Does Dictaphone ExText come with a built-in medical spellcheck? SM
More specifically, does TransTech's platform have a medical spellcheck? TIA
Yes, it comes with Stedman's built in. You'll love the platform, it's
the easiest I have worked with.
I love it. Expander is built into it, as are site notes, sample reports,splchk. nm

ExText. And I am able to use my Shorthand with it. nm

I currently work with ExText and use Shorthand....
It works GREAT! I have over 15,000 shortcuts saved in it and am CONSTANTLY adding more. I work on an acute care account. HTH!
ShortHand is a separate program you buy. ESP is what comes within ExText. nm

Shorthand or ExText expander system? Which is

I've always used my own ShortHand when using ExText. Always compatible, and

I love shorthand
Its compatible with everything because it runs independently. So you can be doing email or Word, or WP or be working on a specific platform and it will work for you.
I love Shorthand and could not type without it anymore! I think it is very similar to PRD. sm
Remember the good ole days of PRD+ and WP5.1??
.12 gross line
No platforms.
Those were the days :)
I would LOVE to hear opinions on Enterprise platform for Webmedx&for Shorthand.See msg.
Thanks so much! Does anyone know if Instant Text will work with Enterprise also. The recruiter who offered me a job was fuzzy on that. Any webmedx employees who would like to E-mail me opinions, etc., I would deeply appreciate it .
Sounds like you're talking about
TranScam. That's not their real name, just their earned nickname.
It used to be hospitals would train people, but it's very expensive and time-consuming. I think your friend could find that only if she lived in India.
It sounds like we are talking about 2 different places
My gosh, sorry for such a bad experience. I am glad I don’t have the same.
I use ExText and love it
I use it with OSi. I also use Shorthand, and it works just fine.
I really like the searching capabilities... You can search by worktype, doctor, patient, and by MT (so you can pull up your own old reports). The search features are the best thing in my opinion. They've saved me a lot of blanks.

ExText and I love it
nm
I love ExText
I have never worked in Chartscript before, so I can't say anything about it, but I do work in ExText and LOVE it. It is so very easy to use and very easy to make a great line count in. I do all ER reports and discharge summaries, and it is great.
I use EXText with Medware and love it
Very easy to install, I had typed on EXText at a previous service so I was familiar with the platform, but it is quite easy to use.
I'm on an ExText acct with MW. Love it! nm
s
I work in ExText and love it
My main account is mostly templates, and it is an extremely easy ER account with about 8 doctors. I easily do between 400-500 lines per hour on that account. My secondary account is on Chartscript, and I do about 300-350 lines per hour on that account. I love them both.
I would love to know too, I love EXText
nm
I love ExText...calm down..it'll be okay
ExText is extremely easy. You've got your demographics screen...easy...and then you're in your document. You know what's great about ExText? It's so easy to search for past reports by provider, by patient, by MT. It's very straight forward and a very easy system to learn in my opinion. You get past the demo screen, finish the document, ctrl-N, it spellchecks, you're done. Voila!
I loved Bayscribe ... also love ExText ... sm
really haven't found any platform I truly hate. Nowadays, you just have to be adaptable. I used Wordperfect (DOS) back when it was 3-something, and I knew it like the back of my hand. But everything changes ... so now I know Word and various derivations ... Iscriptor, Extext, Webnedx's platform (a bit cumbersome but still doable), the old YOG Cottage program ... you name it. I no longer work there (I wanted to be an employee and have benefits and such), but I think anyone who walks away from MDI-MD because they hear negative things about Bayscribe is doing themselves a huge disservice. I made 11 cpl when I left, had decent accounts, and great liaisons. To stick your heels in the sand and say Bayscribe stinks just seems foolish to me ... but that's just my opinion. Opinions ... and ... uh .. other things .. we all have them (smile).
Of course, I also have to admit, still going back to my WP51/PRD days ..... I LOVED PRD, and have adapted to similar Expanders such as ShortHand and autocorrect in Word and such ...... but I watch people on this board exclaim about how wonderful Instant Text is, and I want to puke (ha). I worked for Healthscribe for about a month (it's not even here anymore, and they were the kingpin of offshoring, I later discovered) ..... I hated that stupid popup box and such with IT. I want to just use my own little abbreviations I can memorize and hit the space bar. But that's just me. And if I found a great company who insisted I use IT .... I'd learn to like it, or at least tolerate it.
Uhoh ... this started out as just a defense of Bayscribe (honestly, the line counts on it are great ... I did a minimum of 300 lph, and if I really focused and had some good dictators, it could be more like 350, and I only have about 1000 abbreviations) ... and somehow I got sidetracked. Sorry ..... sign of an old lady up too late at night with no brain left (ha).
Bottom line ...... I have been an MT for a long time. If I can ever help anyone with anything, I'd be happy to try. Feel free to email me anytime. 
Love ExText platform but not sure about companies as I'm an IC. 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!
I love ExText. Why do you say run? It is fast, easy to use sm
and my line counts are right on the money (verified often).
General statements can be misleading. Just because YOU had a bad experience, why tell people to run from a platform that is used by literally thousands and hospitals????
I love ExText, others don't. It'll eat a report once in a while, but otherwise it's easy to
s
Also love ExText even though the line counts can be low. Easy to use! nm

