Slovenian medical interpreters

Opalite uses the same underlying interpretation techniques for Slovenian as it does for Spanish, Mandarin, and Cantonese. In Opalite’s published validation study, those three languages were evaluated in clinical conversations, with over 90% fewer errors than certified medical interpreters across the conversations studied.

Healthcare providers covered by Title VI or Section 1557 must provide meaningful language access for patients with limited English proficiency, including Slovenian-speaking patients. Depending on the communication, that can involve qualified interpretation or translated documents. Opalite is designed to support those obligations.

About 4,997 U.S. residents age five and older speak Slovenian at home. Of that group, 934, or 19%, report speaking English less than very well. These are 2017-2021 American Community Survey 5-year estimates.
