My hands are so sore from the huge number of corrections I am making

Does anyone have any suggestions for seat cushion/pad to help with a sore/numb rump and leg circulation? Thanks!! :D ...

Doctor dictates: "I do not believe the patient will benefit from explorative (s/l sore-ee) psychotherapy." I've looked everywhere and can find no type of psychotherapy that sounds like "sore-ree." Thank you for your help. ...

My back is aching, my spirit bummed. No matter how "hard" i work, it is never consistently fast enough to beat my old regular MT speed. Getting too old physically to work in such a stilted fashion. Maybe tomorrow will be better. Thanks for listening! ...

I was the one who posted about using a memory foam pillow, but after the next poster mentioned the Herman Miller Mirra chair, I decided to do some research. I ended up going to a used office supply store and purchasing a Steelcase Leap. Great chair, but the lumbar support didn't go low enough for my small frame. So after a week of lower back pain, I went back to the store and exchanged it for the Herman Miller. I just started using it today and already I'm thrilled. ...

doesn't matter to you, the MT will fix it. So what it takes MY time, so what it throws me off when I'm half way through the report and realize I may have it wrong and have to leave the screen, relisten to the beginning of the dictation, and change it..What do you care doc? you make a crap ton more money than I do, so obviously your time is more important.. ...

Can't find anything online or in books. ...

Unbelieveable..for years I have been typing comorbid, now I get a correction of co-morbid all throughout my report. In the past, I have been told to change cc to mL but then I got corrected by MME and so went back to cc, now I am corrected again that it should be mL. I have been told in the past, if it is not followup, then write it this way without a dash, follow up, no dash. Now I am corrected to put the dash in, follow-up. This is an ongoing thing with whichever ...

Why am I just now getting these stupid individual report audit/correction/notification/micromanagements? Can I anticipate more of these dragging out? What's the longest stretch between when you completed a report and received notification regarding one? ...

Three or four times in the last two days I have gotten one of those unfriendly FIESA MAJOR ERROR alerts . . . only, that's not my work. I know without a single doubt that I did not make those errors, and seemingly some of these so called 'errors,' would have been flagged by spellcheck. What's up with that? Offering rebuttal in their comment section is pointless, it's just a waste of time since no one really reviews those or sends any feedback. I'm just f ...

Has anyone been counted off in a post audit for corrections that QC made? ...

And they wonder why I can't make production??????? Looking forward to production proficiency mentoring later this month. Bring it on! ...

You know, where you have to stop and type in a "his," "the," "no," "were," "and," or separate a run-on into 2 sentences, add a "She" to a sentence, change a letter, join 2 sentences into one, etc., because VR goofed. This has been working well for me: Use SINGLE LETTERS (T, E, F, and so on) for the very most common words and corrections. Like T for "the," N for "no," E for "was", J for "has," F for macro that toggles letter from lower to upper and upper to lower ...

I have had so many dictators dictating the same PE, etc. and have to continually change the same things. Is there a way to make a heading such as CHEST from "the chest is..." work? I have one doctor whose "dilutional" is always speeched as DELUSIONAL. How can I make these corrections work. Suspect it requires a call to SUPPORT with job ID, ad nauseum documentation. I suspect that only IT can re-correct these Speech errors, and not us as was originally exp ...

I work on v 9, 10 and 11 and I have noticed that when I make corrections on some VR reports the corrections do not seem to stick by the time they get to QC. I have seen mistakes that I distinctly remember correcting while I am editing and then they show up as not corrected on the QC reviews. Thankfully it hasn't happened on post-audit but it is pretty upsetting. I had my TSM check a couple of them and sure enough, the mistakes were there when sent by me, so either I have become a hor ...

Does anyone know how to back up your autocorrections on Word 2003. I have a flashdrive I would like to put them on so that I can do a system restore. Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated. ...

