Cerner platform is clunky and it sucks!

Does anyone type in Cerner using the Cerner transcription platform? How did you get around the auto correct issue or speedtype, as nothing holds in the auto correct application. Would appreciate any ideas on this matter. Hard to type without some kind of short cut application. ...

Slow to upload, slow to download, lagging when pushing the pedal. Sometimes freezing up all together. It just seems very clunky today, unlike lately, at least for me. I was just wondering if anyone else is having trouble. ...

Anybody ever work using Cerner? Our radiology account is changing from RPMS to Cerner this fall. ...

I have started working on Cerner Classic and am -- after having worked for many years on other programs -- finding it both incredibly difficult and frustrating. The most prevalent error message I am getting is "Editing not allowed," and I need to know how to cancel/get out of that without having to ditch the report and starting it all over again. Thanks. ...

Just recently started a new job for a local hospital that uses Cerner. I am finding it clumsy, hard to use, and time consuming, thus not optimizing my line count. I am paid by the line, not per hour. Anybody have experience using Cerner as opposed to other programs used by MTSOs? Thanks. ...

Has anyone worked with Cerner doing transcription. Facility is switching to this company and would like to know what impact Cerner has on transcription. Thanks for any comments. ...

Anyone worked on this before? I'm having a terrible time setting up "quick words" that I've easily done in the past using Word. There is so much garbage on my screen--info I don't need at all to do my job. The font is so small I can't read it. No medical spellchecker at all! My "training" was a joke--I don't think the trainer had a clue about what a tnanscriptionist needs. I was told it was designed for the doctor to fill in ...

Has anyone worked on the Cerner system doing editing? I work in an acute hospital that is implementing Cerner and they said there is no editing on the voice recognition except for the provider. Can anyone tell me about this or the experiences they have had with Cerner? ...

When we are in a report that requires a blank, and the report is corrected/changed by another MT in Cerner Radnet, is the line count from that report given to the MT who corrects/changes the report? In radiology, the long reports are the ones which tend to require some investigation or confirmation by physician, and of course, the long reports give us the lines. Is it true that we are essentially handing our lines to the MT fortunate enough to find our job in their queue for minor co ...

There are probably only a few people who have used this system. Hopefully, they come onto this board and have used IT with Cerner/RDE (black screen). When I maximize my RDE screen (black), the font is perfect. However, when I attach my word expander (Instant Text) to it, the screen minimizes and the font goes from perfect to just barely visible. Anyone out there using Cerner RDE and IT together who can help me? Thank you, comrades :) ...

Hello, and thank you for being here :) Facility did an upgrade a few days ago. Cerner Rad Imaging program is now giving me issues when insert IT macros - This message comes up when I attempt to insert any phrase or data that is lengthy - requiring i type all first initials of the sentence/phrase whereas before, if it was the only selection, my canned phrase would appear. MESSAGE: "cannot read from or write to clipboard (1-1603)" After many attempts, returns, backspaces, it finally spi ...

- You work full-time, often more than 40 hours a week, and you still qualify for food stamps, special rates on your utilities, and partial unemployment because actual dictation you get each day is so sparse. - Although you're one of the "lucky" ones who has some form of insurance, you still don't visit a doctor because you can't come up with the copayments. - It's been years since you actually went inside a retail store and bought a new item. You can no longer even im ...

On paper, some of the changes sounded good, like the auto numbering. But in practice it seems like all this new version does is cause DQS to run much more slowing, constantly locking up, auto-saving (and slowing down) too often, amongst other irritating little things. Why can't their upgrades ever actually be an UPgrade. I think they need to start calling them DQS downgrades. And what I hate the most is in the ADT screen where you used to be able to just hit enter, ...

I guess we are all going to get mentored at one point or another as I just received an email to set me up for it. I make over the lph and get all my required hours in each week so I don't see why I am being mentored at all. Like I said, I guess we have no choice and will all be mentored sooner or later. This sucks! ...

Who agrees with me? Can't wait to get the hell out of there, very soon I hope! They have their job postings on MTjobs.com because it's a revolving door there, not because of new accounts. ...

Let all the part-timers work over the weekend because there is a lot of work, so they dont get paid overtime and then on Monday morning the full-timers have no work. The bean counters got it down to a science! ...

ASR: This is because of the patient recently had a TSH of 270 metabolic stress he has had assistant cold for the past 3 years. CORRECTED: The patient is a 6-month-old female who is here today with her mother and brother. The patient has had a persistent cough for the past 2 months. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? I probably got 6 words that was correct in the whole fricken report. I am counting down the days until I am outta of transcription for good. Dict ...

The global MTSOs have ruined everything good about becoming an MT. 1. Flexible hours (our time, not theirs)- gone 2. Good pay/livable wage - gone 3. Unlimited income (lots of work, anytime) - gone 4. Self esteem - gone Remember the good ol' days? These metrics and the micro managing are for the birds. Give me a break. ...

The Eye for Quality poll for today...you choose the person who has the best "eye for quality" and they get an ADDITIONAL $100 gift card. um no thank you they can all kiss my butt. Why not give the rest of us a shot at a gift card instead of someone else who has been recognized monetarily???????????? i'm not voting and neither should you. ...

Beware anyone thinking about working for Ascend! They are extremely unorganized and chaotic. I don't know why they make you submit invoices - which are very time consuming to prepare - when they will just pay you something different or not at all. They shorted my first paycheck by 1/3. When I was finally able to get in touch with someone, they did send me the adjustment.... but I have not received my last paycheck at all!!! I have tried to contact them several ...

just leave bad enough alone? And I thought we were supposed to be able to make timecard corrections ourselves. I see no place to do that. I don't even see a place like before where we would ask the CCM to do it. So now I have a stamp on there I accidently made and can't remove it. Thanks again MQ. ...

I have a great job working at home editing. I love it. I've been in transcription 12 years but lately have the worst concentration ever. I find myself getting distracted by the Internet..Facebook, Google, Yahoo, CNN. You name it I'm there in between reports. I know I'm not giving it 100% at work and wish I could concentrate!! FWIW I can't sleep either. Total insomniac. I'm not very productive because of this distractibility and it concerns me a lot. Does anyone have tips ...

Ask anyone what's happened to earnings in this field over the last 10 years. If you have a penchant for the macabre, try the last 20 years. I won't bother with the details because you already know them. Well, you put up with it, didn't you? While the population of ESL dictators exploded and VR came on the scene, while the sheer number of medical devices, instruments, procedures, tests and other terminology we deal with doubled and then tripled, while benefits were hac ...

Back in the 80s and 90s, we had to put up with fuzzy tapes, but I would have thought that by 2014 this would no longer be an issure. I'm so tired of struggling to hear voices that sound like they're speaking through a long tube or under water. ...

So, remember the days way back when we got paid well, were appreciated and could be happy to be MT? Wow I miss that! I hate MTSOs. They all act like we only have work to worry about, they trash you, but never say any good you do. One trainer or QC person grades your work as 99%-100%, another picks apart every comma, period, etc. calling things "critical errors", that honestly aren't! You ask to advance in your position, but no "you're not ready" (after 15 years and previously being a ...
