In Reply to: Does anyone work on Bayscribe? - Help me please!
Above where the time is shown. See the magnifying glass and the percentage? You probably bumped it to 110% (I accidentally do it all the time). Just use the pull-down menu and change it back to 100%.
I'm lol'ing because I did this several times and rebooted before I figured out what I was doing and how to fix it.
Hope this helps!!!

EMR and Transcritpion can go hand-in-hand
IMO, until the old docs retire, they will use EMR and transcribed reports hand-in-hand. There is no reason to totally go away from dictation, since typed reports can (and probably are already) be added to the EMR system.
Starting in 2011 when the big roll-out starts, until 2015 when Medicare/Medicaid penalties go into effect for any doctors not using EMR, there should be no dramatic change in the number of MT jobs. After 2015, I believe that as Transcriptionists retire, those jobs will simply not be replaced. It may mean medical transcription schools will have fewer people to train starting in 2015 because of the decline in NEW transcription positions, but current Medical Transcriptionists should be able to retire from this field, if they want to. JUST MY OPINION.
Here is an interesting article giving the pros and cons of both EMR and transcription from a doctor's point of view.

RE: Old eyes/new screen
Are any of you having trouble with focusing on the new white screen. I've been in DOS for so long I forgot what a strain the white can be. If you're having trouble, how are you handling it (and not losing time transcribing)?
See the top of screen SEARCH BOX sm
enter you company name there.
You will need to change it in screen preferences...sm
On your desktop right click and pick properties. From that window pick appearance. From there pick advanced and then you will have to click on the window that says window text and you will see in the middle a line that says item: window and to the right of that you will see a box that is white in color. Click on the little arrow thare and it will give you some colors or you can click other and then pick the exact color you want. From there once you find the color you want click okay and the color should stick for all the text windows in all your applications. I wish I could show you screen shots of this, but if you need to email me for more clarification.
SGS, eScription, one screen, avg 200 lph. Easy

They are d/l in the background, but once the next demo screen comes up,
it takes forever for the actual typing screen to come up. Frustrating.
What companies pay for demographic screen?
I am not aware of any, but have not worked for more than a few. Just curious.
If you try adding more than one time the ESP screen
will be behind your other screens. If you minimize them you will see it.
funny, I catch this ad at top of screen
U.S. Based proofers? Kinda curious needing MTs to clean up the reports, geez
9.9 Cents / 65 Char. line

Right upper corner of this screen sm
See where it says SEARCH -- ENTER transform, will bring up posts
so no platform, no patient info screen, etc....
I really like working for companies that have a platform. It seems to be faster for me. I type for a company with no platform and I have to download FTP files. It seems to slow me down.
I don't think so. What you see on paper or on the screen in black and white.
If it were me, I certainly would ask specifically the HR person or MTSO. Pick up the phone, dial their number, and ask. Never take a job, unless you know how and what you are getting paid for.
I do believe it means without spaces, but I could be wrong. Things change so fast in this industry, what it means one day, does not necessarily have the same definition tomorrow.
I do the same. I am constantly looking at the screen while listening and transcribing. sm
I can't even imagine having to go over every single word again. It is easy to proof while you transcribe. If there was something particularly difficult or troubling, I would go over that portion again, but never the entire thing.
They got the dreaded "blue screen of death.
x
Hahaha, don't hate me, but I have the beautiful NJA screen right now!!
And I am very happy to see it. Off to drink a hot cup of coffee and bask in the warmth of the morning sunshine.
Ta-ta.
I am sitting here looking at an empty screen also so dont feel alone. What is going on with MQ out
of work like this. I have 4 backups and am still out. I guess they are hot and heavy on this turnaround time being nonexistent so they are over hiring now and we will look at more empty screens.
Make sure that it is the Word version not the old blue screen. nm

It gives you a screen so you can insert your resume and email address.

No, only changes your computer screen color...does not affect what you send...nm
;o)
Hi, Unfamiliar. An already typed report comes up on the screen. You listen SM
just as you always did to the dictation and hop the cursor along the sentences and down the page with the dictation, making corrections as needed, such as correcting formatting, names, spelling, and wrong words, correcting and adding punctuation, filling in blanks, and so on.
It seems to require somewhat different skills from straight transcribing--ability to read and decide what and how to edit fast and accurately are needed, in addition to the ability to listen and type. I have the audio speed cranked up at or close to maximum on dictators I'm familiar with and whiz through those reports. Some make more editing and love it, some make less and hate it.
But all produce a lot more lines editing than transcribing. My company pays exactly half the transcribing rate for editing, feeling the average person produces about twice as many lines per minute of dictation on our platform, but some produce significantly more. So when you see someone fussing about how she's going broke earning only 60% of her transcription cents-per-line rate for editing, it's possible that she's significantly below average in her ability to edit quickly. Or something else is wrong, because at current pay rates a competent Editor should be making a decent or even better living.
Just a little slower than DQS in bringing jobs up, filling out screen. (sm)
Not a lot really, and the plus side of being able to research other documents by a particular physician or patient pretty much makes up for it.
Just thought I had heard something and was hoping there was an even better system coming about.
completing thought.....including on the Job Edit screen. nm

