I had a company send me an IP address to take a test. Once I e-mailed them back and asked what in the world am I suppose to do with this, they told me I had to have a FTP program. I tried one and it confused me to no end. Does anyone have any ideas on FTP programs? Thanks a lot! ...

The abbreviation "q.d." is listed as one of the dangerous abbreviations and we are not supposed to use it, ever. Yet when someone dictates the word "daily" in a report, ASR routinely substitutes "q.d." in its place. This is just wrong and has to be corrected manually. ...

Are there any free fax software programs? ...

I like how they try to make this seem great. It's probably no better or worse than we were before with the monthly incentives. When I got that email that said "line rate change" I really thought it was another pay cut. I tried to figure how much the increase would be. I figured that the raise would give me 7 cents more per hour or about 56 cents a day? That can't be correct, although considering who we are dealing with.....maybe it is? How do you figure exactl ...

I downloaded ExpressScribe but the sound isn't that great. I'm not sure if it's my file or if there's a better FREE program to download. The files I'm trying to transcribe are .dss. Don't mean to be cheap, but I don't want to buy a program to test on if I'm not going to need it later. ...

Eiight years ago I took a transcription course through a local school that offered the SUM program. It was intensive training for nine months and earned a certificate for completing the program. I went to work for a local hospital and transcribed doctor's dictation; which included ER, radiology, psych, and scope reports. Plus various reports that came accross overnight, I worked the 3-11 pm shift. I did this for eleven months, until the hurricains hit Florida and fo ...

I just received information in the mail from Penn Foster for their medical coding and billing program. The booklet says that the program will provide students with the skills necessary to obtain entry-level employment as medical coders, coding specialists, medical billing specialists, and medical insurance clerks. It also says that you can earn 18 credits toward an associate degree in medical assistant or 17 credits toward an associate degree in health information technology at Penn ...

it is virtually impossible to get your required lines without working 10-12 hours a day. I have never seen such a mess. It is worse now than when it was first started. Nothing makes sense. The numbers it spews out are all wrong, medications are a joke, and even the word associations are unbelievable. Isn't someone supposed to be monitoring this program to make sure it works or is this just another burden added to the MLS to fix a mess without getting paid extra ...

now I don't know if I want to be a coder :(. I planned on taking the CPC and then after a few years taking the CCS. Before I started my program, I was naive and didn't realize how difficult and complex coding is. I don't know that I can sit in front of a computer for 8 hours and code all day long. It's almost too much like MTing (desk work, I mean). Plus, I am not confident in my ability to even pass the CPC. I am not very satisfied with th ...

I need some suggestions on an expander program that works with Word 2010. I have downloaded the free trial of Instant Text and do not like it. I want something simple. Bells and whistles not needed. TIA! ...

I've been out of transcription for a couple of years and wonder what the most popular expansion program is now. I loved PRD before it expired years ago. More recently used Abbreviate for it's ability to provide formatted text (bold print, etc) in the short forms so an entire H&P format could be saved. Is that still on the market? I'm not sure if Abbreviate is still on the market. Any suggestions for current programs. Thanks m ...

I'm researching MT schools and weighing the various pros and cons. On my shortlist are two schools that use the SUM program--Andrews & MTEC--and two "schools" that I can't get confirmation on--CareerStep and Ed2Go. Any insights on the latter? Thanks! ...

I used to use Abbreviate for short forms and loved it. That was a couple of operating systems ago. Is anyone still using that? Does it work with Vista or Win XP? I think the company went out of business which is unfortunate. ...

I am losing my marbles so here's the short story. I have an account that I charge 2 different rates on -- a STAT rate and non-stat rate. Do any of you MT's out there use a program that can invoice a client for 2 different rates but input info only one time? I currently have a program that is pretty easy but am running 2 separate invoices for STAT and non-STAT then manually combining the two. Any suggestions would be appreciated. ...

I have my AA in HIT and have my RHIT and I'm looking at the WGU program to get my RHIA. Has anyone taken or in this program? I see that this program has a lot of computer courses and computer certifications. I'm kind of worried about that part as I've never been good with computers and have a hard time retaining computer knowledge. Any experience with this program? ...

Read E-mail about referral program bonuses and plans, talking about needing lots of MTs for lots of shifts. Oh, the reason I am taking the time to post here is that I have NSA again. Have 3 accounts and occasionally help on a couple of others. Work will come in later this morning, but the problem is can only make up the NSA time on Friday afternoon/evening. That truly sucks. Guess I better spend my down time referring friends to Nuance huh?&n ...
