In Reply to: Ortho MTs? Can I ask which platform you work on and is it productive?? - Curious Georgie
The line count is straight 65 characters with spaces and you can see your count which is important to me.
Today is supposed to be my day off. I needed to do a bunch of errands and catch up and do closets. So far, it's almost 10:30 and I have been on here all morning! I need to scoot!

Their platform is easy to learn...
Softscript's work interface is three-fold: a proprietary report client which downloads, uploads, and retrieves ADT; an audio player in the background; and MS Word which automatically opens the report for you--all you do in Word is type and save. I don't see why Instant Text wouldn't work; MS Word itself has a similar auto-replace function as well.
very easy to learn - good platform
I have worked on a few different platforms and this one works well. Very explicit account specifics as well so it makes it much easier to do your job.
Platform is fairly easy to learn, pay is
low/average, trainers/supervisor are helpful (at least the ones I've dealt with have been), bennies 35+ weeks.
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.
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.
I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.
It's easy to learn...
Not sure what kind of advice you're looking for... I don't think you should be freaking out. It's the best platform I've ever used and it's very easy to learn. I'm sure this isn't giving you anything helpful, but not sure what you want to know.
I usually do it the hard way too, but I learn the easy
way in the process usually. We have to remember that computers are only machines - LOL.
Bayscribe is very easy to learn.
The training lasted about 1-1/2 hours, but most of that was installing it. The trainer went over a few functions and the rest is in the manual, which is very easy. I went from DocQScribe to Bayscribe without any problem. Bayscribe doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but it works well. Everything is on 1 screen (all the demographics). I have no problem making my counts on it.
I found it very easy to learn and like V8 even more. sm
I felt comfortable within a half an hour. The demographics are even easier on the version 8 (newest upgrade) and most of them are filled in for you with very little need to make changes. Once you learn the shortcuts the editing becomes second nature. My suggestion is to practice them one or two at a time until your fingers do them automatically and then move on to adding to your shortcuts and eventually you'll be using them all as second nature as normal typing. I do about 90% editing and 10% typing and I'm happy with that mixture, sometimes more, sometimes less. I make more than double my lines with editing so the decreased pay per line equals more than I do with straight typing. Of course there are days that are the exception and I get a lot more edits than usual and it brings my counts down but on a majority of days I will do about 550-600 lines editing and typing about 220 lines per hour, on a comfortable working hour.
Love Ex-Text - easy to learn

Don't know, but similar to typical and very easy to learn. NM

easy to learn, but not good for productivity

Medrite is very easy to learn, transcription friendly...nm

Just started it last month. It is nice and easy to learn
as long as you have experience with ExText or ExSpeech....All the things I thought were flukey with ExSpeech have now been corrected in EX Editor. You will enjoy it.
ChartScript easy to learn/use/good line count?
Please post any experiences you have had with this platform. Also,does Diskriter provide good insurance and have plenty of work?
Is it easy to get required line counts?
I work on Scribe...very easy to get lines in my opinion...
money is also decent...
Platform very easy and quick - easy to get used to. :)
.
They have Scribe and Allscripts for Ortho. Both are internet based and easy to use. sm
I should mention that I do not know if those are the only two, but I think they are the majority of the accounts.
Great place - ExText is easy to learn and user friendly. Good pay. Nice, COMPETENT people.

