Type of internet access on laptop - westoftheocean
Posted: Apr 07, 2012
I was wondering for any of you MTs who transcribe on your laptop on vacation, can you give me advice on how to get secure internet access and/or companies who provide this. I'm not super tech savy and do not feel comfortable using free WiFi at hotels or other places. I currently use Comcast for internet and do not know if they have anything for laptops.
Verizon Card - Girl4givn

I love my Verizon air card. You can buy one outright (maybe even get one on Ebay) and pay for it monthly so you don't enter a contract. The only problem with that is if you're planning on going to the mountains or somewhere remote. It works like a cell phone, so no cell service - usually no air card service.
Laptop computers - nn

Not really sure what kind of a laptop you have -- I had to purchase a new one in October of last year and my laptop did not come with a slot for an aircard. Most of the cell phones now come with a data plan, which will work with a laptop computer, but you have to be really careful due to the fact that if you go over your data usage, it can be astronomical in cost.
USB is available too - laptop lover

Verizon offers a USB as well as the cards. I have used both. With the USB, you could potentially use it with a desktop or laptop.

VPN And Internet Access (Phoenix Medcom) Aug 11, 2013According to their job posting, you would not be able to access the internet while connected to the VPN. I was wondering if this would affect ALL computers using the same internet connection. For example, my son connects to the internet on his laptop in my home via wireless connection. If I were logged onto the VPN, would he also be blocked from accessing the internet? Would really appreciate any info from anyone working for Phoenix or with a similar VPN setup. Than ...
Info Needed On Using Aircard For Internet Access To Work Nov 21, 2009If anyone uses an aircard to connect to the Internet to work daily, I have some questions...
Most aircards I have seen have an access limit of up to 5 GB per month. I work online with a constant connection - as I finish one report and send it in, another one is downloaded, so I am probably downloading/uploading 25-40 times a day. Does anyone know if 5 GB is sufficient to do this for 8 hours a day? If not, what is the cost of the overage.
If anyone can suggest another alternativ ...
Access To Old Reports Mar 05, 2010I got an email yesterday stating that we would have access to old reports the way that QA does so we can look back to a specific patient's history to find something that might help us fill in blanks. This is supposed to be in effect today.
So I followed the instructions I got in the email, but I just can't figure out what it means. I seems like it is just to print out instructions on how to do this, but I can't seem to find where we actually pull this informatio ...

How To Access Samples Dec 09, 2010DocQmanage: When you log onto DQM, add "dep" (no quotes) behind your ATP number. That will take you into a DQM area where you can search the MedQuist database by dictator, account, and the area from which you want to draw a sample, e.g., operative report or clinic (numerous specialities). The first time you use this area of DQM with the dep marker, you must have called customer support to allow access. Hasn't your CCM told you about this or is it reseved for certain MT levels?

Axis Or Access? May 06, 2012I'm typing an op report for a shoulder mass excision, and I'm not sure which word the doc is saying...

Can I Access Markers In ExpressScribe? May 08, 2012When a doctor uses markers at the beginning of each patient's dication in a recording, how can I access those in Express Scribe when listening to it?

Survey - Do You Have Access To Chart? Apr 28, 2014I'm wondering how many MTs out there have access to patient charts. As of now, I do and it's very helpful in looking up vitals, lab values, and doctors' names that the dictator invariably mumbles. The company I work for will soon remove that access to MTs, and I'm wondering if this is a new HIPAA requirement or if we are moving to a platform that simply does not support it. They are saying that it is because of HIPAA, but I think it's ridiculous to take ...
