escription - Is this an easy program to learn? - ep


Posted: Aug 20, 2013

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

escription - okay

It is supposedly the easiest platform for the MT to "learn" but the platform is having a hard time "learning."

It is basically just proofing and correcting what is on the screen to what was actually dictated. Just remember to listen to everything, as it tends to put in sentences not dictated, and will sometimes insert who paragraphs (not sure where it comes up with everything it inserts).

But of all that I have actually worked with, this platform is definitely the fastest to learn, but still can't make any money.

How Long Does It Take A VR Program To Learn?
Dec 08, 2009

It's almost 2 months now on Escript and I'm still straight transcribing more than VR. I can see a lot of ready for editing reports but I hardly get any, and not getting my lines either. Some days, I only get 2 short VR reports. I'm in a really foul mood lately because of it. I'm still averaging a combination of 800 lines a day, rarely more, usually less, and I refuse to work over my shift until I get the necessary daily lines. It's bad enough I wind up working ...

I am in my last semester of an HIT program at my local community college.  This program is accredited through CAHIIM.  I actually found this program on the AHIMA website as an approved AHIMA coding program and was so excited that it was in my hometown.  Well, almost two years later and $4000 in student debt, I still have no idea how to code.  Sure, I'm great at Math 101 and English 101 and my anatomy is amazing, but I have no idea how to code.  One class that I have ...

Need To Learn New Accounts Or Learn DEP
May 26, 2011

Just got an e-mail today that we have to learn new accounts with new account specifics, in addition to working on our present account. They are sending our present account to India, but still keeping some of it. I don't know which would be easier - volunteering for a new account or learning DEP. I was told that if we start to type on DEP, they will have to send us a new computer with new programs, because we can't have Cornerstone and DEP on the same computer (probably).  I did a ...
