Anyone know of a good free Medical Spell Checker? - Tiff


Posted: Nov 09, 2009

I recently got a new computer & have had quite a time getting all my transcription software transferred over; the only thing I am unable to transfer is my medical spellcheck.  I have used Stedmann's for sometime now but went on their site and it is $100 to purchase it.  The version I have on a disc is not supported by Vista :( Does anyone know of any other good medical spell checkers out there that are free??

I've used this one with Word. See link. - Joan

It's called MTH-Med-Spel-Chek and worked when I couldn't reinstall Stedman's Spellchecker.

spellcheck - vrmt

As far as I know Word has an inbuilt spellchecker, but you have to purchase a medical spellchecker, I guess, Stedman's electronic is the best.

Can you build your own? sm - elaine

It's free and as reliable as you make it. You just have to make sure not to add misspelled words to your dictionary.
