DocUscribe...

platform Medquist uses that we all know and love.


DocuScribe
Anyone know how this platform is?
Docuscribe....sm
That account is full of horrible ESLs.  I like Docuscribe, but the ESLs, I would say, make up about 60% of the account.  It is awful, I won't deal with this much longer.  Changes to account day in and day out sometimes 3 times a day...Can't get production going, always something changing....but what can one expect considering where the hospital is located. I am so disappointed.
Docuscribe
I work there and love it. My account just went to Docuscribe and I love it. My production has jumped a good bit. I have plenty of work just about all the time and they leave me alone, pay me on time, etc.
KS regarding Docuscribe
Is KS still looking for people to work on the big account they started a while back?  I know it was utilizing Docuscribe and I was hired for it but because of the great amount of ESL dictators, I decided not to stay with them.  I really didn't mind the Docuscribe though, and can't figure out why they would require experienc on Docuscribe.  I didn't think the platform was difficult to learn at all.
For any Keystrokes MTs on Docuscribe

How do you feel about the Docuscribe account now that you have had a chance to work on it a while?  I read there were lots of ESLs, but how is the work load and have you gotten into a rhythm with it? Thanks.


I went from Docuscribe to Extext. It only took about
a week or so to get up the required line count; but I had to put all my short cuts in over again, so that slowed me down somewhat. All in all its not a bad program.
DSG out of Atlanta uses Docuscribe. nm

They are saving a fortune on Docuscribe (sm)
Since switching most of us have taken a deep dip in wages. A little perk to keep morale up wouldn't hurt.
Anything out there part time DocuScribe except MQ? n/m

They are the ones calling it Medquist Docuscribe, not me. nm

Bayscribe versus DocuScribe. Which is better?
I've used both but wondering which people generally prefer.  Me?  I'd have to say DocuScribe is more user-friendly to me.  Ideas?
Does Keystrokes use Docuscribe? How are they to work for?


I am tired of geting burned by some of the companies that advertise here.  I want a job that has a lot of work, does not outsource and have good accounts. 


My resume is looking worse and worse because I appear to be job hopping.  I want to find a good company where I settle in, work hard and retire in 7 or 8 years. 


I worked for MQ for 11 years and loved DocQscribe.  I just saw an ad from Keystrokes that they use it and want to know if they are as good as they seem to work for. 


This is so confusing.  Most of the companies either run out of work, send work to India or conveniently forget to pay for work done.  Help!  I need a good company!


I just started on the new account with DocuScribe. It is the same as MQ. sm
I worked for MQ for a long time. When they got this new account, they asked if I was interested in changing accounts because I had the experience with the platform. It is the same one exactly. The difference is that KS has a lot of work and we are not pooled. They have taken on a lot of MQ accounts in the past few months. I think that they have a great reputation with their accounts and in general and that the fact that they do not send work offshore is very important to hospitals. It is to me :)
Keystrokes Docuscribe Account
Did anyone out there get hired a few weeks ago by KS for a new account that is on the Docuscribe platform (the same one that MQ uses)?  If so, how do you like that platform and how is the account?  I am very curious about this because it stated in the ad that they will be putting a lot of new accounts on that platform in the coming year.  Please share your experience thus far.  Thanks a bunch.
Keystrokes New Docuscribe Account
I asked this question last week and would like to check regarding if transcriptionists who were hired for this account feel any better about it yet?  Last week there were a lot of negative posts stating too many ESL dictators that were very difficult and they were not able to produce a good line count.  Has it improved any for you?  Also, how do you like the Docuscribe platform?
No. We use DocuScribe and have no intentions of selling to MQ. sm
They have a separate department for technology, used to be Lanier, and they keep it separate. It is the same as using WebChartMD or EmDat. We pay what we use.
I know of Meditech, DocuScribe, TA+ and ExText for HIM and sm
Radnet, Meditech, HBO Star and Misis for radiology.

All of those are compatible with Shorthand.
Does/Did MedQ use Docuscribe program?
I quit the big Q several years ago and can't remember what program I used.  (Old age memory problems, LOL).  Does anyone know if they do or did use Docuscribe?  TIA.
Does Smart Type work with Docuscribe? sm
entertaining an offer and need to know about this.  Thank you.
Love, love, love TransTech! Not overhiring, just growing like crazy!

I work on Docuscribe (not MQ) and have also worked on Chartscript in the past. My line counts went
down significantly when I went to the DQS platform.  Don't know if it is being manipulated or not, just simply stating the facts as I have seen them.
I too love path & can't find it at home & would love to cross-train into rad in the meantime I do
 
Love this company, love my boss, very informative QA.nm.

