All of which are being done to eliminate

In Reply to: My MTSO has not yet gone to BOS3 - sm
our being paid for those clarifying keystrokes, which are now felt to be unnecessary. If I am not mistaken, I read somewhere a while back that "they" (AAMT/AHDI) are in favor of enforcing a standardized VBC system. I see the elimination of those characters as a step in that direction.
I do not follow BOS 3rd and I will not purchase it.
BOS 2nd is the reference the facilities I work on abide by. Until my facilities or MTSO advise me of updated preferences, BOS 2nd is just fine for me.

It doesn't eliminate the need for us. (sm)
I work on a couple of accounts using EMR. Work is as heavy as ever.
EMR can eliminate dictation :(
My entire department was laid off after the hospital/clinic got EMR. However, if those fighting against EMR can show how much of a waste of time and $$$ it is for the doctors to enter all their own information, they might figure out a way to make it work for doctors to dictate.
The place I worked at used to have doctors seeing patients ever 15 min (often double booking every patient) to seeing patients every 20-30 minutes once they implimented EMR. That means at least 1 less patient per hour. Calculate that out, and they are down almost $4000 in revenue in a week (1 pt/hr/8hrday/5dayweek/$100 office visit) per doctor. If a practice has 50 doctors, then they are down almost $200,000 of revenue a week. I can't see them paying much more than $1000 per week for transcription, so how would implementing an EMR system where doctors have to enter everything in themselves save them money?
There is a patch to help eliminate those problems you
are experiencing with IE7.0. Do you want a link to it? Solved my IE7 problem, but then again, I rarely uses IE, but a different tabbed browser.
Nationals charge 20+ cpl to fund R&D in programs that will eliminate MTs.

I have the feeling they may eliminate SE because they are starting this new plan in January. Quite
frankly, I am surprised you do okay with Amherst. I sit looking at a no work sign many days and it gets a little tiresome. I have already been looking at other companies because I have felt for a long time with the lawsuits and millions going out MQ is not the place to be anymore. Too much baggage and may Spheris is in the picture especially if they drop SE I think that may well be true.
Proof positive that an hourly rate would eliminate those types of situations.
Lost account of 28 years to Dictaphone because hospital believes it will eliminate all transcription
Curious if any of you are working for Dictaphone or Infomatics and doing an account out of Miami with mainly ESL dictators? I was convinced I would not lose the account after a few days with VR. However Dictaphone is not using VR right away and will transcribe reports the regular way until they have a database. I am certain this hospital will never be done by VR. I posted a job on here about a year ago offering 18 cents per line to help with this account and not one person accepted after hearing the ESL doctors we have. They are that bad. Anyone else have this happen to them? Losing to Dictaphone And we have had to do most of the work for over a month since they supposedly took over because their system is not working.