I use Meditech with them, but it is Client Server version. Not the old blue screen! sm
I actually like the program and I really like ShortHand but I converted my abbreviations from another program into there so I did not have to start over.
IMO, it's just easier to be rude hiding behind the guise of a screen name. The hateful ones here
It's likely that the hostile MTs that constantly spew negative remarks are the same ones who are too passive to speak up for themselves in the real world. They are basically cowards that take crap all day then come here and anonymously take their pinned up frustrations out on everyone else.
I have seen this on many message boards, but for whatever reason, MT Stars is the absolute worst for this. Isolation must be a huge factor. Some of these gals just need to get out once in a while. JMO
I have seen this first hand with my own BIL
who is an M.D. He fired his own MT (IC) because he got a voice recognition program and decided to do it himself to save $. Like he needs to pinch pennies. He let her go after 10 years and sits at home doing it himself. Then tells me I should think of another career path because I am going to lose my job to his new program, hahaha! That was 2 years ago and my national still bothers me every weekend to work.
On the other hand...
We could all be totally thrilled and happy with the "new and improved" Medquist about to be unveiled. I'm staying POSITIVE! 
W2s in hand?
Well, that is good to know, but who is going to monitor them, the W2 police? What is our recourse if we don't get them on time? It is aggravating to be ready to file returns and have to wait.
On the other hand
Most of us don't have much choice where to buy our water, natural gas or electricity. But hospitals can shop around until they get the transcription on the cheap. And some well-thought-of MTSOs are losing accounts that have been totally satisfied with the work, because some other MTSO promises the client pie in the sky, 99.9% accuracy, 1-hour TAT at a real bargain price. Might take the hospital quite a while to discover you should *love the one you're with*.
Some of us have had an experience with deregulation of public utilities in our areas. A small natural gas provider offers cheap rates on gas, using the big company's transmission system. You sign up, then within a month or two the little company *discovers* it can't afford to sell the gas at those rates and has to raise its prices. Sounded like a good deal at the time, but getting un-signed up and back with the company you never should have dropped is a real hassle.
Not unlike what happens when a hospital gets courted by a new MTSO and finds that the price is nice but the quality stinks, because it is either bad VR, or offshore outsourced. Have you ever noticed that a client hospital gets super picky about QA issues that never were a problem before? This is how they justify breaking a contract before it's up, to go with the cheaper company.
On the other hand
They hope that we're all sheepish enough to make nice with them until they get the accounts transitioned over, so even if they may not care if we stay or if we go, they're pompously (but probably accurately) assuming enough will stay to make the transition smooth FOR THE CLIENT.
Glad I'm not one that will be helping out in this regard.
I figured one good turn deserves another and walked on MDI-MD immediately.
I hope this has 'FAIL' stamped all over it.
Enjoy your $16 mil, D...I hope you're sent on a slow boat to India to spend it.
I love it! Nothing like the old blue screen Meditech. User friendly and easy to use! sm
I also get paid gross line, which helps, but very easy to use!
Hold my hand??? sm
How about returning my calls instead of hiding behind the answering machine!! How about answering one of my dozen emails!! Give it up Lee. You're just making the obvious more obvious.
Yep!! I have experienced that first hand.
On more than one occasion, the company I worked for knew that I had worked 22 days in a row without a day off. They were so back logged and desperate that their response to me (CEO's response) was so, I've worked 24.
Right hand does not know what the left is doing!!
nm
You obviously have your hand in AAMT...sm
or HIS or you wouldn't post ignorant stuff like this. If you don't have anything supportive to say, don't say anything at all.
Aren't we all. Why do you think someone should just hand
9
They sold off what they have. They might have more on hand, but I think that sm
once it's gone, it's gone.
So, no they do not provide equipment. They sold what they had for dirt cheap. Some accounts need it, some don't. If they have it, they will sell it to you very cheap, if they don't you have to find your own.
Okay, now calm down, it's okay. I see a hand too sm
when I have the message open, then scroll down to see the list, it is pointing to the one I have open. Do they have rooms with a view there?
The Mysterious Hand
Oh thank goodness someone else sees it. I have never noticed this before, and I have been coming on this forum for months now. Yes, there is a window view, and we only have to wear the straight jackets in the afternoon to give the staff a break 
Gotta hand it to ya
:)
No your hand is up, because apparently
you think it's normal for somebody not to be able to spell the name of the company they work for. Sorry, my hand is down because I agree that's a little weird. Sorry if that offends, people, I just think it's strange.
Raise your hand... SM
...if you work for Acusis and your pay was cut during today's conference call.
Me to, I sit there with 1 hand on the mouse and the other on the
keyboard, reading along. When a correction is necessary, I put the cursor in that spot and make the correction and read on.
I never use shortcuts and I cannot imagine that this would speed me up.
Second hand information s/m
My DIL works for them and has for some years. She seems pretty happy, says as long as you do what you're suppose to do no problems. She said she very rarely runs out of work. I've never worked for them myself.
A bird in the hand..... nm
s
My feeling exactly. I can count on 1 hand
the number of times I haven't helped out when they have gotten backlogged, usually without being asked with never a thank you, but an e-mail or phone call asking me to do extra the next day and then the next. I've always pulled my share and then some. I don't care about a gift or even a card, but if I do my 40 hours/committed line that should be enough. They aren't paying me when there isn't any work.
Ultimately it comes down to they don't care if I'm sick or I have a life or not, they just want the lines done. They didn't used to be that way, or at least they would offer incentives, which they rarely do now. I can't stand threats about losing accounts. If isn't my fault if they lose it. If another MT is not doing her share don't ask me to pick up the slack.
Please don't post what you have no first-hand knowledge of. sm
It just makes it difficult to sort through what is true and what is not.
ooops, my expander got out of hand..lol - nm