Does anyone think 41 is too old to go to nursing school. I love MT but I just would love to be a
nurse.  I have such a interist in helping others and the medical world.
Love, love, love DeVenture
Super nice, flexible and just all around nice to work for.
Love, love, love Axolotl
I totally love Axolotl.  Just as A-team said, fantastic benefits.  Yes, strict schedule, but never ever had a problem getting off when I needed to.  I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. 
I would love to know too, I love EXText

Love Bayscribe and love the pay
At 11 cpl I love working for MDI Maryland. Bayscribe is a breeze. The lines build up so quickly. Everything is right there on the page. Sometimes, you have to fill in patient data, but who cares.... you do get paid for it. No holiday or vacation pay as it is an IC position. It beats 8 and 9 cpl any day. IMO
Love, love Archivus
Mind my asking what your line rate is? Do you have to work a schedule? Is their platform good? Anything else?
love/hate MT, mostly love it :)
i've long been dismayed with the direction in which this profession has gone, and i agree with the person who posted that women have accepted substandard wages and/or unfair IC or employment situations. It's very sad to see how, when outsourcing became the norm, women did not adequately negotiate to, you know, pay their bills!!! It seems this has resulted in lots of undercutting and lower line rates for everyone. I see some companies slowly improving and not requiring crazy line counts and hours in exchange for paying into health insurance. i entered this profession as a single female. i married an engineer and was living mighty comfy and cushy and happily doing 4 hours at 11 cpl in the late 90s. didn't have to worry about not having bennies at all. now as a single mom with a young child, i truly struggle. but i do love my work and hold out for my specialty to keep the line count up. still, i see the glaring problems and it's just a shame. if there were an MT union, i'd join in a heartbeat. no time/energy to start one and be some kind of norma rae, though!

Ah, yes, a love/hate thing indeed!

Best to all of you wonderful mts, male and female :)
Love it there

Okay, I have read all the posts and have been keeping up with all of this.  I wasn't going to say anything, but some of the naysayers are getting a little nasty.  I think that Transcend is a very good company.  All of their pay rates and incentives, bonuses and benefits are public knowledge on the forum.  It would make it very hard for preferrential treatment to go.  However, I suppose it could happen.  What I don't get is if it is happening to someone, why wouldn't they do something about it instead of putting up with it and complaining to the world about it while they do it? 


Also, there are a ton of posts on here about Transcend from this thread that are not nice about the company and I haven't seen MT Stars pull one single post.  I guess they aren't as biased as some would claim!


LOVE THEM!
I've been with them for almost 6 months, and they are the best! They truly treat their MTs with respect. I would highly recommend them!
love JLG
I have been an MT a long time and JLG so far has been the best company to work for. Work flow is constant, management is great, and so far, I have not run out of work. If I have my way, I will never go outside the house to work again. I cannot imaging having to drive into town everyday with the price of gas right now!!!!
LOVE MY JOB
I love my job. Best job I have had. People nice to work for, flexible schedule, no nit-picky QA stuff, like "comma in the wrong place". And great pay. RAH RAH RAH...I didn't even have to take any test. Sent them my resume, the called and hired me.
I love it!
"little control freaks with no experience other than raising a few kids"  ROFL!  Yeah, you have that description down pat. Honestly, with some of the ranting emails we get from team leaders or account supervisors, I'd hate to hear them dealing with their children when they think nobody else is around.  OK, so one person on the team did something wrong, so let's scream at everyone!
I love OSi..but I wonder about this, too
nm
MDI-FL...what is it that you love?
I just got hired by this company and am looking forward to getting started.  It sounds like a great company to call home and that's just what I'm hoping to do.  I really need a fresh start after a bad experience with a few nationals.  They seem to have a lot to offer.  I would love some input from current employees on what to expect.  Is the work volume pretty stable?  Platform user-friendly? Easy to make line counts?  Are most of the dictators pretty good?  Do you they pay every 2 weeks or only on certain dates of the month?  Is pay always on time?  Have the changes over the years been for the better?  Would you say this company is here to stay?  Sorry for all the questions; I'm just hoping this is the last MT I'll work for.  Any info you can provide on the boards or off the boards would be much appreciated!   
You will love it!

I love....
You are a sick individual. I hardly ever come on these boards anymore because the level of discourse has sunk so low. There is someone else on this board who uses a name similar to mine and we have been mistaken for each other in the past. But, even if you mean to direct your comments to me, it is of no consequence to me because you are obviously ignorant. I have every right to my opinion and to express it. If low IQ people like you misinterpret what I have written, that's the price one pays for expressing oneself.
All I know is that I love the changes!
They are great! I can't wait! Don't care about much else. All of my accounts are on DocQscribe.
Would love to know if

feedback please.


Love OSI

Love it here at TH. And no way would they ever do that.
I've had emergencies, and as long as I communicate -- everything is FINE. The staff is nice. The work is decent (ESLs though and some mushy americans but who DOESN'T have those)... You can't beat their benefits and I've never EVER had a late paycheck. You can do worse, trust me.
Same here, love OPs.
xx
I second that! Love it there! nm

No but would love to know how (NM)

Love UST!!!!
I too also love UST.  They are very good to work for.  Their platform is their own but it is out of Word and extremely easy and you spend most of your time typing and not entering demos, etc.  I highly recommend them!!!!!
Would Love to Help Out
Hi.  I'm interested in helping out with your account.  I work outside the home during the week and do MT on the side, so that would work great.  Please post a reply/followup if interested.  Thank you.
i love it

I love it!

I have worked for a few different MTSOs.  Spheris, by far, is the most professional.  They will send you all equipment...down to the mouse pad. Tech support is always available and always helpful.  Pay is always on time.  Training lasts a week and is very very thorough.  After training, you are on guaranted pay for several weeks while you familiarize yourself with your account.  You are assigned two accounts up front.  If you have more than 2 hours of downtime, you can submit a request for compensation.


There are other MTSOs who pay more, but I earn a more than adequate salary and am very very happy with them.  I have a great supervisor.  I hope to retire from Spheris.
