I've been approached by a local physician to take over his transcription. He dictates from home right now, into his computer. I think maybe with EMDAT? My guess would be that the voice files are created and held somewhere, and his current company/transcriptionist goes in and gets them and somehow transcribes and sends them back via the computer. Anyway, I've been out of the loop for long enough that I'm searching for a low cost, easy way to get his files to ...
I do completely straight typing & have abbreviations in my computer that I use. I add to them but would like to know how people are increasing their line counts and get 20,000+ with straight typing in 80 hours (2 weeks)?? Any input would be appreciated! TIA ...
I haven't seen any notes lately on the New MTs forum, but it's still "there." Does anyone know if they're getting rid of it, or is something funny on my end? Been this way for quite some time. ...
How do you like the new forum layout?
I must say that I really got used to it and I now like it better than the previous one.
I especialy like the list at the bottom of the newest posts with the floating little window, indicating what it is about.
Thanks! ...
For some reason, after I read a post, the subject isn't changing colors, so that I know what posts I've read. I use Vista with Google Chrome as my browser.
Thanks! ...
The people on this coding forum are so pleasant and helpful. If someone gets cranky, it only seems to last for a minute and, unlike many other forums, people don't jump in and start battles. Also, people don't seem to get so defensive or take things personally the way they do in other places.
There is an enormous amount of helpful information here and we get to see more than one side of everything, without battles. People respect each other's opinions even when they disagree. Thi ...
Hi everyone! I've seen posts where someone would say to contact them privately for whatever reason yet, unlike other forums, there seems to be no obvious way (to me, anyway), to send a private msg. to the poster. Am I overlooking something? Thanks! ...
There are so many message boards on the internet, but I always come back here. It's great to discuss issues to which we can all relate as MTs. Beyond that, MT Stars seems to have some of the most intelligent posters anywhere online.
Thanks again. ...
ANYONE who uses Windows 7 and Enterprise Express Editor..help me! I need to know how to go backwards to put in the date that a doctor saw a patient. On my old program, EXText, I did CTRL J and it went back. Now, it says that macros are disabled. I don't know how to make this work. ANYONE out there able to help me? I just went from an XP to a Windows 7 and from ExText to Enterprise Express Editor. They are very similar programs but these little changes are ...
I always held myself back from posting. I guess I'm "secretly afraid" that "spooks" are roaming around on the this Board, and if you say "enough" they'll find out who you are via technological "magic" which I don't really understand.
But, as I said a post or so back, "I Hit Some Kind of a Wall." The need to vent has overcome the need to exercise wisdom.
And besides, I'm looking or another job and at least I live in a big city that has a lot of data entry a ...
When reading this forum or when on ANY Internet site, if you are having trouble because the print is too small, hold down your Ctrl key while using the scroll on the mouse. Moving the mouse "wheel" up will enlarge the print; moving the mouse wheel down will make it smaller. This pretty much works on anything except for e-mails. Don't forget to keep the Ctrl key held down while you are doing this. ...
New pay plan was just announced and is going into effect ... WOW ... what a mess. Reading that page will make you want to count your blessings with MMoral. ...
please post how much you got paid per line. I think that really is why you all were let go because you made too much per line. We can narrow it down to that if you would all post how much you made. Thanks ...
Just wondering how the NJA problem is since 60 of us have moved on. We've had 2 new ILP accounts to QA (which are horrible) and 1 group hospitals that have come back from ILP land, but only recieved a small handful of MTs to compensate. My BOB has been swamped for the past week with late jobs every night. My TSM says that her manager said that there isn't anybody who can help out. I was just wondering if he/she is just too lazy to actually look. I know the ...
I just recently finished my MT course through At-Home Professions and Im just waiting to hear back on my final. I feel that I have done well as far as the terminology and looking things up but Im still not comfortable with my punctuation. Does anyone have any advice? ...
working on your accounts from your bought-out company, are you consistently running out of work? We were told things would not change for a while but I'm running out of work all the time. I tried to apply for SUI this morning online but with this particular situation, I could not answer some questions to complete application so I have to go down there, which I am getting ready to do. I don't want to quit but this is getting extremely frustrating punching in and n ...
For the past month, I've applied for an MT position with almost every MTSO who posts a job. I've tested with all of them, and I don't get a call back.
This is a new thing for me. I've been in the industry over 20 years, have done every specialty plus QA.
In the past when I've looked for a job I've found one in only one day. What's up? ...
Hi. I was contacted recently by PF, tested again in person, set up for training (which was later rescheduled but is apparently still on), and told I have the job, but so far I have been utterly unable to get anything like an actual offer letter or anything STATING the terms of employment, like pay, PTO, basic benefit info, etc. (and I have asked and asked). Is this normal for them or a recent development? Everything they have TOLD me in person and on the phone has been just what the PF employees ...
Volumes have skyrocketed in the accounts on my team, and while my manager is spewing off that it's just abnormally high volumes, I think it's because people have jumped ship.
I was wondering if those of you who quit and still visit this board could comment with your ex-TSM's initials. ...
