Working in escription, unable to call up templates

Okay, I am curious about templates such as normal exams, things that are templated. Do you get paid for them. I'm working for a group that has decided not to pay us for those and is actually taking money away from us on notes because they have templates in them. Anyone ever heard of this? Should I put my running shoes on now or what....??:) ...

Does anyone know the going rate for qualified text? Between that and the templates my accounts uses, my line count is down by at least half. The company I am with now pays 1 cpl for QT and the templates that load require more time to delete headings, cut, paste and move around than the actual typing. We use Emdat, which is a good platform, but the templates and QT are only a benefit for the client (and company) and certainly not the MT. I think this is probably worse than ...

I've been with MQ for about 2 months now. I've noticed that many, many of the dictators use what we used to call "standards" or templates. We just inserted the canned text and made changes where indicated. Is this allowed? I know some has their own (crtl S), but can I make my own and use them? ...

When you have a dictation with a template that you have to pull in and it is ASR (why they ASR this is beyond me) do you hit the F11 to clear it out since it takes longer to move junk around. ...

I don't know why the templates aren't in line with account specifics--the fonts are all over the place, headings are bolded, words are abbreviated and slashes are used...sometimes there are blatant misspellings. What QA approved these templates? These are what we are to use over and over again? They're all WRONG!!! I find it ironic that these are the templates provided to us by Nuance, and over 50% of them do not comply with their own standards. Yet we're supposed to take ou ...

when the doctor either changes almost everything in the template or the template is merely headings and I have to copy and paste the whole friggin report paragraph by paragragh and then edit it. What a waste of friggin time!!! Thanks for the vent! ...

lose all those characters too? My line count seems way too low for the amount of typing I have to do and the number of corrections I have to make. ...

Hi - I have a question regarding counting templates. I have a new doc who wants me to only count what he dictates, and not the templated review of systems, past medical history, social history, etc. which is all unchanged (unless he says to change it). Do you cut and paste your work into a "count" file to get the total, or do you tell the doctor that it has to be included in the count. And what about the times he does make changes to the "templated items". I welcome any suggestions. ...

I'm wondering if 5 cents a line with 40% templates is a decent pay rate. This is all straight typing, no VR. Anybody else in this situation? I need to make a decision. Thanks for any info! ...

We are inundated with sloppy dictators, perhaps the ones that can't use VR. We know how much they hate to dictate repetitive ROSs and PEs, thus they love using templates, or paragraphs from previous reports. Does anyone else note a lot of doctor errors in using these methods, i.e. racing through and not changing all the template details? I have found that NPs and female doctors are able to multitask and get this right, but the only males that can do this are the older ones who have a lot o ...

Who is responsible for adding the templates? I am finding a lot of errors lately in these when I pull them in. For instance, spacing. Several, if not many, are only single spaced between the end of a sentence and the next and only 1 space after a colon. Yet another thing to slow us down. Got "dinged" for pulling one in and not changing. I assumed (yes we all know what happens when you assume). That will never happen again if I can help it. Also noticing 1 space between state ...

I don't know about the rest of you but I have very few male doctors who are careful enough to adequately edit normal templates to meet the patient's particular criteria. It's gets pretty time consuming to do it myself, especially when we are not qualified to do this in every instance. Female doctors almost always attend to these details. NPs, PAs do a much better job than the male docs, but few male docs either care, feel it is their job, or take responsibility for this editing. ...

I am tired and frustrated from applying and sending out resumes only to be ignored. It is like a game with them, I think. MedGarde even has an interview which has absolutely nothing to do with your skills or qualifications. In fact it seems like psychological testing to see if you are mentally competent or something like that. I swear I feel like a mouse that is being tested and run through a maze to see how well you perform, but even mice will get the prize or food event ...

I am considering requesting this pay which (depending on the state) considers us to be on-call and must be paid for part of our shift if no work. I have had it up to here with Nuance and running out of work, adding more and more accounts and STILL no work. Got a second job and STILL being screwed by Nuance in the sense that I cannot rely on my first job (income wise), because when there is enough work they manage to screw my cpl with their lovely FIESA, then as soon as I have no errors the work ...

Has anybody had the experience where they can't log into work? I can access some sections of it but not the actual transcription areas. I haven't received anything at all about having a disciplinary action to cause it. ...

The doc is saying " This PI (hear as PI, not sure what it is) is a 9-year-old white male who is in good health and ( I hear it is cola, after the and, could it be colon?) earlier this am when he presented quick complaints with headache, fever, chills _____ ( hear as provia)for next to his nausea and vomiting ____ ( hear as " times wound). Looks like I cannot get on in this field much longer, if I hear to doctors transcribing this way. Please help! ...

Physical examination was significant only for a soft abdomen with bloody urethra zurnich. Is there a word as zurnich? I am unable to find the word. ...

Try to log in and it sits for a few minutes and then says unable to connect?? Anyone else?? ...

First I was kicked off and now I can't reconnect to DocQScribe. I made a ticket and will try back in a bit. Anyone else have any idea as to what other hoops I should jump through? ...

All I get when I try is the message..."internet eplorer cannot display the webpage." It is not my computer as I tried this on both the MQ Computer and my laptop. ...

Anybody else having this problem today on ADT search? "Unable to contact database." I never had this problem before, so do you know if we are supposed to complete reports like this? Thanks. ...

Can't do an ADT search. Great way to improve productivity... ...

if someone on here knows if Transcription At Its Best pays for spaces or not. I see they pay per 55-char line and usually that means no spaces. TIA ...

Been trying to upload my job for over an hour and can't get there via google or IE. ...

Anyone else unable to access our work email? ...

I guess I HAVE to make up all time I can't access Beyond TXT tonight or I'll lose my benefits (not enough hours). You'd think they'd manage to pay people when it's THEIR software that's not working. ...

I can login to Fluency but I can't get into the intranet for schedule source or email? It says it won't connect. TIA ...
