You couldn't be more wrong, honey!
Mine only show my moniker!
Never heard of MDI-MD using Meditech - only Bayscribe that I know of.

The other poster is wrong -- Bayscribe does NOT stink. sm
I was one of those brought in from the stone age, dragging my heels, kicking and screaming, when I had to give up my beloved WP51 a few years ago when they implemented the Bayscribe platform, but in all honesty, it is generally a great platform. I was a PRD+ user before, and their expander emulates that (I think it can emulate others too, but not sure). I averaged 300 lines per hour using Bayscribe and never felt that it hindered me. You just have to get used to learning something new, like any other platform. Their spellchecker could be better, but that is only a minor irritation.
I wouldn't walk away from a great-paying job with great accounts simply because of fear of adjusting to something new. I'm sure you'll be very happy if you go with MDI-MD.
Wrong! This is for one of four new accounts! Two are ExText, one is Meditech and two are Chartscr
Keystrokes is constantly advertising because of new accounts and accounts that want more from us, not to replace people or for bad accounts.
Since the beginning of the year, we have added over 20 new accounts and have over 20 more starting in the next month to two months.
I wouldn't be so quick to cut down Meditech either. Some people (me in particular) really like it. Once you are used to it, it is easy to work in, easy to get lines and easy to use expanders.
Scared off? You should be afraid of companies that are losing accounts, not getting accounts!
There are two types of Meditech. One is Meditech Magic, which has a blue sm
screen and is like WP5.1. It is a bit cumbersome but not bad once you get used to it.
The other is Meditech Client, which is WONDERFUL. It opens into Word and populates the demographics for you.
Neither are bad once you get used to them. I make great money using Magic and a lot of others complain about it.
WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! We turn down work because so many hospitals are sm
calling wanting a company that keeps work in the USA. The trend was stronger a few years ago before it all came to light about poor quality, the woman in Pakistan who threatened to post medical records on the web, 911, etc. There are hospitals who look for US-only and they are the MAJORITY not the minority. Definitely seeing the tide turn on offshore from an MTSO perspective, both MTs and customers!!!!!
try 35 yrs, honey, and they ALL say
commensurate with experience.
eeeehhhhh-not-so-much.
I am not your honey...please be more professional (nm)
xx
oh honey, not in the same position at all.
there are things about my company I don't like either but I can deal with the good and the bad and have enough common sense not to stick around a place that I hated so much I had to come here and vent about it everyday! Just like staying in a bad relationship, too many women make themselves martyrs hoping things will change for the better and don't know when to get out. Your job is to type, do ESLs, learn VR and don't be a dinosaur and not expect to have to change with the times....if you don't like your company, move on, plenty of fish in the sea! Or better yet, find something else to do, no matter how much it pains you!
honey, this could be any given company out there. NM
.
Honey, you are running yourself DOWN...sm
 Why do you even bother to come her to try to explain your ridiculous ad, you must not be busy enough either, to be on this board and if you feel you have to explain your job ad, oh well!!!!!!!! You will only get flamed and torn to pieces with this mess.
Honey, you go ahead and gripe
all know they stink and that they are thieves. I hope you can find a new position soon. Good luck to you, but please, please get away from SS.
Honey, I've been an MT 25 years. I never
that I post on a message board, but if you look at my work, it is top notch. That's why I have contracts with local hospitals. I have my own accounts. Can you say the same? No, I doubt it.
I think the recruiter is WRONG to encourage people to cheat.
You're the one answering, honey. LOL
nm
It's not the kind of press ya want, honey!
Hope you have a happy holiday after this!
Honey, I am glad to have a job with ANY company!
In this economy, I don't date try to pick and choose based on whether a company outsources or not. If I owned an MTSO, I'd probably be outsourcing too because too many American MTs are prima donnas who think that just because they work from home, they should have freedom and not have to work a schedule.
Nobody is taking a job from me. There are PLENTY of MT jobs for every qualified American MT who wants one. Get over yourself.
thanks MEMT, hang in there honey...sm
I won't say it gets better, you just learn to trudge through it. Some days are worse than others. My husband and I were very close, and he was such a hands on Dad. He cooked, cleaned, took the kids out so I could have a break, pick spats with me just to keep it a little crazy, etc., etc. Because of the situation of his death, which was caused by someone who was supposed to be his friend, I do feel robbed and so do our kids, especially because everybody knows what the guy did, we just can't prove it. So I am also telling you too, hang in there, it will all work out the way it is supposed too. Just don't forget to be a mom to your kids, they still have a lot of learning to do. When you feel like you cannot type another letter, think about those kids, they will get you through anything.
Neither honey. Just a grown woman
who does her job and doesn't act like a child who doesn't get her way. Hmm, maybe that's why I can get my lines in during a regular 40 hour week and don't have to whine and complain about every single thing that doesn't suit me. This board has become the poor me, feel sorry for me, I hate my company but I have no guts to go somewhere else or learn something new board.
honey, all incentive plans look good until
they find some reason not to come through with the pay out! Good luck!
Honey, I have been an acute care MT for 25 years.
For one thing, most of acute care is NOT elective. And acute care does not consist of only surgery anyway. Also, lots of people DO have surgery this time of year because for one they have time off, and for another if they get it in before the end of the year they can claim it on their taxes for this year, and also if they have already met their deductible they want to have anything they need to get done done before the first of the year, when they will need to meet their deductible again.
It's not the time of year. It's that there are too many MTs.
On a bed of nails, honey... they don't care. Cold as ice! nm

honey, that's your speed increasing, not the pay scale, and by the
way...we come from the days of 50, 60, and 70K a year. After that it dropped to 30.
Yes, you are fortunate. But you do not know.
You are wrong! Here is the ad. I got it too. There are no words spelled wrong and the caps are pa