It took me, no lie 10 minutes, to learn the platform. sm
When the trainer called, I already loaded the expander, logged into the system, and was ready to go - no training needed. It took me all of 10 minutes to learn the platform; however, the account specifics is what takes a while. Like every company and account, there are certain specifics for each account.
I am liking it very much; however, I am not ready to quit my other job. I prefer working for two, so I have something to fall back on.
scribe platform problems
Anyone else finding Scribe's tech support to be lacking in timeliness?
Keystrokes using Scribe platform
Can anyone currently working for Keystrokes please tell me if you use the Scribe platform, what is Allscripts, and are you happy and able to make a good line count on a daily basis? Thanks very much.
Scribe is the platform and it is slooow
I worked for transportal to too long ago and if your getting on the account I just left then you will type forever and ever to get 800 lines. They will assign you 80 to 100 minutes of work late at night then you have to get up early to type it in the TAT they want. They will also tell you that those 80 to 100 minutes will typically give you 1200 lines but they do not. The account I was on had good dictators but the Scribe platform was slow, very slow and I have DSL. You had to click the job number, then click the voice file, then search demos, then search templates, and then you can type the report. Oh yeah, not to mention the fact that Scribe does not give a line count. Oh yeah you heard me. You have no idea what your line count is at the end of the day and transportal will not tell you on a daily basis either. I hope they have changed in the last few weeks since I was there but I doubt it. By the way, I am not the only one who has left there in the past few weeks.
Precision Scribe Platform
Is it MT friendly ? Thanks
Question about Keystrokes scribe platform
Is it transcription friendly and productive i.e. ease of getting lines, etc.
Thanks
Scribe platform line count
What are your line counts with the Scribe platform? I'm only getting half of what I did with DocQscribe.
Scribe platform line count
I was told I got paid for all headers, footers and expansions, but so much has to be done manually, like open sound file, click to save, then click to close, then click to send, then click to send with note or without note, etc. With DocQscribe, so much was done automatically including downloading a file behind the one we were doing.
I type in Word and use the Scribe platform...
but I don't use a C-phone...
I work on the Scribe platform but there are many other platforms..
just depends on what account you get hired in for. On this particular account, you can look up old reports. We do have part-time employees but I believe they are slowly going away from part-time into full-time.
Scribe platform, how to see line counts? sm
Does anyone know how to get individual report line counts in Scribe platform? I can see the lump sum, but I want to see individual report counts.
WordPerfect vs. Word - similar? Is WordPerfect easy to learn? OK with both on one PC? Thanks. nm

Easy platform...sm
Basically, I have several accounts that I work on, but for the most part all that you have to enter in is the patient's name, DOB, DOS...the rest is usually filled in for you, click Enter or something like that, one button, and then it sends you to the report...when you are finished with that, you just click one button, check mark for QA or not, and send it through..SIMPLE and GREAT platform...not difficult at all...
The platform is NOT easy to use, sm
They do bother you and I just was not treated the way I expected to be. I am happy you are happy with them but it did not work that way for me!!!!
Very easy platform, but I won't say it can't be tweaked a certain way. Don't think anything
s
Tell us more about why you like it. Benefits? PTO? Easy Platform?
.
Anyone know of a company that uses a very easy platform with templates...
and lots of fill in the blanks? I am trying to find part-time work that doesn't require a whole lot of typing because I have pregnancy-induced carpal tunnel syndrome. I still have several months of pregnancy left and I still need to work, so my only option is to find work that requires a lot less typing! I am just happy that this CTS is usually only temporary! I do wear wrist splints and take frequent breaks during my shift but this provides little relief. If you know of companies that use easy platforms with templates, fill in the blanks, cut and paste, etc - please let me know! Thanks in Advance!
What kind of platform does Diskriter use? Is it easy
nm
Platform is easy to use, and the people are great to work with. sm
I only work there part-time, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Good luck on whatever you decide. 
The platform is super easy and user friendly. I have never had sm
any problems getting my lines...plus!
if easy platform and few ESLs, you'll do okay with same doctors daily.
nm
Pay always on time, platform is easy, they've always been nice to me, do have several accounts to
avoid running out of work. I do MT and QA.
Pay is good, platform very easy. Got line count within days. (sm)
The people you work with/for are extremely helpful. There is an incentive plan which they will explain to you during interview process. No 401 match - that is a bummer. First year PTO only a few days, but picks up the next year.
Apply and have the recruiter go over it all with you. It is well worth the time.
Good luck.
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.
They use Dictaphone EX Text platform. Very user friendly and easy to work on.
It is all strictly internet based. No extra phone lines required. They do reimburse your high speed internet up to I think $40 a month, too.
I love it here; easy platform, plenty of work, great communication
@@@
I agree that it is an easy platform, but compared to other platforms I have used, lines are harder
to get, probably counted or weighted differently.
been with spheris 4.5 years, easy platform, good clinic account
nm
depends; can make more $ on easy platform/7 than hard platofrm/8-9 cents
nm
Easy platform, assigned accounts, always plenty of work. Great OM and boss. nm
