About word expansion - this may seem a little crazy, but

Can anyone point me to a list for good word expansion ideas? I would like to get my line count up as high as possible and I know the more I expand, less i type, more money I make. Is there a list out there that can help me with the basic stuff I should start with besides the obvious hpi, pe, report headings, etc... Thank you so much. ...

Hello, I am going to be using DocQscribe (sp?) soon and I want to know if I will be able to use my Shorthand 10 word expansion software with it. I have been using Shorthand 10 for years and it is second nature now. I can't imagine working without it. Thanks! ...

Can anyone tell me if there is another word expansion program that will work in Bayscribe? Either my keyboard is not as sensitive, or that program is just a little slower than ones I have previously used. It seems I am having to hit the spacebar a couple of times to get words to expand, but sometimes this does not always work. I have used Instant Text before, but need to know if others will also work. any suggestions? Thanks! psw ...

Hi all, I have gotten a different computer and now have Word 7 on here as opposed to 2000. What would be a good expansion program to cut back on keystrokes? The techs where I work can only my dictionary compatible if I use the F3 key which is really inconvenient. Is there another program that might be compatible with using either the space bar or enter key? ...

I have been using this possibly little-known word expansion program (Shortcut for Windows) for years now and have umpteen thousand macros in it. I just bought a new computer and used the disc to install the program on it, but I can't get it work in Word like it did on my old computer. I tried googling "Shortcut for Windows" to try to get in touch with the company that made the program but no luck. Probably went out of business. Has anyone else heard of this company o ...

I have a doctor who says this all the time: Three views bilateral foot were obtained. I always want to change it to bilateral feet. Which is right foot or feet? ...

Orthopedic foot examination....discussing radiographic findings and he is clearly stating anciopathic/enciopathic....have searched and only gotten a result of angiopathic, which is not what he is saying. Am I having a complete mental block or are my ears decieving me?? Complete phrase states: "Radiograph shows a Haglund deformity and just the subtle start of some anciopathic changes at the insertion of the Achilles tendon." ...

Is there a preferred expansion for BPH? ...

I almost got caught just now, dictated as BPH, expanded BY THE SPEECH ENGINE to benign prostatic hypertrophy. Guess what happens when they catch that? I would get marked off because BPH can be either benign prostatic hypertrophy or benign prostatic hyperplasia, right? Ridiculous. Can't they teach the speech engine not to expand things when they have set the rule not to? Sometimes I have to wonder if they sit around trying to figure out ways to get us, really. ...

Does anyone here that uses IT have problems with capitalizations after periods in ASR? I know it was always an issue with ASR and even with docqscribe expander, but not sure if using IT would capitaliize the first letter after the period. TIA ...

I've been out of transcription for a couple of years and wonder what the most popular expansion program is now. I loved PRD before it expired years ago. More recently used Abbreviate for it's ability to provide formatted text (bold print, etc) in the short forms so an entire H&P format could be saved. Is that still on the market? I'm not sure if Abbreviate is still on the market. Any suggestions for current programs. Thanks m ...

Dictator says, "brought in by SARS" and I don't know what the expansion should be, but it's obviously not the respiratory condition, more like an emergency response team of some kind? Please give input. Thanks. ...

Anyone else missing ALL their expansions other than headings???? I expected nothing less than what's happening today with this transition. So frickin' typical. ...

I have the Shorthand expansion program. Sometimes it will put a space between the first and second letters of the expansion. Not all the time, but often. Is there any way to correct this? Thank you ...

I've used the ShortCut expansion program for 13 years so I'd hate to have to change now, but I'm having a problem with my expansions popping out ever since I installed Word 2010. They actually come out in slow motion, so slowly that I have a paragraph typed and only two or so words will be expanded. Is anyone aware of a problem with Word 2010, or if you use the ShortCut program, are you aware if an update is needed? I do recall needing an update of some sort whe ...

Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen. I got 0.25 taken off for the dictator having dictated "temp" and the report having "temperature." Had I typed it from scratch I would have typed temp, but the ISR did it and it said "temperature," so I did not change it. Are we actually supposed to shorten the expansions perpetrated by the ISR? Now if the ISR expands BPH to benign prostatic hypertrophy I know to change it back to BPH (I have actually come across this - you think they would mak ...

I thought my expansion file was unique to me. For some time, I have questioned about expansions being in there that I know I did NOT put in there. I did not think we shared our expansion file. HMMM. ...

I used to use AutoCorrect in DQS, and when I put in 72yo, it came out 72-year-old. With ShortHand, it does not expand, I assume because the 72 is attached to the yo and the computer therefore doesn't read yo by itself and therefore does not expand. Can someone tell me how to enter this into my ShortHand dictionary so that whenever I enter a number plus yo, it expands to XX-year-old? Sorry for my ShortHand newbieness, and thanks in advance. ...

I am trying a 30 day free version of Smartype. I used Stedman's in the past and loved it and now they have a new version of it. Does anyone use this? I am trying to get it to work but every time I enter a space to autocomplete a word, it enters a space wherever I press the space bar, even mid-word. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ...

I work full time for a company where I am on a platform with a built in expander program, but I recently started picking up jobs for a friend's company when she gets too busy and her staff can't keep up with it. All of the work there is done on Word and would be so much easier if I had an expansion program. The problem is, I don't want to pay $150 for a program that I only will use once or twice a month at most. Does anyone know of a program that is really cheap or free? ...

Hopefully somebody knows the answer to this question. When I did the 6.1 upgrade, none of my personal expansions were transferred. Is there a way to find that old file and copy it to the new upgrade? ...

Just started 7.1 today. I believe this has already been addressed, but I cannot find it on here. With autocap enabled, my expansions with a single letter, such as "t" for "the" and "r" for "right" capitalized the whole word. Any fixes for that??? ...

Hi all. I would like to know what the best way is to not leave a space after a hyphen when typing an expansion, such as 2-centimeter, etc. I know the formula to make it backspace once, such as with my expansion for -year-old, but thought there might be a better way for this one that I'm not thinking of? Like a way that would work with any hyphen-word combo? Thanks! ...

My boss has offered me a 3rd shift position working 8 p.m. to 4 a.m. I work days now 10 a.m to 6 p.m. This 3rd position appeals to me because there would be no interruptions and hopefully my production would get even better. I could be up in the morning around 10-11 am and have the rest of the day to run errands, grocery shop or just do some baking which sounds wonderful. I am usually a day person, but this sounds intriguing. I realize the first couple of weeks would ...

ASR: The patient had history of DVT and PE. Dictated: Allergies none. This is getting really bad,,,first the simple act of breathing into the phone prints out things that "could" be relevant to the current report..now something like this..Guess it is keeping us employed cause you cant send this stuff through un-edited. ...

Today is frequently adding an extra word of "some" to much of the editing I am doing. Is it EVER going to learn??????????? ...

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”Albert Einstein Well, it suddenly hit me this morning. With all the changes in this industry over the last 10 years (that's how long I've been in it), and no improvement in working conditions in sight, WHY AM I still doing it? I must be insane! I think I must have self-hypnotized myself into thinking that if I keep looking, I'll find some MT position that pays well ...

Has anyone else noticed a change in some of the CPs? I KNOW my so-called "primary" account CP used to say "REPORT FORMATTING: DQS Guidelines." It now says "REPORT FORMATTING: AAMT BOS" and I am getting dinged for things that used to be SOP. ...

Or senile? Yes, I am getting ready to retire but I still take pride in my work. How can I have a report out of the blue that is so full of errors, errors I am sure I did not make and then the rest of my reports are 100%. It is one I sent to QA. Is it possible that it could have been changed by one QA and then passed on with mistakes? Am I being paranoid? This makes me very anxious. Also, has this ever happened to anyon ...
