to work in your regular platform such as DQS or do you have to download an entirely new system to work in a hospital EMR. My hospital is on DQS and going to EMR or Epic so I am not sure if that means all my short cuts etc are gone or we continue somehow to use both systems. I doubt you can use short cuts in EMR but again I have no idea and I dont think you can move your short cuts out of DQS to another system and again I dont know. Seems like I dont know much this morning at al ...

Epic - Anybody using Epic transcription? Hospital I work for is switching to Epic. MT's will still transcribe radiology reports. Would like to know what the system is like for transcription. Can you make your own macros? Can you use a word expander. It is complicated? ...

The hospital I work for changed over the Editscript last year. Changeover went relatively smoothly, and we still had plenty of work to keep all the transcriptionists busy (after we stopped outsourcing the overflow we used to have). Recently, the hospital switched to Epic electronic medical record system, and within a week the transcription workload plumeted to probably 40% of our former workload --not enough to keep our transcription staff busy. It seems the doctors/nurses/etc ...

With so much talk about Epic taking away MT jobs, do you think it will do the same with coding? Maybe not just Epic but technology advances will affect coding down the road, yes or no? So worried I just wasted a year of my life studying coding and it may not be a stable career. ...

So who has been affected by Epic out of Madison, WI? It took away a lot of our work at the clinic. ...

Hi all, The hospital I work for will start using Epic next year. From everything I have read, I understand that transcription will most likely be cut in half. For those of you have gone through this already, have you seen any other jobs created AFTER Epic? I know there may be editing, but should we expect anything else? ...

For those in-house transcriptionists and IC at-home transcriptionists who have been through an EPIC launch/dragon dictation, does it totally eliminate the transcription? I am just curious. Wouldn't there be some types of reports that could not be done by either? ...

Venting session! I am a part-time work-at-home transcriptionist employed at a local hospital as "resource".

A HUGE clinic with many different specialties in this area has went to Epic and now have laid off 30 MTs. They said with Epic they didn't need them all. What a shame! I actually use that clinic, and I knew something was up a couple months ago when I went to the doctor. They had a new system and they were typing everything in the computer. When I left they gave me this printout that looked like a medical report. It had my diagnosis, medicati ...

I was reading a post on one of the other boards about what an EPIC or point-and-click report looks like and it made me think about what it would be like to code a report like that. Was wondering if any coders here code EMR point-and-click reports and does it make your job harder? I would think that lots of narrative and detail would be more helpful in coding. I've never actually seen an EPIC report so I don't know. Thanks. ...
