I think all the bitter people on this board should have New Years Resolution, be nice. There is a saying; "People are just as happy as they make up their minds to be." Abraham Lincoln Happy New Year. ...

Over the last 3 years I have referred to this site infrequently and looked at posts and thought to myself "sounds like a bunch of bitter folks." I have tried to keep my "game face" on but I can't do it anymore. I moved to Nuance/Webmedx last December after Medquist purchased JLG and I was NOT about to work for them. What a huge mistake on my part, not that either were good options. My pay has dropped to minimum wage -- I now bring home MONTHLY what 4 years I had made pre ...

Thanks in advance!!! ...

I think it's time to hear from "the other side", so I volunteered myself. If you don't like it, too bad, but I will tell you the truth about how most MTSOs feel. Through the years, I have gotten to be friends or at least friendly with many other MTSOs, some who have sold their companies and got out, some who sold their companies and came back and some who have never sold their companies. I have been an MTSO for 24 years, and I was a transcriptionist and transcription ...

I must say, so not going to miss the bitter ornery folks on this board! Soo glad to be out!! Doing the happy dance as we speak! I hope you "steal" a few extra lines this week! ;) Enjoy that cushy day shift a few more days (yes, my tongue is in my cheek). I don't think there is anything cushy about wondering if you can pay your bills because MQ took all your old accounts and gave them away to their "old" employees without any regard for the people that had to work fo ...

Today ends an era of an 18-year career as a medical transcriptionist. I resigned a couple weeks' back to accept a position outside of the transcription industry. It is bitter sweet because transcription has been such a huge part of my life and became a part of my way of living. I won't trash talk Nuance today because it has absolutely no benefit. After all, I was able to muddle through the changes as well as what I see as unethical policies and procedures and wa ...

I have been out of the MT business for a couple of years but had an opportunity to do some parttime work. I have switched to a Macbook Pro and used to use Gearplayer and an Infinity foot pedal.

Can anyone tell me how to bring up old patient files on Escription/EditScript using version 8? My company just upgraded from version 6 becasue it is not being supported anymore. There are some changes between the two versions. They did not give any directions, just said you need to upgrade, so do this. I would really love to be able to go back and check things sometimes such as medications and previous diagnoses to make sure I hear them correctly, particularly when the sp ...

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. ...

I am saving all my client files from the last 3 months, as I have get to be paid. What am I supposed to do with these files? I am not getting rid of them because that is the only proof that I have that I worked for the company. I am trying desperately to retrieve my monies due, but as of now, nothing. I worked for 3 months and only received payment for 3 pay periods (5 weeks). This is a crappy company and I only wish that I had believed all of the negarive pos ...

I had posted before about problems playing files with WAVpedal on my Windows 7, 64 bit computer. Most of those problems have been resolved (thanks to my IT guy and NOT the tech guy at the software place). However, I still can't play .DSS files. I'm seeing elsewhere that I may need a codec or to convert these files in some way. Can anyone out there explain to me how I'd go about doing this? Thanks! ...

I downloaded test files and a trial version of the MS Word they want the reports typed in. I am having problems now figuring out how to play the MP3 files. Brain freeze, I guess. Do I have to unzip or do "something" with them to get them to play? Thanks so much. ...

Is someone able to help me with playing .rm or .ra files in Express Scribe? I have tried everything to download one file into Express Scribe. I did it one time, then my free trial ran out, so I had to uninstall/re-install, and now I cannot find any version that allows these type of files. I have also tried a converter, but do not want to purchase one because this is for a test. So, I'm wondering if there is a certain version of ES that does allow these files? OR, ANY other advice is gre ...

Hi: I don't mean to be stupid, but I am in the same boat a lot of you are and I can't t take this anymore. I started applying at other places but I have never worked for a co. that didn't supply me with all computer equip. I have a newer Dell computer and I think it meets all the requirements most places are asking for and I have Word Perfect not MS Word. I have a USB foot pedal. I think I am ready to go for some places, but can someone briefly educate me on ...

Can someone point me in the direction of a very simple, easy to download and use, free voice wave player for transcribing test documents.

I'm trying to find equipment/info that will convert microcassettes and mini cassettes to voice files. I found a company called Martel Electronics and they have exactly what I'm looking for but when you click on it to buy the equipment it skips over and goes to like a home page. I need something that will duplicate the tapes in speed recording time and not minute for minute or it will take me forever to convert. Any help would be appreciated. TIA ...

Hello, This is for the small MTSO or MT who serves a few clients: Which method are you using for accessing digital audio files? If FTP. are the dictators downloading them on your website or are you accessing them from theirs? Anyone here using one of the services for this? If so, which one and how is the cost working out? Also was interested in info on transcribing/player software, particularly QuickScribe. Thanks. ...
