Dictate in any app · Clinical
Cerner deployments are enterprise-configured, and dictation is decided by the hospital, not you. Typally puts your words into Oracle Health (Cerner) the moment you release the key, in whichever field you left the cursor.
From the people who build Typally. If Oracle Health (Cerner)'s own option covers your use, use it — this page will tell you when it does.Many deployments integrate a specialist clinical dictation product. Whether you have it depends entirely on what your organisation licensed and configured.
Clinicians on Cerner face the same documentation burden as anywhere: structured fields are clicks, and the narrative sections are prose typed at the end of a long shift.
In practice people use it for: Narrative note sections, patient instructions, referral letters, and inbox messages — via your organisation's approved tools.

Grab the build for your platform and create an account.
Whatever has the cursor receives the text, so click the right place in Oracle Health (Cerner) before starting.
The recording lasts exactly as long as you do.

Typally is explicitly not the tool for the chart. Where it fits a hospital role is the substantial writing that surrounds clinical work — teaching, research, audit reports, administrative correspondence — none of which involves protected health information. For anything that does, use your organisation's approved system.
A clinician writing a departmental teaching pack dictates it at home in twenty minutes. Everything touching a patient record continues to go through the hospital's approved clinical dictation, because those are different compliance situations.
Use whatever clinical dictation your site licensed for patient documentation. It is trained on medical vocabulary and sits inside your compliance boundary; a general tool is neither.
Typally is not HIPAA-certified and audio is sent to a third-party transcription service. It must not be used for protected health information under any circumstances.
No. It is not HIPAA-certified and transmits audio to a third party. Patient documentation requires a tool covered by a business associate agreement.
A specialist medical dictation product integrated by the hospital. Availability depends on your site's licensing.
Yes — teaching material, research writing, committee minutes and administrative email, none of which contain patient data.
