Does Shorthand work with Medical Spellcheckers?
Just getting to know the Expander program "Shorthand", and saw that it says to shut off all spell-checkers. Does that mean that I cannot run Spellex or another Medical Spell Check program with it? Has anyone any suggestions as to what they use? Or any "work-arounds"
I am just getting started and trying to decide if I like "As-U-Type" or "Shorthand" better as my word expander. It seems that "Shorthand" does not act like a spell-checker like "As-u-Type" does, so need to add one.....preferrably a medical one.
Opinions needed on medical spellcheckers.. sm

Are you giving free medical advice?
You can stop for six months and see how you feel. There is a place for antidepressants. Some emotional pain is simply to painful to experience and function effectively on a daily basis. My dad was severely depressed in 1987. If SSRIs were available then, I wonder if perhaps he would having gotten out of his despair long enough to not make the decisions that finally ended up taking his life.
Get a second opinion possibly.
Do a Google search for free medical dictionary NM

Abacus is not free. It is $20 but worth it. You can download a trial version free which does not h
I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
Free? As in, free trial? Otherwise, I don't think you'll find a spellcheck software that's

Check out the free demo of MTStars FlashType. It's free for 7 days.
Then, if you like it, you can purchase it for $59.95. See link below.
I would buy new a Dorland's Medical Dictionary, Stedmans Medical and Surgical Equipment...SM
and Tessier's The Surgical Word Book, 3rd edition. Books you could buy used I would say would be Stedman's Pathology and Lab Medicine and Cardiology/Pulmonary word book. These are all the books I use the most during my day. You could buy other speciality word books as you need them and could probably go used with those.
I wouldn't bother with buying a drug book, new editions come out every year and I just stick to the FDA website and RXList as my drug references.
Also FYI, not a book, but I use my Stedman's Electronic Medical Dictationary a lot. It's easier to open the program than it is to pick up a huge 30-pound dictionary.
Medical Transcription In The Era Of Electronic Medical Records
EMR has revolutionized the healthcare industry in recent times. Many experts felt that EMR & Voice Recognition would totally replace Medical Transcription - however; the industry soon realized that transcription has certain advantages over point & click charting and many physicians preferred to dictate notes rather than document the data at the point of care themselves.
yes it is free....mine was free....why the exclamation?

There are free ones out there. I have been using a free one for 5 years. sm
Just have to research FTP server software.
free? We are not *free* - what planet R U on?
Free? Liberal? You know nothing about me......I'm a 4th generation American so don't get up in my face......
We have a bad bad reputation today....and we do NOT HAVE 60 ALLIES/COUNTRIES BACKING US UP IN IRAQ....you better open up your eyes to the REAL stats. Perhaps in 2003 we had 60 allies/countries backing us up....NAME 60 today. I can name maybe 10 countries.......
You are terribly off-base.........even the soldiers have spoken up stating *unfortunately, this has become OUR vietnam* -
here's where you might think of beginning...iraqi veterans against the war......not a liberal website by any stretch of the imagination..

I've thought about coding. My DH does medical coding and I think with an MT's medical termino
background and anatomy and physiology knowledge, a transition into coding wouldn't be hard at all. From what I can tell by looking through my husband's books, an MT would have to learn insurance regulations and legalities. We've basically got all the medical background down or we should be if we're worth our salt as an MT.
I even contacted AHIMA and found that the qualifications for taking the CCS or CCP coding exams are completion of the a coding program, RHIT program, or RHIA or related work experience. Transcription is part of HIM, albeit the red-headed stepchild of the HIM department, but a part nonetheless and so satisfies the qualification of having work experience.
The test is tough though. My husband didn't pass it his first time out and I think I read something like only 20% or so pass it the first time. So it would probably be best to take some sort of formal coding class, in my opinion.
medical abbreviation list and medical drug list
Hi,
Anyone there who could help me out finding the latest abbreviations list.
I even want the latest drug list because my current program does not have many drugs.
So if anyone could suggest anything which is available online for informationd quick look purposes.
any help for medical abbreviation list and medical drug list would be very helpful.
Your English teacher does not do medical reports. This is for medical reports.

It's not a MEDICAL spellchecker. You have to convince them to add the medical spellchecker.
unless you feel like adding 10,000 medical terms on your own time LOL
AVG free
I used McAfee, Norton, Panda, etc, all types of viruses and worms slipped through and caused my computer to crash. I now use AVG free edition, free upgrade every day and free check every day of my computer, that I set at at 4:00 a.m. If in doubt try www.worldstart.com, lots of computer geeks there and they will answer your questions about computers, etc on their message board. They have helped me a few times with reliable, good information about many different problems on my computer. Good luck.

