Question abt MModal's VR program please? sm - Soon to use MM MT


Posted: May 02, 2012

Can anyone share if the MModal VR platform has the option to attach the cursor to the voice on screen?  I ask b/c I used MModal at a different employer years ago and it did not work, driving me nuts!  Now my current hospital is moving to the MModal platform and I'm just curious if the VR has improved to allow the cursor to "move with" the voice?  TIA for any info.

Holy Moly, that's THE 1st THING I TURNED OFF - L&L

because it is sooooo slooooow.

If you like it, it is on the 6-point versions of VR. Don't know about the DQS 7 because I'm not using it yet.

Yes it has that function. - nm

MM VR does lots of neat tricks (facetious). - Teardrop

The best trick is making up filler words to try and compose sentences. Something the Human MT is forbidden!

I Hate the Auto Cursor - Tired MT

I use my own keystrokes with the cursor. The VR isn't smart enough to have something "auto" going on. Use ctrl + arrow key to keep track word by word. Just the arrow key to follow each letter.

New Incentive Program.....
Mar 15, 2010

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 ...
