Speech wreckognition - Mae
Posted: Sep 14, 2011
Does anyone know of any company that does NOT use speech wreckognition. I dont care what they say about once you are used to it you can do twice as much in the same amount of time. I have NEVER found that to be true. What I do find to be true is it takes me just as long, sometimes longer to clean up the mess it makes and I do it for half the pay. Let me just say how much I DO NOT LOVE averaging about 4.00/hour cleaning up after speech wreckognition. And yes, I know it is recognition, but its such a dang mess that I think it should be spelled the way it really is.. a wreck, its wrecking this field and wrecking my paycheck and that is all before I get to the wreck on the page.
agreed! - drthumm
[ In Reply To ..]I completely agree with this. For those that say it is faster, I sure as hell do not know how? Editing takes me longer to do than actual typing, even though they have done "studies" so say differently. I would LOVE to work nothing but straight typing!
studies - Mae
[ In Reply To ..]The only studies done were probably by the peddlers of this speech wreck crap!! I bet if they did a poll of ACTUAL working MTs if it was faster or if it merited a full half cut in pay the answer would be an Epic No.
speech wreck - wise old woman
[ In Reply To ..]SoftScript is 100% straight typing. Only company I've found so far that is.
awesome!! - Mae
[ In Reply To ..]I will have to check into that because I am so very tired of getting paid nothing. Thanks!
Wreckognition (Perfect definition) - TiredMT
[ In Reply To ..]You are, oh, so right. They said editing would be faster than transcribing when rates were cut 50% more than a year ago. I have had to sell my house, could no longer afford it, too old to retrain in something else, thanks to wreckognition. They call us speech language specialists (SLS)HAH.

we have dictators who compose sentences such as this: "A xx-year-old female accompanied by daughter in secondary to within the last week has run out of her amlodipine, Prozac and clonidine anywhere from 3-5 days ago each of these." I kid you not, that is what this doctor said. American doc, speaking clear English. Now tell me, what am I supposed to do with that? It is a verbatim account, but the last time I let some gobbly gook like that go through I got chewed out for it (!) ...
Speech Impediments
Sep 14, 2011
This is a first for me. The doc is NOT ESL. But, it took me quite a while to figure out what she was saying when I heard, "The patient lickscrapitus in his knee." Later on, I realized that she was has difficulty with pronouncing some A's and E's correctly. So, the "lickscrapitus" was "lacks crepitus", which is also a rather odd way of making the statement, IMHO. Why don't the facilities/MTSOs notify the MTs when there is a doc on the account with certain s ...

All Work Going To Speech

I am hearing from some that by 2014 all medical transcription, maybe just the at home work is required by law to go to speech recognition? Has anyone else heard this? I figured it is just up to the individual companies to decide whether they choose for the work to be done straight or by speech recognition. If this is so, all of us at home workers won't have a choice and if we want to do medical work we will be forced into speech. ...

Speech Recognition Editing Course

AHDI, I know, is offering a speech recognition editing course. I've done a lot of copy editing in my previous clerical jobs. I've always been good at copy edit ...
