Scribe platform - Cjc


Posted: Apr 26, 2014

Looking for advice from current users of Scribe. I've been an MT for nearly 30 years and have always used Word. About to start with a new company that uses Scribe. I know it is Word-based, but I am concerned that all my auto text and macro entries that I rely on so heavily will not work on Scribe. And what about normal inserts that are 2-3 paragraphs long that I have set up to enter by just hitting a couple keys?  Also is it possible to just type in Word and copy and paste?  I don't like not being able to keep a copy of my work so I can easily keep track of my lines. Any and all advice is appreciated as I am pretty nervous about making this transition.  

Scribe is easy to use, a bit slow at times - sm - InkMT

I would not recommend working in it though, a bit slow. I just use my Word and copy and paste, simple to do. However if you work for the same MTSO, then you will not be in Scribe long anyway as they are switching over to some other platform, don't know what it is called though, just hoping that is the only change and we all keep our current accounts and pay.

Dragon Naturally Speaking Compatible With Scribe Platform?
Oct 02, 2014

I'm wondering if anyone knows if Dragon Naturally Speaking is compatible with Transportal's platform, I believe it's Scribe?  This is the home version, which worked quite well in the past.  I know there are a few that won't allow third party software and the program will be blocked.  I understand why as regard to HIPAA, etc.  I'm just trying to keep working as long as I can with RA. If anyone is using Dragon in conjunction with MTSO platform, I' ...

I have voice files sent to me that I cannot play in Windows Media or Express Scribe. They will load in ES but show 00:00 duration.  I thought possibly it was an encryption error as they possibly they are coming that way to be because they are secure but I sent to a friend and she can open them and play them.  Windows Media states something about a missing codecs and I have installed if known codecs to man (I am on Windows XP).  They just will not play or show the duration etc.&nbs ...

I Just Saw An Ad For A Medical Scribe
Jun 25, 2010

I just saw an ad for a Medical Scribe.  The description is that the MT accompanies the doc from room to room to see patients, sits at the computer in the room and transcribes the H&P/procedure while doc is doing the exam.  Starting pay was $17/hr with full benefits.  Anybody ever heard of this?  I think it's a good idea, leaves the doc hands free to tend to the patient.  It sounds a little like being a court reporter as far as "live" dictation being done. ...