This sounds great. I would love to do mostly OPs. SM
Was that by your choice?
I think everyone's experience at work is different, and it is easier to be negative than positive.
Yes, Shorthand. They have an address datatbase that is in Shorthand, so that's what they sm
prefer you use. nm
I know. They THINK they have built in their
seniority benefit in their PTO plan. Ahhemmm. Hahahaha
No. They have one built in. But I think sm
if you speak with tech support they might (don't quote me on it) be able to convert it for you. Nothing is windows based and no internet. You build your shortcuts from scratch.
yes, they have their own built in...sm
spellcheckers AND autocorrect functions. Some (including me) prefer Chartscript, others prefer Bayscribe. Since Chartscript uses Word, I was able to still add my updated Stedman's medical spellchecker program. Bayscribe does not use Word.
Does Bayscribe have a built-in
medical dictionary?
Yes, purchase (or have one built)
Yes, I would like to purchase one or if it is more cost effective to have on built I would like to do that. The platform that I use now is VERY expensive. If some knows of a company that can build one for me I would appreciate the info.
Use the ESP expander built in - you put all your own in.
nm
They are being built in Mobile, AL
So at least the jobs will be here.
You should see the new house he just built! nm
The built-in templates for the ones you create
nm
Bayscribe is a breeze, with a built-in expander sm
similar to PRD+. I think also if you have Smarttype, you can convert your abbreviations as well. Another nice feature is that you get your line count with each individual report, as well as your total for the day with the amount of money you made -- kinda nice.
I think the majority of the work is acute care, but I think there might be a few radiology and clinic accounts. I'm really not sure.
Good luck!
They use a built-in expander like Auto Correct
nm
Correction: They owned the other one and built this which one which is much larger. sm
I just read this in one of the magazines and asked my lead if they were moving far. She said it is literally across the parking lot from a small office to a huge building, taking on the whole building. I am thrilled to be part of a growing company instead of the sinking ship I was on!!!
9cpl and 11 cpl for weekends. Use ExText. My ExText version wasn't compatible with theirs
,
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

Irony - MQ is closing offices and Keystrokes just built a new one. sm
I was part time with MQ and full time with KS and now will be KS only. I am radiology, make great money and have a great lead. I would recommend them to all MQ MTs that are thinking of leaving.
The email is KeystrokesNow@aol.com. The fax is (630) 729-3177.
We do not have a referral bonus, I am just trying to help everyone that is feeling displaced.
Is there a medical spell check built in their software? n/m
nm
Can anyone tell me what platforms are similar to DQS that have their own built in line counters etc
that are good platforms with companies. I dont need to know all of them just a few of the most used ones would help. I only have used DQS.
No, they built a new one last year and moved into it in October or November. sm
I think they have a really big office now, from what I heard.
sure sounds swell. Sounds like 2350 ln/day @ 4 cents/ln=$90./day
in order to figure how many line needs to be produced to make $500 per pay period. ie, how many lines an hour needed per 8 hour day --at your rate.
So say $450 a week would be $90 a day.
For example, if making 4 cents a line,need 2,250 lines a day, 281 an HOUR (to listen through and edit) to make this great wage of $90. a day FOR ALL THIS SAME SKILL, TO KEEP UPDATED WITH CHANGING MEDICAL COMMUNITY. nope Better at Jack-in-Box Pass it up.
The main office was in Bolingbrook but they built an office in Yorkville last fall. SM
I think that the owners live in Yorkville, so it was built close to their house. Nice office, just pretty far out.
