RE: Old eyes/new screen
Are any of you having trouble with focusing on the new white screen. I've been in DOS for so long I forgot what a strain the white can be. If you're having trouble, how are you handling it (and not losing time transcribing)?
See the top of screen SEARCH BOX sm
enter you company name there.
You will need to change it in screen preferences...sm
On your desktop right click and pick properties. From that window pick appearance. From there pick advanced and then you will have to click on the window that says window text and you will see in the middle a line that says item: window and to the right of that you will see a box that is white in color. Click on the little arrow thare and it will give you some colors or you can click other and then pick the exact color you want. From there once you find the color you want click okay and the color should stick for all the text windows in all your applications. I wish I could show you screen shots of this, but if you need to email me for more clarification.
SGS, eScription, one screen, avg 200 lph. Easy

They are d/l in the background, but once the next demo screen comes up,
it takes forever for the actual typing screen to come up. Frustrating.
What companies pay for demographic screen?
I am not aware of any, but have not worked for more than a few. Just curious.
If you try adding more than one time the ESP screen
will be behind your other screens. If you minimize them you will see it.
funny, I catch this ad at top of screen
U.S. Based proofers? Kinda curious needing MTs to clean up the reports, geez
9.9 Cents / 65 Char. line

Right upper corner of this screen sm
See where it says SEARCH -- ENTER transform, will bring up posts
Waaaay down at the bottom of your screen sm
is a link to Moderators and at the very, very end is a link to contact us. It will take you to adminstration. Scroll all the way down the page and you should see them. Hope this helps!
Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and
go to page 2. There's a list almost at the top of the page. Hope this helps!
Very little PTO and it is to be used for everything, including
sick days, vacation days, holidays -- really stinks !
so no platform, no patient info screen, etc....
I really like working for companies that have a platform. It seems to be faster for me. I type for a company with no platform and I have to download FTP files. It seems to slow me down.
I don't think so. What you see on paper or on the screen in black and white.
If it were me, I certainly would ask specifically the HR person or MTSO. Pick up the phone, dial their number, and ask. Never take a job, unless you know how and what you are getting paid for.
I do believe it means without spaces, but I could be wrong. Things change so fast in this industry, what it means one day, does not necessarily have the same definition tomorrow.
I do the same. I am constantly looking at the screen while listening and transcribing. sm
I can't even imagine having to go over every single word again. It is easy to proof while you transcribe. If there was something particularly difficult or troubling, I would go over that portion again, but never the entire thing.
They got the dreaded "blue screen of death.

Go to bottom right hand side of screen ....
Above where the time is shown. See the magnifying glass and the percentage? You probably bumped it to 110% (I accidentally do it all the time). Just use the pull-down menu and change it back to 100%.
I'm lol'ing because I did this several times and rebooted before I figured out what I was doing and how to fix it.
Hope this helps!!!
:-)
Hahaha, don't hate me, but I have the beautiful NJA screen right now!!
And I am very happy to see it. Off to drink a hot cup of coffee and bask in the warmth of the morning sunshine.
Ta-ta.
I get 8.5 cpl including spaces, but
They pay 0.05 for weekends and another 0.05 for over 16,000 lines per pay period. If you keep your 11,000 lines per pay period you get almost 4 hours of PTO per pay period, which is about 10 days a year. No holiday pay, but usually offer a bonus if you work one. $40.00 internet reimbursement a month. The insurance costs me just under 100.00 a pay period for myself only, no family, but I think that depends on where you live.
Can't think of anything else, but they are good to work for...kind and honest.
I get 8.5 cpl including spaces, plus
for over 16,000 per pay period, which is relatively easy to get. I've got a great account though. I know some places may pay more, but we get what we are promised, on time, plus PTO and insurance if you need it, not free of course, but pretty resonable. An IC can make more per line, but end up losing becuase of the additional SS taxes and absolutely no benefits. I love TT and thank God every day for my job.
No it is everything including interventional
mammos, CTs, MRIs, PETs, etc. The docs are very good and the system is very easy -IDX. Guess I should just stay where I'm at.
9 cpl including spaces
..
I don't believe you get benefits including PTO unless
you maintain 5500 transcribed lines per week or 11,000 edited lines per week, or an average of the two. At least that is what my paperwork says.
I am sitting here looking at an empty screen also so dont feel alone. What is going on with MQ out
of work like this. I have 4 backups and am still out. I guess they are hot and heavy on this turnaround time being nonexistent so they are over hiring now and we will look at more empty screens.
Make sure that it is the Word version not the old blue screen. nm

It gives you a screen so you can insert your resume and email address.

