Anyone know where I can find instructions on editing escription type VR. No one really gave me any at my office and I am not sure I am doing it exactly right or how to do some shortcuts or whatever so that I can make some speed. TIA ...
Hi, has anyone ever had problems with Escription when you are editing leaving black marked out lines when you backspace or use the delete button in the text? ...
Hello,
We are preparing to switch to editing and are working on a fair guidelines for the MTs. What are the industry standards of expections for things such as correcting if a dictator says something like "laboratory studies" and the draft comes through as "laboratory data" - do you correct it or leave it? What about things like numbers that begin a sentence? Correct or let it go? Any advice you can give would be appreciated. ...
Is there anyway to retreive a report or part of a report after my computer burped and rebooted itself. The report went back into the Que, but the report I had done so far is not there. Would it be stored somewhere on my computer?
Help - this is happening too much today and I am losing lots of reports. ...
Hello all, have joined new outfit. Anyone willing to share any tips or suggestions for Escription platform? I'm told it is Word based.
I'm curious about text expander use. The information mentioned Autotext, Autocorrect and other tools embedded in Word, but also mentioned certain issues related with text replacement.
Any suggestions or tips will be much appreciated. ...
Is there any way to easily get capitals to change when you add or remove a period? It's so frustrating when, for example, when you take a period out and the next word doesn't automatically capitalize like it does in a lot of other platforms. Word macros don't seem to work. : (

I supervise a group of transcriptionists who are offsite but work as hourly employees. They work on a Nuance editing platform, but also do Radiology. Currently they are required to do 15 min/hr and do 15 xrays/hr on an editing platform (PowerScribe) as well.
The numbers are outdated and I want to up the amount of xrays they edit an hour, but am unsure what the industry standards are. Does anyone know:
1. What the industry standard is for how many x-rays you are required ...
I realize we were told that we cannot use satellite internet with Escription program, but has anyone actuallyl tried doing this? I live where they only have satellite internt and commute to a large city, so I can work for Nuance. So far this has worked out okay, but I really would like to be home more. Am just wondering if this is possible. ...
it will work, and then the next time I try to use the same correction, it will not work. Am I doing something wrong? Is it the platform? Any suggestions? ...
I would like to know if anyone makes a decent living using this platform. Any comments appreciated, i.e., average lines per day, hour, anything to give me better understanding. Thanks. ...
I just received my Infinity USB foot pedal from PCDictate. I am employed with Nuance using the eScription platform and I am unable to get this foot pedal to work. Can anyone who works on the eScription platform (preferably with Nuance) tell me what settings to use so this thing will work? I'm about at my wits end. I'm beginning to think the old pedal I had was fine and I spent money for nothing. I have a new computer and it shows the pedal IS installed and functional, but it ...
I know that most companies are going to VR but since I have only worked in house until now, I have no idea what is considered good or great pay. Can some of you that are happy doing VR and making good or decent wages please share what you consider good or great pay and what is realistic in terms of production? I have heard 3x your regular production, 2x regular production and less production. I am really confused and need to be able to compare apples to apples.
Thank you ...
I do not mean a per line rate, as that will equate to different incomes for different MTs.
What do you consider a reasonable annual income for a combination of MT/editing; $25,000, $30,000, $40,000, or more?
My income was $47,000 in the past, and will probably drop to $37,000 this year. I don't like it, but I do not have a degree, jobs are not plentiful, and I am thinking that in my rural town, I will not do any better, especially considering clothes and gas, etc. I stil ...
Hey there MTs out there. Are any of you with a good MT company (only want IC position) that use eScription VR and are being paid a decent wage as well as hiring. Anything under 4 cpl is not good in my book. Thanks so much for responding and giving me your time. ...
Two questions please: Does anyone working on the new oncology account and if so, how is it? Good dictators, easy platform, etc.?
Secondly, is it just me or does TTS have more paperwork for a new hire than I have ever seen in my life? I've surpassed 75 pages at this point and the emails are still coming!! I've never worked for an MTSO that does this. ...
Rarely do I start discussion on mtstars - however, 2014 was a particularly challenging year for myself - an experienced MT/Editor (15+ years). However, I realize that many other MTs may be in the same position, i.e., having many years devoted to working at the Big MTSOs including âthe M,â and âthe Nâ and (now to be included) âthe Tâ following close behind in total numbers of MT/Editors on staff. (Hint: Sure most of you know the M, the N and the T - and the names have been int ...
