In Reply to: Is Chart Matrix an MT-friendly platform? How about - the spell-check and glossary? nm
It's all pretty self-explanatory. Spell check is fine, not sure what exactly you are asking about that....

The platform is super easy and user friendly. I have never had sm
any problems getting my lines...plus!
No complaints at all. Platform is super MT friendly. Great QA department.
Very happy at Medware.
I would ask your super
S/he should be upfront with you about it. Did you receive any paperwork that specifically stated the terms of your employment and what you would be paid for? Just tell him/her that you are trying to improve your line count, but you need to know what it's being based on. I would also bring up what the recruiter told you, if it hasn't been too long, and see what she says. The recruiter may inadvertantly be misinforming others, too.
PS - I did not post the comment below about assume. I'm not one to harp on that subject since I take people for face value way too often myself.
and to the Super Bowl too!
So funny - I make that typo all the time too!
GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are coming in super-low SM
as far as salary....you should be getting MINIMUM $10,000 more a year and more like $15,000.
Must be Super-Glue
Whatever glue you are referring to must be tremendously potent because your post makes no sense.
For DQS update super says to log on to SM
Service Center tomorrow for the update. Not sure what she means. Do we just log on to DQS as usual to receive download?
So, you won't ask your super for a week but
My goodness.
Find a new super...
Find a position where there is flexibility for your line count.
MTA is a super company!
This is a well-established and well-run company. I have worked with them for 2 years and Lynn and Troy are fantastic people. Go for it!
WAHOO!!!! Here we go...to the super bowel! nm

Super platform to work in.
Emdat is by far one of the most user friendly and productive platforms I have used. MTs working with me have commented on the ease of learning and a great manual coupled with a wonderful tutorial to get you started. Additionally, it has many features that include automatic log which shows you where you are at any point in the day .. email me if you have any specific questions.
Winscribe is super easy. There's
nothing to it. You see the jobs that are available and click to open, type. Have no fear. :)
Super Global Solutions
They install their program, which is word based on your computer, and also use email. It is very user friendly.
Super Duper Easy
May I be nosy and ask you how much they pay for this easy account?
Super Global Solutions
I saw mention of a company called Super Global Solutions on a December 2006 post. I have not found any information on it. Does anyone have any information? Thanks!!
Super Global Systems
Maybe it's Superior Global Systems. I work for them and it's a great company!!
Nothing. They're SUPER busy right now - SM
I believe the woman who hires may be out of town or bringing on a new clinic right now. I'm sure she'll be back with you soon. If you haven't heard back by next week, I'd suggest sending a reminder email. While things seem a little hectic right now in terms of hearing back, I know there's a huge ton of work always available.
Great post. Super. Thanks so much!
I couldn't have said it better myself, though I've been trying for days and obviously making more people mad than agreeable. I am just so passionate about this, and just am to the flipping out point at the complacency and reverse logic I see. I so want all newcomers to the field to have a long happy fulfilling and fruitful career to look forward to, not the scenario that it has turned into of late.
Shapin is a SUPER company to work for
If anyone would like to email me for more infomation, please feel free to do so! Shapin is the very best company I have ever worked for!
They were using ExText when I was there. I was one of the unlucky ones that was on super tough ESL
s
Just because people are super nice, doesn't SM
mean the company is so great. Everyone at Spheris is real nice too, but don't think you would like working there.
if you want to work for super below industry standard - go for it.
It's great money if you haven't ever had an MT job (EVER!)
Platform super easy to learn
I had heard horror stories about SoftScript before I accepted the job (realized you can't believe everything and took a chance). I gave them a shot and have been thrilled. The platform is super easy compared to some of the other Nationals I have worked for. Pay is a about 8 cpl, but that seems standard for Nationals. Tons of work.
I would recommend SoftScript to anyone and I have worked for the worst, MQ, Transcend, Medsribe, etc.
Same here...super-nice group of people (nm)
.
Great place. People are super to work sm
with and answer your questions, etc. Pay well and always on time. If I ever work at home again, I will go back there first.
TT has plenty of work. The platform is super easy to learn and
I'm not having any trouble at all making good line counts doing ESL discharge summaries. Super nice people as well.
It is a SUPER FINGER reference .. DANE COOK PEOPLE... good grief.
Amazing you wasted those brain cells analyzing what didn't need analyzed. TIME WELL SPENT! geesh.
MT-Friendly?
Can anyone please provide any info on the Emdat/Inscribe platform as far as it being MT-friendly and in terms of productivity?
TIA!
Some friendly advice
If you can't research the answers to your questions and find them independently without help, you're not going to like Amphion.
Medium, friendly co.
 They have around 100 MTs. Jenn (the owner) is above wonderful. She is the best boss I have had. They leave you alone too, but are always available to answer any questions. Platform isn't too hard to learn either, at first it seems like a lot of info to remember, but all jobs seem like that at first. Tons and tons of samples.
MT-friendly platforms
You have read my mind. I love good old Word and sound files on Express Scribe. Still looking for more clinic work. Had a great gig and lost it due to another company typing for cheaper. My former MTSO raised her rates and lost a lot of her accounts. I am with a national now and I am not liking it very much.
MediTech not MT friendly
Yes Meditech Magic and Client Server are 2 different types of programs. We have client server. MediTech is not a good program for transcriptionist. Our corporate has several sites. When staff are transcribing going from one site to the next can be cumbersome. There are several reports for line counts but they all measure a line differently. We had to create our own report that was based on a 65 character line. It is difficult to manage reports without accounts - prereg, etc. They hang out there in pending until an account is available. We are currently looking for a different transcription solution.
friendly warning
I've known 3 people who worked for them now and here's the deal. You will constantly run out of work. There are short periods where they will pay a premium rate for overtime, but it will not make up for what you lose due to no work in general. Also, don't expect your paychecks to be on time. They are mailed from Canada to one of their editors in California and she then remails them, so it never comes on time and recently people didn't get paid at all, the pay was over a week late with no real explanation. They just don't have it together.
It is TERRIBLE and NOT MT Friendly...sm
You will NOt make any lines on that thing.
Yep. Not user friendly at all. It
requires a lot of going from keyboard to mouse and back and forth. My backup account is Mongoose and I liked it much better.
user friendly software
Is there really a user-friendly software? Is there one that you don't have to type in demographics anymore or at least get paid for it if you do? Is there one that is actually fast and doesn't require a lot of changing from screen to screen? What would it be? I am not a computer savvy person, but it seems like all this technology is taking us backwards. Also, I don't suppose you would like to tell us which company you work for.
Yes! There really is user-friendly software out there. /sm
You have to do your research, and ask questions in regards to companies with user-friendly software. Both companies I work for use proprietary software that is Word-based. It is all internet- The IC position software- I never change screens, the jobs download in seconds, press one key and demographics fill in (for which I am paid, including headers/footers)- tab down and there's the page you start typing, One click to physician roster- everything right at your fingertips, i.e. account specifics, BOS guidelines, etc. Full-time position - only two screens (demographic) then transcription screen. Everything at fingertips, doctor roster, etc.
I find it very user friendly. nm

