purchase
Good for you!!! Any time any of my appointments come up, I will check first, and then cancel as well and tell them why I am canceling. GOOD JOB!!
Don't purchase anything.
Not sure if they charge you for leads or not, but don't purchase anything. You can check out places like www.transcriptionresource.com to find companies, and post your resume on the boards. Most of those work at home leads places are dead links to so called jobs. I found my jobs on this board. HTH Good luck!!
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.
also, do you have to purchase your own pedal?

wow, I had to purchase mine :(

I purchase insurance independently so

You say "No one would have told you to purchase that." sm.
Did it ever occur to you that maybe the person at Keystrokes DID tell her that and that they DID make a mistake.
My children are insured by their father and I purchase my
insurance. For vacations, I work an extra day a week for a twice a month for a couple months going into the month of my vacation. As for holidays, I usually work them. I look at it as being blessed enough to have a job at home where I can be with my girls and so if my usual days off happen to fall on the holiday, I usually volunteer to work 1/2 day, usually in the evening of the holiday so I can have the day with my girls and I work after they are in bed. Hope this helps!
You can purchase that insurance online. Just go to their website. You sm
do not need to be in a group.
You want to PURCHASE your own platform? Platforms are very expensive so

An IC might be willing to purchase equipment to dial into their system if they can. nm

$1000 toward the purchase of a new hybrid vehicle
It's a nice way for TT to encourage environmental consciousness. My husband and I are in need of a new car. Haven't made a decision yet, but we're definitely considering taking TT up on this offer.
did you have to purchase equipment for this service to work or do they supply - nm

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!!
Does anyone speak legalese? From the MDI/Transcend purchase contract- sm
I found this. Now it sounds to me like that means they possibly have a list of people they plan to let go? And they can let go the rest at any time? There was prior mention of MDI supplying T with a list of people making over $35,000. Would they be the peope on Schedule 6.11? The entire document is here: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/858452/000119312509183673/dex20.htm
Section 6.11 Employees.

do you have any certain software...sm
to do your own line count on, or is there some way to do it w/o any special software? I'd like to check mine out!
What software were you using? nm

Software
Anyone know what software All Type uses?
Yes, you use their software that
incorporates your version of Word into, so you have all your auto correct, etc.
It's VR software.
I hated it at first but I've gotten used to it and hate typing the old way now.
software
Thanks. Is extext the same as dictaphone extext?. I will be working with a company shortly that uses dictaphone extext and someone had e-mailed me stating you can also use ShortHand if you like with dictaphone extext. Could you please give me some information on where I can find ShortHand since it is something it sounds like I could use. Thank you so much. I would appreciate it!
Software
Chartnet at SPI/Cymed is the best platform I have ever worked on. I worked on ExText for many years before and Chartnet is more efficient. I think SPI bought the rights to it (not 100% on this) so I don't think any other companies have it.
what software
platform do they use?
Everyone will have to use the same software?
I hope it is Editscript. It is the easiest to work on. At least the of ones I have used.
Do not pay for software
They are making the profit. I doubt very much that you are a principal or stockholder in the company. That being the case, why should you bear the financial burden. Again, don't enable this kind of bad behavior. There are plenty of honest and decent companies out there. This does not sound like it is one of them.
They have a software
and you have to use that software so it takes a lot of time. For every report you have to open up that software, search for the MT, search for other stuff and type the corrections in that form instead of on the report itself. That stuff gets sent to the MT. You get credit for only 15 lines for blanks no matter how many blanks there are.
The only time you get credit for the whole report is if you do a full listen and they are on full QA. Major ripoff.
No, just the software.
Email me if you want more info.
Software?
Perhaps they are getting ready to change software, platform, or make some changes with their programs.
What is the best expansion software to use
I may be taking a position with them and need to know which program works.
Their software is downloadable
from the EmDat website. They tell you that you need to pay for it and you should run fast. I have heard that they are not wonderful or even remotely close to wonderful.
Escription software
Looking for companies that use this voice recognition software. I think it's great and would love to find more work using that platform. Thanks for any info!
Question about software...
I start for Medware later this week. I am a rehire and before worked on Merit, but this time am working on the Dictaphone software. Is this the same software that MQ used at one time? For those who are employees now I would love to hear from you, please feel free to email me. I am hoping I made the righ decision to go back, but I think I have. I am just wondering what the difference is in the two platforms and if you get your line counts okay. Thanks.
They have their own proprietary software...
very similar to MS Word. Easy to use. Disregard the person's post about 8.5 cpl for 1400 lpd - should get facts from the recruiter about pay and benefits. If you want to ask any more questions, I would be happy to e-mail you.
They use DOS-based software sm
Medtype and Medrite. Nothing done in Word. All DOS-even email. Use PC anywhere for file transfer over phone line. 6 cents per line to start. QA 98-100 is very difficult to get and maintain. They supply equipment.
Not at all. I have 3 different types of software and
all three use a wave pedal. Two of them use USB and the other a 15-pin, and there is no conflict in the programming of each one.
software is SLOOOOOOOOOW
They are a nice bunch of people and the benefits were good, but I could rarely make their line count requirement because their
trouble with software
I am still having trouble with the ExText software. I know TT is doing their best to get everything smoothed out...but I am concerned because it really slows me down and is very frustrating...I just get all geared up and ready to have at it...but the software gives me nothing but problems. It cuts me off after I complete a report and then I have to sign back on to get dictation. Sometimes the system does not recognize my foot pedal, and I have to crawl under my desk undo the USB connection and reconnect, then it will work. All in all this is very frustrating. Also I find some of the doctors are difficult to understand...I think they are speaking too close or too far away from their microphone, etc. I know my line counts thus far are not good at all. I like the company...they are all very, very nice to work with, especially QA. I have been on the account about 3 weeks now...I sure hope it improves soon.
Thanks for your input.
Best radiology software

I just recently started working for EMTS in January of this year. Yes, I made the jump from MQ. Anyway, it is simply a pleasure to work for this outfit. They treat their transcriptionists with dignity and really appreciate their skills. They are very patient and very informative as well as are always building you up through the probation phase. It was hard going from DQS to Softweb but with diligence and hard work, I am now making much more in income than I was before. I think the reason it was difficult for me was it is using MS-word and there was so much that I did not know about it but have learned so much in such a short amount of time and would never go back. They will have to carry me out kicking and screaming, truly a great bunch of people to work with.
They use Emdat software and pay only 7 cpl. nm

updating software . . . .
I was told they are working on their software so it would not be so draggy, though. Would not have to wait for jobs or something regarding the job wait?
They have been really nice, but software..
is not so easy to use so far. I agree with other poster. There are a lot of times the patient names are not in the software, so you have to guess them. There are some docs who you don't even get the patient information for and you, once again, have to guess it. The dictionary is horrible and the autotext leaves much to be desired. There are a lot of headings that come up automatically and have to be deleted when not dictated, so you don't get paid for those. It is very time consuming as a whole. But, they pay on time...8 cpl.
Thank you! Can you tell me a little more abouterus the software? (sm)
Do you connect directly to the hospital via their software and does it use a VPN? Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.
TIA!!!
It is VR software from Dictaphone. sm
It is pretty accurate for Radiology, after time, but for acute care, it needs lots and lots of editing. I hate it.
Ad from Dec. 2006 said they have their own software. nm

There's software out there now that allows you to punch

They use their own software. You get docs