Re: Bayscribe
Yes! Yes! Yes. Go for it. You will not regret it.
BayScribe
I've worked with BayScribe for 18 months and LOVE it! Everything is on one screen, no toggling through screens between demographics, transcription, and copies.
MDI-MD -- Bayscribe
May I ask you how long it took you to learn Bayscribe? I haven't read anything bad about MDI-MD; they almost sound too good to be true. Or maybe it's just that there really ARE some good companies out there. It all looks SO overwhelming to me that I'm almost afraid to try it. Any encouraging words you can give would be greatly appreciated. TIA.
Bayscribe
You can move through fields using the tab key. Alt D will bring up the doctor's roster.

Bayscribe - Help! sm
I just locked up my keyboard. It works, except for with Bayscribe. I'm half way through a long report. Anybody with any ideas?
BayScribe
It doesn't matter. I use the BayScribe platform too, has nothing to do with your LD.
Bayscribe
Yes, Landmark uses Bayscribe, that is if they have any work!
Bayscribe is a lot like DQS. Don't particularly like either much! nm
x
Bayscribe
is MUCH easier to use than DQS! No comparison!
Bayscribe
I have heard this as well and am waiting for the recruiter to call me back as I am very interested. I have heard nothing bad at all about MDI-MD which is great!
Bayscribe
I currently work on the Bayscribe platform and I absolutely love it! It seems to be very MT friendly and I also get a great line count. Hope this helps-
Bayscribe
Is this a good platform to work on?
Bayscribe
It's okay--I have worked with a lot worse. Pretty simple and easy to learn. Doesn't slow you down in any way, I don't think.
i like bayscribe too,
your cc list, adt, text area, QA comments, are all on one screen.
but i saw recently where about 3 companies were mentioned that use it, and i cannot find where i wrote them down.
its not perfect, but i think you can go pretty fast on it.
Try MDI-MD. They use Bayscribe
x
BayScribe
It's kind of a bare bones kind of platform, but I really like it. You are not slowed down by opening up a lot of windows for your demographics, transcription page, and copies. You can access your own reports, but as far as I know, no one else's. Hope that helps.
Bayscribe
Do they use only Bayscribe? TIA
Bayscribe
Does anyone know if Bayscribe will run with other transcription programs loaded on same computer???
bayscribe
Bayscribe is a lot faster than DocQscribe. It's very MT friendly. The only thing about it is that that spellchecker is...shall we say....quite anemic. Other than that, it's awesome.
Bayscribe
I have worked on DQS and Bayscribe. There are certain features of DQS I like better (being able to insert a doctor's name into the report with a keystroke command, but overall Bayscribe is a lot easier to use.
IT and Bayscribe
Yes, I've had this happen. You have to be careful to spell the first word of the sentence after the period correctly or it sometimes won't capitalize. I'm still trying to figure out what causes this. I think it has something to do with backspacing too many times. This just started happening recently.
Why do you need them in Bayscribe?
the bayscribe Expander and work and my ShortHand works in whatever program I'm in, including Bayscribe.
BayScribe
If you have an internet account, you do not have to input any patient info. I've worked on ExText before, and I think BayScribe is faster because you don't have to wait for the pages to load. You just transcribe.
Bayscribe ?
I am being told that my Stedman's software is not compatible with Bayscribe. Is there a program on Bayscribe that is comparable to Stedman's? Is it true that the spellchecker does not identify mispelled words with underling or such? Thanks
Bayscribe
Sometimes you have to just reboot your computer. If you keep having problems, I would check with the company not here.
MDI-MD/BayScribe
I've been with MDI for almost 4 years and have also worked on ExText. I like both programs. I think BayScribe is a good platform with all demographics, transcription, and cc's entered on one screen, which is probably my favorite thing about BayScribe. I do wish the spellchecker was better. You have to enter a lot yourself into it. BayScribe doesn't have as many bells and whistles as ExText, but to me it feels fast.
MDI-ID / Bayscribe
I use Bayscribe for a company other than MDI-MD and I use PC ShortHand also. No one had to download it into anything. I just brought it up and started typing and it automatically worked. However, I am not sure if all Bayscribe platforms are the same. I really like it and do not mind working with it.
MDI-MD/Bayscribe
I was hired by MDI-MD this week and am scheduled to have training this week. I am curious what your opinion would be regarding Bayscribe. I have heard the tech there can get your Expander (mine is PC Shorthand) to work with the Bayscribe software. Is this true? Also, can you use any CDs i.e., Stedman's references, at all? Overall, would like to know what your opinion is regarding Bayscribe. Thank you.
