Proprietary software - New


Posted: Apr 02, 2010

Do these companies want you to use their proprietary software on your PC, and how is it installed?

Sure some of them do. I work for 2 different MTSO's and have different software from both of them. One I installed myself over the internet with their help and the other they had remote access to my computer and installed their program. I sat with them on the phone while they installed it and saw what they were doing. It just took a little while and when it was installed, they logged off and no longer had access to my computer. I had to log into something (don't remember what it was) in order to give them temporary remote access. It was actually quite simple.

probably GoToMyPC or something similar. - NM

I was hoping to apply for a job that requires this, but even after googling it, I don't really understand if this is something I would need to buy or what. I'm also wondering how jobs are sent back and forth when transcribing in MS Word. I've only worked on actual transcription platforms, Cornerstone, DQS, etc., that had a simple upload/tra ...

Scary Software

During my first visit with a new doctor yesterday, I wondered why I was not presented with the usual "book of history" to fill out beforehand.  As the nurse was asking questions, she was busy clicking on pull-down menus, etc.   On her computer screen was software called SOAPware, and there, formatted into SOAP format and all, I saw my replacement.  Later, in the exam room, the FNP was using the software as well as we went along, after exam, labs, etc.  I made a comment ...

Software Programs

I've worked for 3 different MTSOs. each bought out by another. I was never aware of the type of software programs used by these companies as the work platforms were "proprietary." I'm currently looking for part-time work and notice that most all job applications are asking for the name of or type of software programs used. How do I find out this information? As an example, Webmedx used Enterprise, but I have no idea what software program was used to create this platform. How do I ...
