Do you work in-house here? I applied last August & was told in-house only and they weren't
s
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.
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!!!
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.
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.
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.
They use SpeedType built in to their system - works just like Shorthand.NM
xxx
Sounds like you are talking about ExText - I love it. I use my shorthand AND the built-in ESP.
nm
I love it. Expander is built into it, as are site notes, sample reports,splchk. nm

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.
Then get an in-house job so there are no
your current position.
In house?
Just curious if that had at-home transcriptionists. Sorry, I dont know about their testing, but I had thought about applying there before also, so will watch this thread.
In-house
Never thought I'd hear myself say this, but I would love to get back into a hospital.
In-house only. sm
They listed the opening on MTjobs.com. Check there for info.
In-House
Yesss...and that is one of the reasons hospitals began outsourcing..
That's in-house only. Tried that already... nm

If you are in house, and they are (sm)
having trouble with the home people now, chances are excellent they will continue to have the problems when you go home until they get someone out to fix it. If all the home MT's are having trouble, then the clinic needs to get someone in to fix it. Maybe you might have more to say about that while you're there. Once you go home, you're stuck like everyone else.
im a in-house MT, BUT
I might sound sneaky and dishonest, but I really think that whether you're an IC or employee, they have no say. Unless it's in the contract. But then again, I really don't think they can find out. I also work for a private office consisting of 4 docs who also dictate for the hospital. That friend whom I mentioned who used to work for a vendor AND our hospitals--she now has her own business and I work under her also as an IC in the clinic setting. Our boss doesn't know this because the 4 docs I type for also dictate for 1 of our hospitals. I fear the conflict interest issue. I make $22 by the actual hour plus incentive for the hospital, but as a single parent, I need more than that. I really don't know if I could get in trouble because during my IC shift, I'm not typing for the hospital.
Good luck, I know where you're coming from as far as really wanting just 1 job but needing to live, pay bills, and eat.
in-house
I left MQ after 20+ years to go in-house. I assumed I'd take a pay cut, but because of all the changes at MQ and constant lowering of pay, I decided I'd trade the money for some security. I was totally surprised that because of my experience, I started at more than $20.00 an hour, plus shift/weekend/holiday differentials and great benefits. I did have to change my schedule slightly (working afternoons/evenings) but again the differential comes into play so made it worthwhile. Only work 1 weekend a month, no holidays (unless I want to) and the pay is hourly, no production, no worries about NJA. The future of making a living with the MTSOs seems to be more and more uncertain so in your shoes, I'd definitely look into going back in-house. Also my employer now sends their MTs home to work after training and I think a lot of other hospitals are looking at doing the same thing. I know it will be an adjustment for you not working at home, but I've never regretted it for a moment.
in-house MT now
Four months ago, I started work for a local hospital and couldn't be happier. I've been a Transcriptionist for 33 years, and this job has been a God-send. No stress, no minimum line counts, paid hourly (excellent pay) exceptional benefits, low cost health care. I had been an at-home transcriptionist for 10 years, and the work had decreased to the point that my last pay check was only $500.00 for a two week period. I was facing foreclosure on my home. On my interview, the director informed me that they had an outside company, but decided to bring transcription back in-house to be more cost effective for the department.
What planet are you on? Put your name on here so the OSI hen-house
among each other? Sorry, but you need a reality check.
They must have cleaned house, then. sm
This was a few years ago. However, anybody can do a search of these (and other) boards and find that this was (and I think continues to be) their reputation.
Work in house
I currently work in house for a hospital in Maine who is going from pay per hour to pay per line
Ops are being kept in-house more and more. Lucky to get the few that come my way. nm
s
There are no in-house MTs at Medware
nm
Transcription House
Does anyone have any info on Transcription House in Arizona?
Since I only go out of the house about once a week, no one
x
Transcription House
Any info. on Transcription House in Arizona?
transcription house
Has anyone ever heard of or worked for an ENT position for a transcription house? I have seen this posted a few times and have applied before but this is the first time I have had a response back. Just wanted to know if anyone knew anything??
Thanks in advance.
Oh, they do that at your house too - I once mailed (sm)
2 gift cards from my home mailbox to 2 different parts of town. Neither arrived. Tells me something about the P.O. Mail delivery on my street is absolutely the worst! Thankful for Direct Deposit. I would let Deb know.
There's an in-house MT job in Wichita, KS, in the
s
I was hospital in-house for 13 yrs
and only did radiology. There were gals who did basic 4 called the MR people.
Pathology, orthopedics, cardiology and the morgue, among others, had their own transcriptionists. NONE of us did everything.
Fair question.
In-house work
I work for two hospitals directly as an employee. Both jobs I got after seeing their ads in the local paper, but would suggest to actually contact the hospitals in your area and inquire rather than wait for an ad.
She could try to find something in-house. SM
She could also post a resume on a message board and hope someone may offer her some work.
Thinking of in-house
You're right. I was thinking of hospitals or other in-house where I know some still make $8.75/hr in South but I have a sister who makes $19.50/hr in Calif., plus incentive.
I would like to get the heck OUT OF THE HOUSE.
nm
when they gave away my in-house, I
finally got a holiday off. I have worked them for so long, everybody quit even inviting me anywhere. This is the first time I have had Thanksgiving, Christmas, New years, mother's day, off in 21 years. Mostly just got one or two a year.
Sounds like my old in-house job, where all
Try in-house at a hospital.
