Best Med/Pharm Spell Checker Software - Anonymous


Posted: Nov 25, 2013

Can anyone tell me what is the best medical and pharmacy spell check software to use with Windows 7/MS Word 2010 / Also, does anyone know if the eScription platform comes with its own spell check or any sort of on-line references for terminology. TIA !

I use eScription...SM - Old Anon

It doesn't come with its own spellchecker and there are no on-line references, although my MTSO has suggested a few based on the account. I used Medlexicon for abbreviations and OneLook as a general/medical dictionary. I have Stedman's Medical Spellchecker which comes in different versions for your operating system and version of Word. I also use Google Custom Search for MT for terminology, meds, and finding doctor names. I also have an older set of Stedman's Word Books that an old employer required back 15 years ago. I do refer to them from time to time. Others may have suggestions.
