Unless you have another way to play your voice files, use
s
Or the voice files may already be there "somewhere" for you to click on and play and you

No experience because I couldnt even take the transcription tests. The voice files would not play.
How about you? I was bummed. I was really interested in the job but I tried everything to get the voice files to play but they wouldnt. Oh well, I guess if it were meant to be, then I would have been able to take the test.
Don't need to record files. Pull them into Express Scribe (free on line) and play them thru there
s
It is Chartscript. You can use WP5.1 or Word. Voice files
are DVI.
The company hiring you should provide the Dictaphone pedal or the adapter to play the ExText

My 2 accounts are on ExText and Chartscript
I usually do well over 2000 lines a day on both accounts. They are also both ER accounts.
Is it proprietary software you guys are using or a "name brand," like ChartScript, etc.? nm
s
Use ExText software, 150 lph to get benes, pay is 7.4-10 cpl. nm
b
1200 lpd, 7.4-8.5 cpl, using ExText software. nm
x
Are you on an ExText account or using the other software? Thx. nm
s
DTS - pay was low. ExText or their own software. Lack of communication
s
Last year, they had accts w/their own software and some with ExText.
s
It's the ExText software. Easy to use. Has it's own expander, if you want, and line counting b
s
1100 lpd for FT, good sound quality, ExText software, LOTs of ESLs..nm
s
Just click on Play then click on Play again to pause dictation
I'm working in Bayscribe right now and that appears to be the only way to do it.
Play to play
Play again to pause
Play again to start play again
Hope that helps.
As your accounts move to India, they move you to another account. NM

What companies use ChartScript and ChartScript.net?
3M = SoftMed = ChartScript = ChartScript.Net
SoftMed was purchased by 3M in 2007. Both products ChartScript and ChartScript.Net are still available. Both have internal text Expanders that work well
You may have to move on to move ahead (sm)
One way to look at what you are doing right now is more training only you are being paid for it; once you have a year or two under your belt as experience, you may be able to command a higher wage someplace else. It's funny, a place will pay more for someone with 2 years' experience than they will pay someone who has worked for them for 2 years! Go figure.
9cpl and 11 cpl for weekends. Use ExText. My ExText version wasn't compatible with theirs
,
They play a lot of games. Pay was on
time, but they do have their favorites who get the good work. Used to run out of work all the time and have to wait for more overflow to come in, so bailed out.
Play favorites.....
pay is good, but they still play favorites and some typists make off like bandits on cream of the crop dictators while the rest of you get the scum.
It all boils down to who will play the game
There have been a lot of good MTs at OSI. Most of those who do excellent work and have years of experience have left OSi because of tactics such as this. She may have a good work ethic and sunny disposition and do good work but is not in a better position to supervise other MTs who are better all around. The point is that people new to either the MT industry or to OSI are most often the ones promoted because they are most assuredly YES people since they don't have enough experience to know any better that OSI consistently does things such as break the wage and hour law among other things.
make sure your player is set to play

Can't play the game unless you have the equipment.
Express Scribe does play that!(sm)
Not sure about Gear Player, but in open Express Scribe and go to settings, and then settings, and go to the tab files, and you should be able to check the box there. You can also go to the WMA file right click and select open with and then select your Express Scribe. Good luck on the test!
Two companies that do not play games
are MDI-MD and Landmark. Good honest people at both companies.
It's one of the tricks that companies play on us
so that they can control our productivity, penalize and pay less, despite getting their work done. The same thing happened to me a year ago, we were asked to follow dossier given by the client, but then a few QAs followed AAMT BOS, etc. Nevertheless, we were penalized left and right and eventually when we stood up and reported their actions, then it stopped completely.
The beauty of this job has been that I can play with Junior (sm)
and still make decent money. It all depends on the company you work for. And 20 years from now, I'll be doing something else.
Help! How do I play this test file?
I'm taking a test for a job. I was sent a file that opens in Creative MediaSource. How am I supposed to transcribe this when it's going so fast? I need to use my foot pedal but there is no option. Please someone help me! I want this job!
our fund of knowledge comes into play
with each report we type. If that doesn't justify a decent compensation, I don't know what will.
Should we just hop to the problem parts of the report since we are only getting paid for that part of the report, eschewing the rest, not making sure it makes sense? It's outrageous, and we should all refuse to do it unless we get paid the same as straight typing. Why should technological advances cause us to lose pay? No one else is taking a cut except us, yet we are the glue that holds this profession together. I know it's all been said before, but it's wrong, and if the MTSOs read this board, they will at least know where we stand on it.
We earned our knowledge through blood, sweat and tears over the years, and we should be compensated for it. Why shouldn't we?!
Ask about what role American MTs will play versus their
I'll play - EZ lunch decisions
I don't have to make the decision the night before or in the morning whether to pack a lunch or buy. Can decide to make rice in the cooker, microwave a meal or just eat a sandwich, or even not eat till I'm famished, all up to me and not a clock.
I know, that wasn't the point. It was simply the play on words....
......simply the play on words in the Google blurb that fit the situation, not the whole related article.
Can you download Express Scribe and play the file thru there? nm
s
ho ho ho but the hosp can play Russian Roulette w/going to court with
Those medical records became cheaper for hospitals how? When they go to court with those expensive incorrect records and LOSE, wonder if they think it was cheaper?
I had that happen and had to play them in Windows media player-nm

You'd play lousy poker - obvious bluffer.
Don't have to have the last word to have the last laugh, and I'm having a good one.
Such an easy mark. . . such a short fuse. WOO! I am laughing out loud.
Fatcat, didn't we play chain socks once?
I hope you're the same Fatcat from the other board.
DocQ, hmmm, how to play audio from keyboard??
Can you share. Didn't know, worked on platform twice and nobody ever said this.??? Can you share?
Very similar thing happened to me. They play head games.
Your friend is better off moving on - but I am so sorry this happened to her - they really are a horrible company.
Odd way of doing business. Most places dont have time to play those games. They just get rid
of people and move on.
If offshore owned, they want to play by their rules, treating MTs like slave labor, much like
:+
Anyone else have problems taking USA Type test? Cant get my comp to play the sound file.
Any suggestions? I really want to take the test but their sound file keeps loading onto my music program, and when I try to load it on Windows Medial Player it tells me I need codecs, so how would I find that to load?
After all these years, if I use Media Player, I just have my test outline ready and play the voice

how are you supposed to work and watch your mail all the time to play a stupid contest?
Transcend cares only about the big pay for its managers and corporate people, nothing for its MTs. Pay used to be decent, is less than mediocre for that horrible editing platform we are forced to use. ROMs have nothing to do but yell at the MTs and invent first grade games to play. I would rather have had the $1.48 postage and $1.00 it cost for the mouse pad and strip calendar.
Remember the old days when Edix used to give the Drake and Drake drug book for MT week? That was when Edix was a good company, too.
ChartScript
Any opinions on ChartScript platform -- how is it to work on? Am considering job offer. Thanks.
RE: ChartScript
Work with it every day at the hospital that employs me. Great program. Word based, choose admission date/work type from drop-down menu, click on correct information, begin transcribing. Piece of cake.
ChartScript?
Can anyone tell me anything about chartscript? I am wondering if the program is user friendly, etc. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
p.s. Have a good holiday weekend!
CHARTSCRIPT
I was wondering if anyone knows what companies use Chartscript for their platform....I have used it before while working inhouse and liked just wondering.
Thanks!!
