Like Crescendo But Some Problems - Ellen

I have been using Crescendo about 3-4 years now after having used EXtext before that. I really liked Crescendo until I started using the QA piece and it's not so user-friendly. Speaking from strictly a transcription standpoint it's great. We tried using the speech recognition of EXText but it didn't work out with our ESL docs. Crescendo is definitely Word-based and very easy to use.

Speech Editing. Oct 15, 2009My quality has gone down since the clinic that I work at started this. We use Dictaphone Extext. Anyway, I must be going too fast or something because I seem to miss things. Has anyone else had this problem? I have started reading over my reports myself now before sending them through and I asked my supe if they have improved. She said yes, but I still am making mistakes and she will send me my reports back shortly. The only thing else I know t ...

You Know, MQs Speech Wreck Is Bad Enough Nov 01, 2010we have dictators who compose sentences such as this:
"A xx-year-old female accompanied by daughter in secondary to within the last week has run out of her amlodipine, Prozac and clonidine anywhere from 3-5 days ago each of these."
I kid you not, that is what this doctor said. American doc, speaking clear English. Now tell me, what am I supposed to do with that? It is a verbatim account, but the last time I let some gobbly gook like that go through I got chewed out for it (!) ...
Speech Impediments Sep 14, 2011This is a first for me. The doc is NOT ESL. But, it took me quite a while to figure out what she was saying when I heard, "The patient lickscrapitus in his knee." Later on, I realized that she was has difficulty with pronouncing some A's and E's correctly. So, the "lickscrapitus" was "lacks crepitus", which is also a rather odd way of making the statement, IMHO.
Why don't the facilities/MTSOs notify the MTs when there is a doc on the account with certain s ...

Speech Wreckognition Sep 14, 2011Does anyone know of any company that does NOT use speech wreckognition. I dont care what they say about once you are used to it you can do twice as much in the same amount of time. I have NEVER found that to be true. What I do find to be true is it takes me just as long, sometimes longer to clean up the mess it makes and I do it for half the pay. Let me just say how much I DO NOT LOVE averaging about 4.00/hour cleaning up after speech wreckognition. And yes, I ...

All Work Going To Speech Jan 04, 2013I am hearing from some that by 2014 all medical transcription, maybe just the at home work is required by law to go to speech recognition? Has anyone else heard this? I figured it is just up to the individual companies to decide whether they choose for the work to be done straight or by speech recognition. If this is so, all of us at home workers won't have a choice and if we want to do medical work we will be forced into speech. ...

Help! My Corporation Just Went To Speech Recognition! Jul 31, 2010Hello:
I don't know if I am using the right terminology, but my corporation has decided to use some kinda digital voice capture, so the software spits out unedited reports. meaning, as a hospital trained transcriptionist, I've gone from transcription to pure editing. And I am quaking in my boots. I would like to supplement my current job with at home transcription. Is this even still to be found?
All perspectives welcome.
Thank you. ...
