Call me an idiot, but I have a question about C-phones, LOL

I truly, truly wish these idiots who call themselves physicians had to listen to and transcribe their own dictations. I am so frustrated right now I could just about pull my hair out. Being a greeter at Wal-Mart is looking very enticing right now. ...

I made my resume approximately 7 years ago. Since that time, when searching for new employment opportunities, I have added recent experience, PC upgrades, new software, new training, etc, to my resume and sent it out updated with what currently applies. In the past 10 days, I have sent my resume to approximately 50 companies in my newest search for work. In the past 7 years, I have sent my resume to probably 200 potential employers. Today, for the first time, I received a re ...

Hi, I really do concur with "Raining Pennies" that it is very important to read the posting guideines. Otherwise, if you inadvertently breach the guidelines, you will wind up getting banned. I did breech the posting guidelines and I did get banned, but I'm back for one more chance at staying within the "posting guidelines." "Raining Pennies" was correct about how I breached the guidelines. I quoted some language that I should not have quoted. And I apologize to the owner ...

He speaks very clearly but I have never heard this, and for all I know, it could be a fairly common word but again... He's still talking about that Thurston-Holland fragment of the Salter-Harris fracture, and he says "This required taking down the callus meticulously with the Freer elevator and then *s/l ka-PUNJ-ee-ing* it over." Thanks again if anyone knows. ...

I have had it with these idiots who can barely dictate for making smacking noises. That is right up there with burping/eating/peeing/chewing gum/driving/mumbling/groaning/ uhh, uhhh, uhhhh/playing with the dog/helping the kids with their homework while dictating. If dictators were held to the same standards of dictation that we are held to as MTs, only a handful would still be dictating. Let's cut THEIR pay when they are idiots and smack loudly after each word. ...

I work for a hospital in California on my C-phone. Over the last week, ever since Comcast demanded that I add a second line because I was using over 5000 minutes of long distance, I have not been able to dial into the hospital. I can call the hospital number (long distance) but when I get the prompts asking for my ID and password, the system will not take my information from the C-phone. Yet, when I call the 800 number (for emergencies only), my C-phone worked ...

What is the best head phones. I have tried so many, but I know there has to be a better set. I currently use Logitech. ...

I swear she is on a cell phone in a low service area on speaker mode. Aren't they supposed to dial in on a hospital phone? At one time a few years back, I thought it was against HIPAA to use cell phones for dictation. Drives a person nutty. ...

Are Dvi boxes interchangeable with C phones and vice versa? Thanks. ...

Hi everyone, Can anyone tell me how a C-phone works? Does it take a designated phone line or will it stop working if I get a phone call? I've never used one. Any info on how it works would be greatly appreciated. ...

This dictator sounds about 70+ and is still using a device that keeps fading out, some kind of cell phone. Don't they know how bad that is? Don't they see how many words are missing in their returned reports? I really think a lot of doctors are ignorant about technology, especially the older ones. ...

Can you share what kind of headphones you use that are the best for medical transcription. One of the Nuance people suggested ECS Wordsmith at www.tvps.com. I got them, but I don't find much improvement. I have heard about the booster. Any good suggestions. ...

How do you keep your cord from twisting? Mine coils up like an old telephone cord. ...

Do anyone know of a company that repairs C-phones, besides Dictaphone? ...

I think migrating from C-phones to Internet platforms was a mistake. Over the years I have worked on both Lanier and Dictaphone C-phone accounts as well as about eight different Internet platforms. I'll take a C-phone account any day. C-phone accounts normally involve using a professional grade word processor like Word or Wordperfect rather than an amateurish proprietary thing that resembles a word processor but often lacks the features of a professional word processor.Addition ...

I am looking to purchase new head phones. The cheap ones I note break so easily and I cannot hear very well. I like the head phones that go over the whole ear. Can someone tell me what they find is the best head set to use? If you could give me the name of them and even where you got them and some information about them, I would appreciate it!! Thanks for your time. Liz ...

What type of ear phones are MTs using nowadays? I keep breaking my head set (the wires break inside and I have to hold them just right to use them). It never occurred to me that the 15,000 (slight exag) ear buds I have in the house (young kids from every electonic ever known to man) has a set. They seem to work fine. Is there any reason not to use ear buds versus my old style stethoscope ear phones? EBAY actually had an ad for Apple ear buds for $2.99 including free shipping! I cou ...

So I just got a temp job in a fancy upscale surgical hospital. First in-house job in 8 years, and I really need to convert this job into a permanent deal, but my first attempts on the phone last week I sort of bombed. Is anybody able to offer some pointers on phone tact? I know I will make mistakes, it would be great if I could recover from them gracefully. >_<* If someone was willing to mentor me and get me through this next week I would send you a box of cookies or brownies or wha ...

Don't they realize that cell phones and similar devices make their dictation a mangled mess with words being cut off? Or do they just blame us? ...

I am tired and frustrated from applying and sending out resumes only to be ignored. It is like a game with them, I think. MedGarde even has an interview which has absolutely nothing to do with your skills or qualifications. In fact it seems like psychological testing to see if you are mentally competent or something like that. I swear I feel like a mouse that is being tested and run through a maze to see how well you perform, but even mice will get the prize or food event ...

I am considering requesting this pay which (depending on the state) considers us to be on-call and must be paid for part of our shift if no work. I have had it up to here with Nuance and running out of work, adding more and more accounts and STILL no work. Got a second job and STILL being screwed by Nuance in the sense that I cannot rely on my first job (income wise), because when there is enough work they manage to screw my cpl with their lovely FIESA, then as soon as I have no errors the work ...

It takes just as long to listen to the file (most of which is unintelligible) and leave huge areas of blanks, so we make next to nothing for the report. Garbage!!!! I know...nothing will ever be done about this. ...

I have left notes about bad audio and hard to understand dictation and these doctors still persist in dictating on trains, cars, etc. What do you do. ...

How freaking stupid do you think I am??? Obviously you cant spell what you just rambled through either but speak normally and I guarantee you I can...off to search AGAIN!!! ...

An account manager sent out an email suggesting that we monitor our emails on our weekend days off, and then log on to help if requested. Am I the only one who expects to not check emails or work during my one weekend day off? Even though I have a required schedule, should I expect to work 7 days a week in this industry, including on my days off? Am I asking too much to be allowed to not turn on my computer on my day off, or to be allowed to go out without worry about rushing home to check em ...
