From Friday 14^th August 2026, the Nuance Management Centre (NMC) will be no longer available for the Dragon Medical Practice Edition software, which means that user will not be able to use the software after this date.

This version of Dragon was end of life in September 2022 and reached end of support in September 2023.

What are the options for DMPE users?

If you require a replacement Dragon solution, we recommend Dragon Medical One. This version supports medical vocabulary along with integration into many EPRS (e.g. SystmOne, Emis) and is the direct replacement for the end-of-life Dragon Medical Practice Edition. We can provide free 14-day trial access to this software to assist with your transition, along with a heavily discounted license cost.

Alternatively, now might be a good time to explore the new Dragon Copilot Medical AI solution, the next step in medical speech recognition. Dragon Copilot utilises Dragon’s medical speech recognition engine and Microsoft AI capabilities to provide a complete voice-to-text and ambient AI solution for patient documentation.
