Does Transcend pay for headers in their templates or do we

I tried to verify my line counts by doing a copy and paste into word from their system. The only way I can come close is if I exclude all those "automatic" headers that are included in the templates. Does anyone else experience that? This really knocks a lot of characters out of my reports. ...

I have gone through older posts and they are conflicting about this. Do they pay for headers and footers if you manually put them in? I can understand them not paying for automated headers (cheap, but many companies do it that way), but if you have to manually add them do they pay? ...

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 know this has been here on the past but for some reason I still feel very suspicious about this. Can anyone enlighten me if we are paid for headers? I know somewhere around the time when they came out with the magnificient rewards plan I remember reading we do not get paid for headers that were not in their little Control-H box or whatever they call. If you had to make up a heading that was not in the headers box we did not get paid for this. Can anyone please let ...

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? ...

Somehow turned off those pesky mandatory PE and DS headings on the left and cannot remember how or where to get them to turn back on. Anyone know? Thanks. ...

Any MTSOs pay for headers/footers on each document? If so, it is a flat number of lines per document, or is it the header and footer on every page? ...

I have a bunch of follow-up notes and the doc wants each note on a different page all in one document. The problem is some of these individiual notes end up being two pages. Anyone know how to make second page headers for each patient like this? I would like to keep the actual document header and not just space down under the header and put one in, if that makes sense. Oh, and it's Word 2003. Thank you! ...

I wonder if there are any companies that pay a good line rate and also pay for the headers and footers, any company info would be greatly appreciated, thanks ...

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. ...

inserting themselves and changing whole blocks of text to red. Very hard to undo. Just started today. Is it April 1 in India yet? #%*%^&%% ...

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! ...

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. ...

but I could absolutely swear I have an email from her ages ago that said we were. I may spend some of my vacation going through my 350,000 MQ emails to find this. Does anyone really know. If we weren't; I'm really PO'd I spent any time on them. ...

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 ...

Before I shoot my mouth off, I just wanted to verify, and I can't get a straight answer from management. Is it REALLY REALLY REALLY true we do not get paid for demographic information/searching, cc searches and headers in text of report. Is that correct?? Thanks guys, I am fuming in the Southeast ...

Kind of stumped on this one. I just recently started working for a company that does both VR and straight typing. Luckily, have been doing more straight typing than VR, but noticed that after I did 20 or so reports my line counts were around 600-750 lines for those 20 reports. Well I found out that the headers are not counted in our lines even though we may have to enter a date and sometimes even the patient name. I was told by one of the supervisors that this is "now the ...

HELLPPPP...anyone good at figuring out how to make a template? client has a form that they sent and it has headers and footers each page. They have a separate letter form, consult form and chart note. Then there is a summation sheet at the beginning and STAT sheet at the end. They want all of this done in one long document, i.e. hard page break between each patient. I have played with this till blue in the face. If I try to put the plain summation sheet first, ...

I am quite tired of it. ...

For some reason when calling up the templates I am inserting my password yet every time it does not hold it, puts something else in and then my report freezes wht my being unable to get out of anything, template, report, etc and have to restart. Does anyone have any idea why this is going on and how I can be able to use the templates again? ...

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 work on eScription and was wondering how to handle this... I think speech on this platform is generally great, except when the speaker wants to use a template. And by template I mean the basic headings and occasional standard blurb that goes in (that they do not dictate but want in there). So when speech gets a hold of it, you end up inserting the template and then wasting all kinds of time cutting and pasting the pieces to wherever they go. Is there a better way?? ...

Did VR develop Alzheimer's? It has lost everything. I am tired of no commas, periods, and everything else it reverted back to since its infancy. It is really true that now you can transcribe faster than you can edit. Does anyone even care? Do you know how many times you have to stop in the middle of labs to put in punctuation? This has been going on for over a month and I haven't noticed any big push to get it fixed. Just another way to m ...

Does anyone remember in the conference calls, mention of MDI/Transcend paying for unlimited long distance phone charges for employees? I remember this being mentioned but can't recall all the details; if it was for FT only, everyone, etc. Does anyone remember details and if that still stands? ...

I am curious as to if the TLs are meeting their requirements. They are expected to type 75-80% of their time and get paid by the line as well . I am very suspicious that they are not typing VR all day, having their work sent to India, etc, and are getting the straight typing. They get paid a flat fee per month for their administrative duties on top of that. I wonder if they are experiencing no work and looking at a blank screen most of their time& ...
