How many keystrokes will we lose with 6.1? - like the number list, for instance

Posted: Sep 04, 2010

With the number feature, we just do Ctrl Sft L and all that is put in, but now we will not get paid for typing these and we will not get paid for the commands either...

Same with the headings. I bet we wont be paid for those either.

Was this upgrade implemented to cost us more lines to not be paid per report????

Could you not use CTL/SFT/L and still do your own numbering? - L&L

I'm doing the tutorial on Mon; I'm emailing my CCM with the pass codes; I'm uploading 6.1 when h*ll freezes over.

Just my observation of DQS 6.1 - I like the new DQS

[ In Reply To ..]
I have been working with the new DQS 6.1 now for 2 days and I LOVE the auto numbering, MORE than makes up for any keystrokes lost in time as far as I am concerned, especially with ASR. For instance, you know when you get one of those reports where the medication, etc., list is long and you get halfway through it or even to the end and the dictator changes their mind and in some way edits the list? Well, now you do not have to take the exhustive time to change all the numbers, it is automatic, no numbers to worry about. I can get through an ASR report faster now just because of that one change and I know the time saved more than makes up for any keystrokes that might be lost. As far as the headings, I just use my expansions as before (made from my accounts preferred headings) and so do not see any difference there. Actually, this new upgrade is not costing me any time at all and is in fact saving me time and thus getting more lines a day with ASR.

The only problem I did have was that when you hit delete in ASR for more than 5 words, it automatically puts in a skip marker, but now I just delete the skip marker instead of trying to remember not to hit delete.

why do you delete a skip marker that belongs there? - huh?

It seems that they probably put this in to make sure that the audio stays aligned with the text. Why would you delete it?

"They" were actually referring to a different incident, a few days before this one, where I had signed off after being bounced around for 1-1/2 hours and could not make heads nor tails of the ESL dictators. I had sent in an explanatory note that time too. Anyway --- there was a viable two-way conversation. They didn't make a big deal out of the form -- told me to just sign it and forget about it --and it eventually will fade into remote history. For me, it's fine be ...

Okay-- finally got a few jobs to do after hours of NJA. But I lost my rhythm. I don't even know what to do with them. I feel like a cat looking at some strange object on the floor and tapping it with its paw. What are those two weird things in my queue? I look at them. Then I check my email. Then I look at the things in the queue again. Then I go get something to drink. In the back of my mind, it seems like there is something I need to do about those things in my queue, but I can' ...

Once again, I was down to my last few jobs, but hurrying to get them because I could tell from the list of jobs that someone else was eating up the dictation too. I had my download setting on 2 jobs. I was zipping through a 30-second dictation set to 150% playback, and once that was done, I was planning to do the other job in my queue and maybe one more, before there was no more work. But when I finished the 30-second job, the other job in my queue was gone, and all the jobs had vanish ...

I really would like to know the answer to this and wonder how to find out the true answer. Some (all?) of the hospitals are very demand and critical, so its impossible to believe they want their work to go to India. MQ is screwing up royally with their software for the MT's so I can imagine it is just as bad for the hospitals. My question is why is there and why has there been so little work throught the entire US? ...

If you woke up this morning with several hundred jobs out of TAT on a major account for IMEDX, you should not be surprised. Imedx made their bed when they offered 12 hour TAT versus the 24 hour TAT that was prior, just to get an account. This is nothing new, this industry's MTSO have been lowering the bar just to get more accounts. QA over the years has gotten tougher, which a subjective 98.5% pass rate. When I tell everyone that my grandkid got a 97.4% on a test and was expelled, th ...

One of the things I have repeatedly written and warned about when it comes to outsourcing is the uncertain infrastructure that many foreign countries have - and I'm not just talking about their electrical grids. Foreign countries introduce huge elements of uncertainty (read, RISK) when it comes to their physical infrastructure, but also their social, governmental and legal infrastructures. And when it comes to something as CRITICAL as American healthcare records (which, may I remind ...
