Looking for threat about 3-T and computer access-sm - Anonymous


Posted: Oct 16, 2012

Can someone direct me to the thread talking about Turnaround Time Transcription and the discussion about their having access to your computer without your permission.  I am trying to determine if this is true or not.  Someone had posted that they need your permission first before they could access your computer which I am hoping is true.  Does anyone else have a fear of their privacy being invaded as a home-based MT?  Has anyone actually had a bad experience in that regard?  TIA

Remote computer access by ANY company - nn

[ In Reply To ..]
Many companies, including Microsoft and computer manufacturers can remote in to your computer using Logmein or other software. My question is, how do you expect to work for a company if you do not give them access to your computer in order to download the software on your computer. Once the installation is done, then both parties log off. They are not interested in "your personal stuff." I just sense a bit of paranoia here.

I have no issue with this for two reasons... - CB

(1) I've never had my employer remote in without my permission first (example, sign into something like join.me where I have to provide them a code/ID# in order for them to access).

(2) I have my own PC, so my work computer is used for work only and does not contain any sensitive personal information.

I'm in the process of trying to find a job and need to test for a few companies.  I no longer have Express Scribe on my computer, so today went to the site to download it.  Webroot (my virus software) blocked the site and told me there is a "known threat" there.  I know sometimes virus software gives you bogus warnings, but now I do not feel comfortable downloading it...woe is me :(  Has anyone else gotten this message lately...or downloaded it in the last few days ...

Access To Old Reports
Mar 05, 2010

I got an email yesterday stating that we would have access to old reports the way that QA does so we can look back to a specific patient's history to find something that might help us fill in blanks.   This is supposed to be in effect today. So I followed the instructions I got in the email, but I just can't figure out what it means.  I seems like it is just to print out instructions on how to do this, but I can't seem to find where we actually pull this informatio ...

How To Access Samples
Dec 09, 2010

DocQmanage: When you log onto DQM, add "dep" (no quotes) behind your ATP number. That will take you into a DQM area where you can search the MedQuist database by dictator, account, and the area from which you want to draw a sample, e.g., operative report or clinic (numerous specialities). The first time you use this area of DQM with the dep marker, you must have called customer support to allow access. Hasn't your CCM told you about this or is it reseved for certain MT levels?

Can I Access Markers In ExpressScribe?
May 08, 2012

When a doctor uses markers at the beginning of each patient's dication in a recording, how can I access those in Express Scribe when listening to it? I have e-mailed the company twice, and the first reply was totally unrelated to my question. There was no reply to the second query. I am currently using the free dl version of ExpressScribe but would glady upgrade to the $30 version if I was sure I could access the markers. Thanks for any help! ...

Survey - Do You Have Access To Chart?
Apr 28, 2014

I'm wondering how many MTs out there have access to patient charts.  As of now, I do and it's very helpful in looking up vitals, lab values, and doctors' names that the dictator invariably mumbles.  The company I work for will soon remove that access to MTs, and I'm wondering if this is a new HIPAA requirement or if we are moving to a platform that simply does not support it.  They are saying that it is because of HIPAA, but I think it's ridiculous to take ...
