Dragon Medical

I'm new to medical transcription and thinking about buying Dragon software. Does it work on wav files from different doctors? If you have a Mac and MacSpeech could you transfer those files to the Mac and then back to the PC to send back? I don't want all of my work done through Dragon, I just want it more for clarification and accuracy. Thanks! ...

Question for those who work from home on eScription - Dragon Medical 360, what is the real purpose of doing: Alt + . when one, when at the right point, can just do "." on its own? Does that have something to do with how Nuance charges the client for lines? I was just wondering if anyone knows. Appreciate an answer to this. ...

Can you resell Dragon Naturally Speaking software by Nuance? I'm looking to upgrade from Dragon Medical 9/10 to 11, which is now called Dragon Medical Practice Edition, and the upgrade costs $599. Can a person who has bought this sell it if they no longer use it? Does anyone ever see either the program itself or the upgrade for resale? Has anyone seen it for less than $599 lately? Far as I can tell this Medical version isn't even sold at Nuance anymore, ju ...

Hi guys: I used to a hospital MT with just straight typing. I was paid by hour, good job, then outsourced to making cents a line. I had a job for 3 years with company only paying VBC. I had to have a job with benefits so I took it and lasted with them for 3 years until they lost the account. Now I have landed a job with just straight typing, but still VBC. They line count is very very high and I am struggling to make the lines. I even had an expander, ...

could someone please explain to me what this is, since per today's email approximately 2000 of us are moving to it end of this month? Thank you in advance for any and all information! ...

It was recently suggested to me that I get Dragon Medical practice Edition, Version 2 for use on transcription, coding, billing and editing. As someone who works from home, I am hoping to investigate the pros and cons of investing in this program and whether its worth it ($1,399.00!!) Does anyone have any experience using this program for transcription, etc who would like to comment? Is it worth the time investment and the money investment? Is the program fairly easy to set up and use ie: l ...

Just got Dragon 10. Install and setup went smoothly (although tedious) and was using it without a problem for almost a week. Then one day it just stopped working. The program won't even start. Anyone else have this problem and if so, how'd you fix it? I want to avoid reinstalling it since it already has several user profiles set up and was working well. Also, I noticed it's a HUGE resource hog and I really can't run anything else at the same ti ...

Does anyone here do editing with Dragon? The office that I have worked for for 9 years went to EMR last year. They have not had anyone editing their stuff and it looks like crap. The office manager sent me an email asking if I would be interested in doing the editing now that the last doctor is going to start on the EMR system. I do not know what the name of the EMR system is only that the docs use Dragon to dictate into. I have several ques ...

Does anyone know how to add p.o. into the vocabulary editor of Dragon? The problem comes up due to there being no "spoken form" that the system recognizes. Thanks in advance! ...

I work for a hospital doing acute care/clinic work. We have a handful of docs using Dragon, and the plans for the future are to implement "Dynamic Dictation" for all clinic providers. Administration recently notified us that they want us to start doing QA on the docs who use Dragon. Of course, we are thrilled as this means job security. Just wondering if anyone else is doing the same? ...

...at the inaccuracies. Everything that everybody has said on this board is true with regard to blatant and flagrant errors even when the dictation is crystal clear! For me particularly, one of the most annoying things is how there is a word put in there that was not even dictated. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? In addition, when "not" is dictated, but is not put into a report. That can be so very detrimental to patient care if not caught, and it is so very easy to overlook. OMG, I cannot believe these e ...

I was wondering if anyone uses Dragon Naturally Speaking Professional to manage their workload as an IC. I would like to be able to input my voicefiles into Dragon and have it produce a draft for me to edit (like at an MTSO). I need to be able to create the profiles without needing to "teach" it because I want to have a different profile for each doctor I have so it will be more accurate. I am wondering if the cost would be worth the time savings or not. I know it wasn&# ...

