How to Look Like an Idiot in 3 Easy Steps

Do I have to buy the dictation equipment or the doctor? Can I use the software with moer than one client? We are moving and this is key to keeping my job. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks so much in advance for all help! ...

I got an email saying they are now offering EHR training. I haven't checked to see how much it costs yet. ...

Can anyone tell me where I would find the steps to go about becoming an IC? Once I learn how to legally become an IC, then what do you do, just send your resume to the various companies? I would like to investigate becoming one. Thanks so much. Deidre. ...

I just finished the Etrain for Emdat Inscribe and at this point not sure how I will like this platform. It seemed as though it involves a lot of steps to do everything. Is this because I'm just not used to it and will it get better for me as I begin to do work? Lately every company I work for has some awful type of platform that makes it impossible to produce a good amount of work. Please share your experience in how long it took you to become proficient on this platform. Thanks ...

or is EVERYTHING on line. Wondering how hard it would be to backtrack to study for exams? ...

That can't make heads or tails out of the stupid blanks emails? ...

I truly, truly wish these idiots who call themselves physicians had to listen to and transcribe their own dictations. I am so frustrated right now I could just about pull my hair out. Being a greeter at Wal-Mart is looking very enticing right now. ...

Hi, I really do concur with "Raining Pennies" that it is very important to read the posting guideines. Otherwise, if you inadvertently breach the guidelines, you will wind up getting banned. I did breech the posting guidelines and I did get banned, but I'm back for one more chance at staying within the "posting guidelines." "Raining Pennies" was correct about how I breached the guidelines. I quoted some language that I should not have quoted. And I apologize to the owner ...

He speaks very clearly but I have never heard this, and for all I know, it could be a fairly common word but again... He's still talking about that Thurston-Holland fragment of the Salter-Harris fracture, and he says "This required taking down the callus meticulously with the Freer elevator and then *s/l ka-PUNJ-ee-ing* it over." Thanks again if anyone knows. ...

When you use a cphone, can the hospital or anyone hear you talking while you are dialed into the hospital? On two occasions, I said something out loud, like what should have been a silent question (working at home too long, I now talk to myself, ha ha) but on BOTH occasions, my job emailed me the answer to my question within like five minutes of me saying it and I was just wondering. Thanks. ...

I have had it with these idiots who can barely dictate for making smacking noises. That is right up there with burping/eating/peeing/chewing gum/driving/mumbling/groaning/ uhh, uhhh, uhhhh/playing with the dog/helping the kids with their homework while dictating. If dictators were held to the same standards of dictation that we are held to as MTs, only a handful would still be dictating. Let's cut THEIR pay when they are idiots and smack loudly after each word. ...

FINDINGS PA and lateral views. Comparison exam 4/30/07. The lungs appear clear. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is within normal limits. IMPRESSION Unremarkable chest. <???> changes from 4/30/07 exam. I was thinking it sounded like "No speculative changes" but it's very blurred and sort of sounds like "noticed the beginning of changes" but that doesn't make much sense. I just can NOT make out what the dictator is saying! A more experienced MT will probabl ...

Make a sign - use cardboard, paint, real easy. It will say "OCCUPY M*MODAL" or "OCCUPY ACCENTUS" (I just pull names out of a hat). Then list one or two of the most egregious abuses on the sign. Extra points for humor or good zingers. Go stand somewhere in public. Maybe connect up with Occupiers in your area. Just stand there with your sign. Have a friend take a pic,and post it online. Maybe stand outside a local hospital or other health care clini ...

I just found out that the company I work for is going to start using Bayscribe next week. I never heard of it untill now. I currently use Word with my own word expander. Does any one know if it is productive and easy to use? ...

The patient is recovering from a broken hip. She is supposed to use her Easy Bike? Is that correct spelling or is it something else? Thanks. ...

Procyte and Prosight I know that Prosight is a multivitamin. I found both on WebMD's drugs and meds A-Z. There was no information on Procyte. It was just listed as Procyte Top. I was not aware that there was a Procyte until earlier today. The doctor dictated "And be careful you use the correct one, but I am unsure of the spelling." That confused me a bit, so I did some research and the only place that I found any mention of Procyte was on WebMD. An ...

Do you have to go to a lot of screens to enter demographic data? Is there a lot of downtime? Is the VR program fairly decent or are they putting every dictator on it and then the MLS has to straighten it out. ...

Hello! I have been contacted to do some ortho backup which I have never done. Just wondering how difficult this is to learn. They tell me all docs are pretty good dictators. TIA. ...

...and probably those of some other companies as well. Transcend supervisors are expected to oversee teams of up to 35 MTs, keep the account in TAT, mentor their people to improve their performance, ride herd on "mavericks", monitor the account status and do all of the other typical supervisory chores.... ....while transcribing 75 to 80% of the time. ....in exchange for which they are paid a stipend of $700 a month. Now, there is so much wrong with this picture that I won't b ...

"Chest: Clear to auscultation bilaterally with s/l an easy workup reading. He had equal breath sounds heard throughout." I don't know what "easy workup reading" actually is. ...

a word expander like Speed Type would do that? And can you use Speed Type along with MS Word? And transfer over all your AutoCorrect entries easily? I emailed the company but haven't heard from them. : ( ...

Does anyone know if there is an easy to assemble 24 dot matrix printer? ...

People who are new to coding get confused about credentials. There is some great information in the pages below if you read what has been written on here for months, and I definitely recommend doing that. You will learn more than you can imagine. I thought I would try to put it in a short, easy-to-understand format, specifically designed for MTs who are transitoning to coding. CCS and CPC - Impressive! Marketable skills. This is comparable to a medical transcriptionist who can type ...

Not saying anyone would ever possibly want to get OUT of MT, but if there should be some lunatics on the board who are thinking this way, well... ...

Is this an easy program to learn? I have applied for a few posiions and was wondering about it. ...

Two questions please: Does anyone working on the new oncology account and if so, how is it? Good dictators, easy platform, etc.? Secondly, is it just me or does TTS have more paperwork for a new hire than I have ever seen in my life? I've surpassed 75 pages at this point and the emails are still coming!! I've never worked for an MTSO that does this. ...

How is the eScription software - good, bad, easy, difficult, frustrating, blah, blah ...

Thinking of applying to KS. The position I would apply for uses Meditech. I have only used Escription, so how do these compare? Thanks !! ...

I have never worked for a company that uses a platform before, always an FTP site and word, so this is new to me. Is it hard to learn, easy to count line count, etc.?? I am bringing up old messages here that say nothing but negative about it and I'm starting to get nervous, but those were from 2008 or so, so maybe it's better now?? ...
