VR Trained by keystrokes only?

Hey there wise, venerable coding veterans! I'm looking for an opinion on the coding course linked below before I contact the school with any specific questions. Do you think this will teach enough for the CCS or just the CCA? How about the CPC? Should I look further into this course/school or scratch it off my list? Many thanks http://www.hutchcc.edu/catalog/major/?major=5215 ...

What on earth??? ...

Has anybody been trained to do medical coding and do they like it? I am trying to figure out where to go next since transciption no longer pays the bills and I am sick of sitting down for 12 hours a day. I am ready to work away from home. I just do not want to invest time and money in classes where I cannot get a job or where the pay is worse that what we make now. ...

The below listed paragraph is echo-dictation. This means that I am listening to the dictator and repeating what is said into a microphone. I have not read this paragraph, so what you about to read has not been edited by me (correct errors). --- If you are doing VR and the text you are reviewing doesn't look like this in terms of accuracy, then the problem lies with the facility who is using speech recognition. I just want to (hopefully) put to rest the negative comments about speech r ...

This is copied/pasted from a document I'm to be working on. I have not yet proofed anything. What you are about to read is what appears on the screen. It's a fast dictator. The service is v-e-r-y emphatic about keeping the speech engine constantly updated with corrected documents. *THIS* is what I'm talking about. The patient is a very pleasant 73-year-old gentleman who returns today for an evaluation. He was last seen by. His pain is though a very low back pain ...

Does not surprise me.. the Canned reports featured in EPIC I am sure will take over to completely do away transcriptionists. Clearly healthcare is okay with homogenous reports that really are not particular to the patient, just trying to stay within the slimmest margin of the law. It's like legal liability insurance...the bare minimum required. ...

Hi, I'm a former Acute Care Transcriptionist who has 12 years hospital, 2 years clinical experience including not cherry-picking and found out years later that their most experienced transcriptionist refused to do an account I was put on due to the ESL ratio. They did try to make me feel like I was the one who was stoopid, etc..... aside from that....I retired from this profession to home-school my children full-time, be a wife and mother...hubby is very high maintenance.... Any ...

I'm new to Keystrokes and just found out I barely didn't pass my very first audit to get off 100% QA. Does anybody know how long they give you to get this 98% passing score before they fire you? ...

I have given notice but including today have 2 checks coming. To my surprise, the deposit is not in my account today. Has anyone else not gotten their DD from Keystrokes? ...

I was wondering if anybody knew who I'd contact about trying to add secondary accounts to work on. I've sent a couple of emails out but I'm not sure I sent them to the right people. ...

Read the job opening for Keystrokes and also talked with the recruiter. Can anybody here who works(ed) for and Keystrokes give real, hands-on experience for working for them? I've had many instances where how it really is isn't how the recruiter said it would be and don't want to get burned again. I'd really like to know the good and bad about the company upfront before I decide whether or not to accept the job. Please don't ...

Does anyone know if Keystrokes uses VR? I am working with VR at the currently company I am working for and I don't like it. I'm considering applying with Keystrokes. ...

Seems some companies just do not learn after being sued for unpaid overtime. Here is another one filed on June 2, 2011 - Whitaker v Keystrokes Transcription - here is the link http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/illinois/ilndce/1:2011cv03734/256349/1/ ...

and QA dings me for one. Unbelievable. That's what it averages for 1400 lines a day full-time. Even with 3 cups of coffee and an office chair seat belt, it's no easy feat. Ninety-thousand keystrokes PER DAY. That's not including the ADT, the Internet look-ups, etc. Throw me a bone here, QA. How many keystrokes to you do, PERFECTLY?? ...

Just wondering about OSI and Keystrokes. I recently have applied to both of these and looks like I could be hired by either one (have already done the testing). Could anyway tell me how they are to work for. Do they do voice recognition? And anyone know their pay rates? ...

Has anyone from KS heard yet when they will be mailing out the W-2's? ...

Just wondering if anyone has gotten their W2 yet from Keystrokes? ...

for reimbursement for overdraft fees? would be curious to know . . . thanking you in advance ...

Noticed they posted a job for the night shift. For those who have worked this shift or are working this shift for Keystrokes, is there enough work. Seems never to be enough work and that would be murder staying away for no work. :-/ ...

Does anyone have any information on this company? ...

Does anyone work for Keystrokes that has any information about the company? Really need some input....Tks ...

Please, no negative talk....somebody be positive and be happy with me. ...

Was told by recruiter the account was about 50/50? Think this would be a typical assumption of their accounts? (Have been told this before and it was way highter...like in the 90/10 range). Thanks in advance. ...

Yes, I know there are negatives regarding just about every MT company, but I am just about to start with Keystrokes and I'm trying to stay positive and be excited about it, so I would love to hear the good stuff about working for the company and what I can look forward to as I get started. Thanks guys!! ...

How is it? The trainer says it is one of the easiest platforms to learn on if you've never done it. Said the threshold is set high at like 85% (not sure what that means) and it proves to be very lucrative for some. Anyone have any experience with it they could share? Not only am I new to Keystrokes, totally new to VR as well. Thanks in advance! ...

Many years ago I worked there for a short time because their voice files were of such poor quality. Is it still the same? ...