No, only changes your computer screen color...does not affect what you send...nm
;o)
Hi, Unfamiliar. An already typed report comes up on the screen. You listen SM
just as you always did to the dictation and hop the cursor along the sentences and down the page with the dictation, making corrections as needed, such as correcting formatting, names, spelling, and wrong words, correcting and adding punctuation, filling in blanks, and so on.
It seems to require somewhat different skills from straight transcribing--ability to read and decide what and how to edit fast and accurately are needed, in addition to the ability to listen and type. I have the audio speed cranked up at or close to maximum on dictators I'm familiar with and whiz through those reports. Some make more editing and love it, some make less and hate it.
But all produce a lot more lines editing than transcribing. My company pays exactly half the transcribing rate for editing, feeling the average person produces about twice as many lines per minute of dictation on our platform, but some produce significantly more. So when you see someone fussing about how she's going broke earning only 60% of her transcription cents-per-line rate for editing, it's possible that she's significantly below average in her ability to edit quickly. Or something else is wrong, because at current pay rates a competent Editor should be making a decent or even better living.
Just a little slower than DQS in bringing jobs up, filling out screen. (sm)
Not a lot really, and the plus side of being able to research other documents by a particular physician or patient pretty much makes up for it.
Just thought I had heard something and was hoping there was an even better system coming about.
But if they are saying per character are they including spaces?
I'd ask if a space = a character. ;)
I couldn't find anyone, including TT, who would allow only ops.

Do you happen to know if it would be any different including a spouse?

No one here, including the OP whined about working..sm
a weekend! You assume way too much! Of course there are times we are going to all have to work weekends. The point of this whole conversation (since you obviously missed it) is how crappy it is for MTSOs to offer only one of two schedules...give up every Saturday for the rest of your life or a Sunday. Some people do like to go away for the weekend, to their child's Saturday soccer game, or to church! Rotational weekends are awesome and I do them myself! I won't however give up every single Sat. or Sun. until I leave this company. It's not happening!
Many of the ones in the "management" positions, including
ROMs, team leads, and the rest, have never been in management and do not know how to handle having power. It goes to their heads, so they are on an ego trip, they love to manipulate and care less about who they hurt on their way up. They only care about their bonuses and big pay checks. They take care of their friends and everyone else be damned.
I use Meditech with them, but it is Client Server version. Not the old blue screen! sm
I actually like the program and I really like ShortHand but I converted my abbreviations from another program into there so I did not have to start over.
IMO, it's just easier to be rude hiding behind the guise of a screen name. The hateful ones here
It's likely that the hostile MTs that constantly spew negative remarks are the same ones who are too passive to speak up for themselves in the real world. They are basically cowards that take crap all day then come here and anonymously take their pinned up frustrations out on everyone else.
I have seen this on many message boards, but for whatever reason, MT Stars is the absolute worst for this. Isolation must be a huge factor. Some of these gals just need to get out once in a while. JMO
Some good people used to work for MQ including
s
Transcribing = 9 cpl 65 characters including spaces.
Good company, great people. Give them a try.
I have worked for 4 companies, including MQ now which have lowered pay.
it is the way things are now. This career is going to the dogs.
Ad has been removed & poster can repost including co. name.

I love it! Nothing like the old blue screen Meditech. User friendly and easy to use! sm
I also get paid gross line, which helps, but very easy to use!
To Edit
Well...then you have probably missed out on some of the best job opportunities with small MTSOs. I would beware of the large Nationals...they are the ones who offshore. I don't, won't, and only hire US MTs. I also pay my MTs much more than the average Nationals and we don't run out of work either!! Sorry you missed the opportunity of a lifetime not responding to ads posted with yahoo e-mails. Your loss.
WELL SAID - OSi people are quitting in droves including management
that's what forums are for.
Starbucks offers a lot of bennies, including health,
for part-timers.
Is 8 cpl/65 char including spaces good pay for Radiology?
TIA
About 5 years ago was offered 10 cpl including spaces, 65 characters. sm
Don't know about now. That was doing all acute care, mainly op reports with full benefit package.
I declined and have my own accounts, but it was a good offer.
Good luck.
Hmmm.must have missed that. I saw it on ALL accounts but for QA including the platforms that run out
of work constantly.
Close to 9 cents not including multiple incentives