Dictated: All cyst was removed, as well as osteophyte as well. Transcribed/Edited by me to read: All cyst was removed, as well as osteophyte. OFFSHORE CORRECTION: All cysts was removed, as well as osteophyte as well. This particular account is "modified verbatim" allowing us to change improper grammar and redundant/repetitive statements. So, I deleted the second instance of "as well" since it had already been said just ONE flipping word before! What do I get for ...

I swear the speech engine just makes up the output as it has no resemblence to what the doctor says! We got a note stating we were making too many errors and our quality had gone down, with a side note that QAM knows we are struggling to maintain our counts, but this does not matter. Every once in a while I get told to slow down. Heck,I doing the best with what I have and the fatigue of doing this all day. Only minor errors such as leaving in an extra pronoun or such. I don't ...

Any suggestions? It's really annoying makes typing difficult and I definitely cannot type with a band-aid on my finger. I'm one of those finicky MTs who takes forever to find a comfortable height of my chair, distance from the keyboard, height of my monitor, etc. And absolutely nothing on my wrists and hands! No rings, watches, bracelets, band-aids! I was considering putting super glue in the split, but then chickened out. ...

I'm in an HIT program after doing transcription for about 5 years and deciding that I'm tired of being a wandering sheep, and I just read the first chapter in one of my textbooks, which says that "speech recognition software is 95% to 99% accurate." I'll be pointing out in my class that that is a grievous error. ...

I had a HUGE eye opener yesterday. We are not the only ones who are being replaced by software, it is happening in every single industry - I read a big article yesterday announcing this "really cool" (the article's opinion, not mine) new way to place an order at Chili's - on an iPad type tablet that is brought to your table when you are seated - point and click. Then your order goes directly to the kitchen electronically and your dinner is brought to you by a staff member w ...

as we all know it is going to be totally different on 12/26..............why? Does anyone know what is happening the 26th? End of pay period is the 24th, 25th starts a new one so what significance does the 26th hold? ...

I guess I should plan for a week off for Valentines Day, hey? ...

I can't get to anything but the first page of my inbox. Oops, now can't even get that. Maybe I'll sit here and work on my Quality essay. ...

So, we were just informed that a huge account is being rolled out to EPIC and "assured" there would be "minimal" volume loss. Can somebody who has been through this please give us the true facts? I'm inclined to not want to drink the Nuance Kool-Aid. Thanks in advance. ...

worked for, I must admit that their unrelenting and harsh criticism of my work and their 99.7% plus demand for perfection has made me a better transcriptionist. I now work for a company where I acheive 100% on nearly all audits and had the same experience at another company before this one. I just knew I was better than N or M had me made out to be. ...

I've heard for maybe 10 years now that right now, 2010, is when vast numbers of MTs were supposed to hit retirement age and quit work. What is retirement age? I don't want to retire, but when does a person really need to retire even if they don't want to? ...

Small to medium-sized company lost a very large long-term client. Naturally, the MTs are to blame. Reason given was the work was out of turn around on weekends and MTs did not meet their commitments. I can't say what percentage of MTs did not meet their commitments. I do know that I always have. I also know that I have kept an accurate log of the work on this very large account and 75 to 90% of the time the work runs out on Sunday, with no work available on Mon ...

http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/medquist-awarded-contract-with-child-health-corporation-of-america-101383704.html It does say hospital is outsourcing, so does that mean India? In the latest example of its support for providers nationwide, MedQuist recently signed an agreement with Child Health Corporation of America (CHCA) for clinical documentation and computer-assisted coding technology and outsourced medical transcription and coding services. MedQuist will implemen ...

Anyone else one of the new hires? Are you on the new huge account? I've been twiddling my thumbs now. Guess I need to apply elsewhere. I had been told before it was a good company, but I need to be actually typing. That really is a lot of MTs to hire and then not have the new account begin. I read, below, someone said it keeps being delayed. ...

My hands are so sore from the huge number of corrections I am making - because of MM bad ASR.

Shaw would probably tell - you.

Just your hands? My head used to ache. - Here is the solution I came up with (sm)