Is it relatively user friendly and fast? nm

Precyse a MT-friendly company?
Who works there right now and is happy or not, and why?
How is the flexibility, workflow, hardware/software, benefits, health insurance, PTO, etc. ? TIA
Meditech is NOT transcription friendly.
You are better off working per hour than production. Maybe KS would consider that for the ones who are not happy. Maybe the happy Keystrokers who post here are not using Meditech. I know from 15 years of experience that Meditech is not the program to make production lines on, and whoever can do a lot of lines with all of the pauses and lags should try typing in Word, you'd be rich!!!!! 
Meditech is not a transcription friendly
I worked on it for years. You are better off working per hour transcribing using Meditech. Some like it, some don't. The spell check is not medical. There are a lot of screens to go through before you actually get to type. I guess once you find a rhythm you won't be donating too much time. The F keys across the top of your keyboard are essential for maneuvering through the platform. Also, be sure to save long reports mid report because sometimes Meditech closes out for no reason and then you could lose what you've typed. FYI. 
that is untrue. once you get used to it, it's very user friendly
and you can move around in it just fine, look up old reports on the same patient or any other for that matter --
Friendly warning-if you reply to OP here she SM
will email you through the board. I replied below and got one. I don't know why replying here wasn't enough.
Extext nor Exspeech is as MT friendly as DQS
Editing on DQS is much more profitable and MT friendly than ExSpeech, too. IMHO
Bayscribe is not as user friendly as they say
DocQscribe much better. I agree that Bayscribe takes to much mousing, too many slots. Have to reselect report type after each report even if same worktype. Bayscribe needs some upgrading as far as functionality. Yes, it is doable but other platforms much more productive.
I find it very "MT friendly"....sm
Yes, it is Word-based....you use your own player software (I use Express Scribe) for the voice files, and you use your own Expander program. Lots of search options, by doctor, by patient, etc, to pull up old reports. Minimal demographics to input (at least on the account I am on). Accurate production count built-in that you can check at any time, also a great running log of your work history. I can clip right along in IScriptor - not the best I've ever used (that would be ChartNet) or the worst (Meditech), but basically no major complaints. Good luck!
Right on Sista!! They are dishonest and friendly until
NM
It is not the most MT-friendly platform, that's for sure, but if the company sm
is a good one, I wouldn't pass it up just because of Meditech. I am using it for the first time, and after a month I no longer loathe it like I did, but I cannot honestly say it is my favorite. It IS rather clunky and antiquated. Fortunately, ShortHand works as an expander, so that helps, and one of the pluses of the Meditech system is the ability to access lab, medications, other reports, etc.
Good luck to you. I am sure your trainer will have some helpful tips, or at least I hope so.
Friendly note to HR people:
I have 20 years of experience. It used to be relatively pain-free to switch jobs in this industry before everyone had Human Resources personnel... The job I just accepted did not call me for endless ridiculous interviews, all of the questions which were answered on my resume and application already. The test didn't take 6 hours. I didn't have to fill out the exact same info over and over again. When I asked a simple question via email, I received a quick simple response via email rather than having an HR person calling on the phone yet again to tie me up for another hour. I was job-shopping and comparing, so I don't have time to sit on the phone with every single one of them when all I need to know is do you hire employee status or IC, for example. You should also know that many of us have been working at home so long and are used to communicating via email & IM that we aren't really phone people anymore anyway. In short, one of the main reasons I went with this company is because the hiring process was pain-free, much like it used to be in the 'old days', so keep that in mind when you're wondering why you can't snag any new hires. Just something to think about....
