Adding exported vocabulary using NSAdmin strips advanced settings | When you export a vocabulary and then add it to Dragon using the NSAdmin tool, the advanced settings (Context and Printed Form) are stripped from some words. Workaround: Import the vocabulary using the Manage Vocabularies option from the DragonBar. Or, do the following:
|
Slight delays after copying and pasting large documents | Pasting documents of 40+ pages into Gmail may take up to 15 seconds before the microphone can be turned on and you can dictate. Dragon is not hanging; there is simply a delay. |

VocTool stuck at Authorization token window for Google Drive documents | When you attempt to use the VocTool with GoogleDocs, the VocTool gets stuck at the Google Drive Authorization screen. |
With Published Dragon, dictation is allowed without having focus on an edit control | When you are using Citrix and you start to dictate when no application or edit control has focus, text may be entered into a non-visible/background dictation box that you cannot close and this prevents Dragon from closing properly. Workaround: Ensure that focus is on the published application prior to dictating. |
DragonBar not restored from Tray mode | The DragonBar does not get restored from Tray mode for some users when Dragon is installed with the Start Dragon minimized in the tray option as the default. Workaround: Close and relaunch Dragon and Dragon will be correctly in Tray mode and the DragonBar can be restored. |
