There must be more than one version. sm
The platform I've used at a couple different companies is very easy to use. One place I worked the database very seamless integrated with what was called Meditech word processor. Another company used the exact same thing except it actually integrated with MS Word.
I think Meditech Magic and Meditech Client may be two different things and I'm not entirely sure which one I've been using that I like so well, but I think it may be Client.
At any rate, the line count on it is really screwy...but that could be something that is set by the facility/program administrator.
They use version 6. nm

It's probably version 7.5.3.4.1 - every new version
And no, you won't find anyone to ask. On a weekend? Unheard of.
Yes, it is loaded with their version of DQS. nm

You'll have to ask KS which version of
Meditech it is. Every account is different. I have used Meditech Magic. I used it for years and so I like it and can be productive. There are other platforms that are much faster, but its all in what you get used to. I've heard that the latest version of Meditech is much faster than magic.
They were updated to a new version.

Does the version of Meditech
you will be using have an expander? The Meditech I work in does not, therefore I have to use InstantText or ShortHand for an expander.
I think MQ and DSG use the same version but this company I am with now does not. nm

here's the short version
I've been using it fairly steadily since November 2004. I've got DNS Medical version 9.5 with a really good microphone. Plus, I've put the time and effort into training the program. My typing speed has dropped over the years (maybe 70 wpm now) and I don't have the a particularly good memory as far as abbreviations go, so DNS is ideal for me. --- I lucked out 'cause I was able to upgrade to version 7 for about $99, and then the subsequent upgrades were not much more. The program works just fine for me, so I have no need to upgrade further.
If you want to want more in-depth information, email me and we'll chat. I just don't want to floor the board with things.
For all we know, it's a "dummied-down" version of the test...
Regardless, it seems to me to be a slap in the face to American CMTs.
The last InstantText I used was a very early version, so SM
I can't speak to that any more, but just wanted to stay that ShortHand is excellent and I also love it. But it is a very sophisticated program with a whole bunch of bells and whistles that you can use or not use as you choose.
KS/Meditech - PCshorthand version (sm)
Could someone at KS tell me if Meditech works with the NEW (10?) version of PCShorthand or should we download the last version out? (I have windows XP). Thanks for your help!
What version of Meditech does KS use? I've
read that the old Meditech version is horrible, but that Meditech Magic is much better. I think there is also a Pro version too.
Precyse uses it's own program that's a version of
working in Word. Easiest thing I have ever worked on.
I am talking about the Medical version - sm
the regular is a lot cheaper.
Download the latest version of
Adobe Reader 9.1, it's free.
If the questionnaire you have to fill out, is given by the company, ask them what's wrong.
It's the 3rd-person version of MYOB -nm
an upgrade? mean newer version?
This should not be an end of the year thingee seems to me. I would ask what exactly an upgrade means. No reason not to ask for the facts. Does it mean an upgraded version of MedRite or upgrade to a newer type platform or just what does it mean.
The new version you can access line count.
Maybe you do not have good tech support or no one has shown you.
I like the account. The new version of the Dictaphone software was a little
glitchy at first but that seems to be getting worked out. My line count for the last couple of weeks has been getting much better and I find that I am able to get my lines fairly easily. All in all, I am glad I moved to this account.
I like Meditech. I am on the Magic version. I use an expander and sm
average 250 LPH, which is good for these tired old fingers.
You can download a free trial version of (sm)
Slycount. I have used it for a long time and find that it is very accurate.
Cool! I just dowloaded the trial version, and it's
nm
Another Sennheiser vote. I have the sport version.
xxxx
That a VR version? ''Klaatu barada nikto!!''
Make sure that it is the Word version not the old blue screen. nm
xx
I last used it the second week of January. Maybe your company's version was better than the compa
?
I bought the disk version. Don't know about direct downloads. nm
s
Well the one company uses an older version of DQS and has not upgraded to the last 1 or 2 upgrades.
That is my concern. I am not sure where to look at the version I am on for the company with the lower version to see what it is. I hope this works out okay.
Version 8 stinks. I would not do purchase anything to work for a company.
don't do it, unless they are paying you 12 cpl to edit the VR.
Tell them you can not afford it with the line rate they pay...he he!
Happy New Year!!
The ExText will be interfaced with your own Word version unless the company installed something
s
my guess the account pays an inflated version, we get the deflated end
eh?
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.
Well, Merriam-Webster doesn't recognize your version. Only found it in an urban sm
dictationary -- hardly a professional reference. But it has gotten too much attention already, so maybe if we ignore it, it will slither back into its obscure little corner of the world where no one notices it.
9cpl and 11 cpl for weekends. Use ExText. My ExText version wasn't compatible with theirs
,
I know the account. It is "hybrid" account that is a version of sm
Meditech that is a cross between Meditech Magic and Client, more like Client than Magic. I have been on it since October now do 1500 lines a day; it took me a week to get up to speed but they really helped me. I only know which one because my lead told me that they are adding 10 people to it because KS is getting the whole thing now, only doing 1/2 before this. I love working for Keystrokes :)
I agree, i love those things too :)

I agree...I have been with them for 2 years and love them...
They are the best, for me at least!!!
Have to agree, love Transtech except ....
for tech people now. They are condescending and rude and half the time don't know what the problem is. I miss you-know-who!!!!!!!!
PS, still the best place to work.
Have to agree with you on that! Love ES. Makes lots of $$$$$. nm

Totally agree,I love ExText
I have been working in ExText for months and love it. All of my lines are very accurate and I make an awesome line count every day working in it. I wouldn't want to work on any other platform!
Agree. I would love to make $20 an hour
nm
Haha yen, love your post and agree completely with what you say!
I agree. Hate Transcend but love Robert..nm
nm
Agree, very happy there. Love my flexibility. Like the old Signal! Awesome. nm
x
I agree with Denise...I have also only been at Keystrokes for a shor time but I love it...it already
beats the company I was with before, and I was with them for a year-and-a-half...I can see if someone wanted an opinion about a company and you had a bad experience to share, but not just to get on here and say how horrible a company is...move on and good luck....
LOL I totally agree! I love your cat versus hairball analogy! :-) nm

I agree. I am only part time so far, but I love it. The platform is easy, and sm
the people are great. I feel very fortunate to have stumbled onto them.
It's a nightmare!!!

A QA nightmare - has anyone else
I started with a company recently. I had to invest to upgrade my word to 2003. They have account specifics that are so all over the place that each QA person interprets differently. I have one QA who seems to have it out for me. I'm getting reports back with changes and corrections that I know I couldn't possibly have done. I even wonder if they have me mixed up with someone else. I think I like the company overall but I don't know whether I should just hang up my keyboard and move on or what. Has anyone had a QA nightmare that they survived?
OMG! A nightmare again?
OMG! This is not a new situation at Axolotl? The regular Ax posters below have always given nothing but rave reviews on Axolotl, but now act as if this is an old problem, having no work. Is it a new thing or an old thing? I am hanging on by my nails and losing money daily. Not to belittle the OP losing $200 a paycheck, I have lost far more and am near panic state. If misery loves company, this must be happening to many of us. What is happening? I had never heard 1 word ever about low work here, so this is a shock to me. Is this not as temporary as I had been led to believe? I don’t have much time to play around, as my finances are near flat lined after months of this.