It's Dragon in action. Draw your own conclusions. And there's an additional video down the page from the organization formerly known as AAMT. ...

Okay...so I was in Walmart and noticed that they had Dragon Essentials for $40 so I grabbed it, not really thinking about which version it was, just knowing that I usually see Dragon for $100+. And I'm not about to spend $1500 for Dragon Medical right now. Before I open the box and can't return it....can we even really use this version for transcription work? I've tried Googling the topic but can't really get a clear answer on this and I've also come across some d ...

The company I work for is currently looking into a new transcription program and have been asking about Dragon. We currently do only straight typing and do a lot of copying and pasting from previous notes. My concern for VR is that we would spend more time fixing formatting issues than if we just straight typed. I would greatly appreciate any feedback from those who have used Dragon. I welcome all opinions, suggestions, etc. Thanks for your time! ...

I went to see a chiropracter this morning and he asked me what I "do" and I told him that I am a transcriptionist and I work for Nuance - he told me that he has used Dragon to dictate his reports for about 6 years and he thought it was great when he first got it, but he said that in the last year or so, it is starting to put in things that he isn't saying. He said one day it started substituting the word sex for six - he solved that by taking the word "sex" out of it so it can� ...

Anyone have thoughts on using program such as Dragon to "re-dictate" reports to save some transcription time and hopefully save further wear and tear? Not an expensive program start-up but willing to spend some time to set up a more basic program to work. My shoulder is nearly frozen, again. Us old-schoolers are wearing out. Thanks! ...

Anybody using this VR program for editing. If so, what type of foot pedal works with this OR are there function keys that can be used to control rewind/play/forward? Thanks for your help. ...

I have the Standard version 10 and had to deal with a lot of bug issues with it. I love the program, but I didn't like the constant problems with trying to download updates, etc. (I have Vista). I wondered if anyone else out there bought this updated version and was pleased with it. I'm hoping to hear that they have the bugs worked out of this program, as the program itself is great and a valuable assest to an MT who types in Word. Any feedback a ...

Anyone out there doing QA for PDOC/Dragon programs, in Meditech? We are just finding out that ONLY the physician can access and do editing, which is not working out. Does anyone know if there any "fixes" for this so that a transcriptionist/editor can "clean up" the reports? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. ...

Does anyone use Dragon Naturally Speaking with Fluency? ...

The Dragon and sending work to India and the Philippines has taken over the hospitals. Nuance is the Dragon and they now get their 2 cents. That is part of the reason our pay has gone down...eaten up by the year of the Dragon. Guess that would mean health care has gone to the Dragon, the CEOs and insurance companies. ...

What headset with mic would you recommend for Dragon under $100. Thanks in advance. ...

If so, how is your line count and quality? ...

Has anyone used Dragon NS instead of transcribing? Does it take a long time to train it? Is it really faster and worth the money? Thanks! ...

I was thinking of using this as a replacement for typing/transcribing. For example when I hear the dictation, I then repeat it to the Dragon voice recognition software, and it types for me. (You need to read the post before this one for it to all make sense -- sorry!) Thanks, Abby ...

Can anyone tell me if there is some sort of formula for pricing out the finall editing of a DragonSpeak report? I am assuming that it would be much less than if it were priced for typing the entire file. thanks, bill ...

I had a stroke five years ago and started using Dragon to transcribe after having done transcription for 30 years by typing. It works okay with Dictaphone, but I am at a loss as to how to make it work with wave files that come over the internet. As almost everything is done this way now, does anyone know if it is possible to use two sound cards, one for dragon and one for wave files or if there is some way I can make this work so that I can still work? Dragon can be a nightmare ...

Does anyone know if Dragon Naturally Speaking can work with the old verson of the old Medrite transcription platform? Thanks. ...

Are many companies installing Dragon for all their MTs to use, or are most using back-end VR where the MTs simply edit? Inscribe is going 100% Dragon. Is that an industry trend? ...
