I accidentally added the wrong spelling of a word in the dictionary in Meditech. Anyone know how to delete this from the dictionary? Thanks a ton!
I believe that takes administrative - access..... sm

If I remember correctly, you have to be able to access your spellcheck dictionary which you'll need to be granted that function. It would be in your initial screens. If it's not there, then ask your company.

I ended up getting a hold of another transcriptionist a couple of days later, and she told me how to do it. Thanks anyway :)
I work for a small hospital and we have just recently started typing our H&P's into EMR. The problem with EMR is that it uses Word (not Microsoft Word) and we have no auto correct and no medical spell checker. We were told that we could not get either installed in the EMR. Does anyone know if this is true or not? Also, we were told that we could not cut and paste into the EMR, which is what we had been doing due to no auto correct or spell checker, because it is noncompliance with the H ...
I am wonderinig about how Meditech counts lines; if they pay on 65 character line and say meditech does not have that many characters on a line, but around 49-50, do you come out less or does it equal out in the end ? Thanks everyone. Just love the program ...

My fiance is learning meditech and is very frustrated. When she enters the patient id and hits f9 the program freezes up and she can't do anything.
She is using a dell laptop.
How can we fix this problem?

Anyone hate meditech as much as I do? It is impossible to type more than 50 reports unless you work more than 8 hours a day. They dont care if you work more than 8 hours a day, (cause there is tons of work) but don't put that on your time card. You have to work on your days off cause you don't make enough money unless you do. If you only get paid 1 dollar per report you can go on disability for the rest of your life and pretty much live on 900 a month anyway. meditech has so ...
I just searched the archives for Meditech 2012 and this platform sounds like it sucks. I have just learned the Escription platform but I need a day job and hate this VR crap.
My question is you who are working on Meditech, is it still time consuming and cutting into your pay? ...

Thanks for any help ...
I'm just training on an old version of Meditech, I think it's V 4.5. I don't see any way to block text or copy and paste. My trainer isn't familiar with this version, either. Does anyone know how to do it? Thanks! ...

I am looking for anyone that has some information on what the Meditech shift plus F keys do. For instance, if I am editing in a document and want to change the font to bold while in the document, how do I mark the text I want to change and then bold it? I have just been assigned a new account and it is driving me crazy. I used Meditech many years ago and have forgotten how to do a lot of the functions.
Thanks in advance.

I'm using Meditech 4.0 for the first time and can't figure out how to run transcription lines. The facility typically pays by the hour and is paying by line for the first time, so they aren't familiar with how to do it either. Their IT department is busy and not able to give me much help. Anybody know how to do it? ...
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to create normals in Meditech? I am trying to set up my normals for all the headings for each particular doctor so they will already be bolded. It is time consuming bolding the headings. Trying to figure out ways to be proficient, as my line minimum went up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi all,
Has anyone worked on the Meditech platform? I have a maybe job that uses it, and I'm just wondering if it's cumbersome, slow, etc.
I'm used to DQS/Fluency and I have heard that other platforms are not as user friendly as the DQS/Fluency.
Thank so much.

Are there any MTs on the board that are currently using, have used Meditech? Years ago I was told Meditech is a horror to learn and use, very slow and cumbersome jumping screen to screen before actually typing anything. Does this still hold true? Has it been improved? Any comments would be appreciated. TIA. ...
Has anyone had this problem and found a solution? I work in Meditech with Word 2003. Whenever I create autocorrect entries, they will work for that session, but the next time I log on, they've all disappeared. This is very frustrating. Really hoping to find a solution! Thanks. ...
I rarely post on this board, but I was surprised and dismayed to see the posts below regarding Keystrokes and Meditech accounts and wanted to respond. I have also worked for KS for 4 years. I am very experienced on many accounts they have using various platforms; Meditech, Docuscribe, Winscribe, ChartScript, and others. I type, QA, and do training on these accounts, so I feel like I have a pretty good idea of the situation.
Meditech has different bui ...

Does anyone know how to do this? Right now the text I "paste" onto the clipboard in Word does not paste into MediTech.
Thanks ...
Hi Everyone!
I just got a call that I have been hired as an IC on an account that uses the Meditech platform. Anything anyone can tell me about it. This is my first job being paid for production. They have a 99% QA.
I also am in a hiring process with another company as an employee. I feel a little more comfortable working for them, but it depends on what schedule they offer.
The IC company is 24/7 but the work is not always there. I have to investigate a little further but they ...