Nothing is free!!
My family is in the restaurant business and I can cook like a maniac .. so screw the free meal stuff!! I am over 50 .. look great for my age .. make very good money .. have no bills .. and though my daughter lives here she is 32 and wishes I would meet someone and cut her a break!! I was a nurse in another life. Do I want to take care of someone whose body is in worse shape than mine .. no; do I want to cook for someone who makes a mess I have to clean just because the moron breathes .. no; do I want to hear the constant whining, burping, farting, dribbling, and all that other geezer stuff .. a thousand times no!! So, I find a guy who is 10 years younger than me and he is crazy about me and likes my old body, and we get along great .. but I have issues with the 10 years and I feel I am more than a wild piece of keister and nothing is free .. and that is on a good day!! LOL! Oh, yes, and he is cute as a button too .. I must be over the edge. Maybe not 
Can anyone tell me what the name of the free SM
wav player is? I think it is E something or the other.
Thanks for your help.

Please tell me the name of a FREE
Thanks!
This one is not free. If someone KNOWS of one
Thanks.
I don't think there is another free one
There are different footpedals available though, and not all are interchangeable between transcription modules. I have two pedals, one that I ordered to use with Express Scribe that connects via serial port, and then I got a new computer that did not have the serial port and I also began using the Olympus module, and so I ordered the Olympus pedal, which has two connector ends that you can switch so that you can connect via either serial port or USB.
I am not sure why the pedals are not interchangeable (some of them can be used with more than one module, but I just do not know how to tell the difference other than ordering the pedal based on recommendations from the software manuf. of the transcription module).
I also have had a problem with the Olympus pedal that started after I began loading .wav files into it. It is made to be used with .dss files, but plays .wav and other file types as well, but when I have been away from the computer for a while or when I have closed the programs and reopen them, I often times will have to reach behind my tower and unplug the pedal and then plug it back in. I am not sure what has caused the problem though because for the first couple of months using the Olympus I never had to do that.
AVG is free

...or you can do it for free (sm)
by eating less and exercising more. I'm not being a smarty, but this method had me from 235.5 pounds to the 119 pounds I am now, so I'm just speaking from experience. I even kept it off through a pregnancy because I learned how to eat regular food in an intelligent way.
These weight loss plans do NOT offer the secret code. It's within the person who wants to lose weight!
I'm getting it for free
We bought a couple of new HP computers this fall and we get a a copy for free, which we should get within a couple of weeks. We will probably install in on a spare computer to see what it is like before putting it on our new ones. Hopefully the software that we use for work will be compatible with it!
Do you want to pay for it or want for free?

No fee; it is free
There is no fee; you must have clicked the wrong button. I'm sending the signatures myself (out of my pocket) to DC. Try again; no fee to sign it. It is free. http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/medrecords/
I use AVG Free.
I bought a refurbished hard drive and loaded microsoft office 2003. So many companies are not allowing Vista or 2007, so I felt this was the way to go. I have had good luck so far and a great running system.
I use AVG Free also. I also have several other
programs for adware, malware, and spyware. I usually search Kim Komando's site for things like that. I find that she is pretty much on the mark with her choices, recommendations, etc. When I hear that I "need" to install something, I figure if I don't know what it will do or not do, then I just leave it alone. A good running computer is a happy computer. Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Not OP but I have done this for free too
I go in through the IRS's website and select Free E-File and go from there. You can choose from several different software programs. I have used H&R Block for the past 3 years this way and have never paid a dime.
AVG Free
This is an anti-virus program that has been recommended by all my "tech gurus" including Hiwired.com -- its free and comes HIGHLY recommended.
Hey a free one!
I'll check that out too. Thanks!

I think it expires in 60 or 90 days. Then you have to pay
Free help
One of the best anti-virus programs out there is AVG 8.0, and you can download it for free. Combined with Spy Sweeper by Webroot, your PC will be completely protected. Ad Aware is another good one.
Today I have been poring over job listing sites looking at the openings posted, and I picked up several viruses. There is so much junk out there....
RE: Free
They will replace it for free. I didn't know that. You just contact them and they will replace it. I just kept buying them.
?? A free AV that did that...sm
..would hardly be likely to sell its "paid" version to anyone. Nothing like that could go unnoticed by the technical community and their reputation would be trashed instantly.
AVG supports its free version through the sales of its paid version and offers the free version as a service to the computing community. In doing so, their free version has a very good reputation. I recommend the paid version simply because it is a much more complete package of protection.
Are you looking for free ones?
Googling found one that's $18 for a CD manual, but I didn't stumble across anything free.
free software....
I guess I'm just ditzy.... but what is all this about the software... how do I access this?? Thanks for your patience!
free software
Oh - gotcha. Thanks.... but what is everyone going on about the new features?? I'm still lost on that - 
You can try ShortCuts for free....sm

Since ADVANCE is free, there would
be little immediate impact if we cancel our subscriptions. Contact the advertisers and express your displeasure. They're the ones who provide the income stream for ADVANCE. They need to know that the people they're trying to reach are displeased and that their companies are associated with an extremely unpopular position.
I use Free MP Count
A long time ago I used Sylcount, then I used DocuCount on my old computer but when I upgraded to a new computer/software, I had to find something else. I compared Abacus and MP Count and I, personally, was happier with the consistent counts I got with MP Count. Also, Joe Vann supports his product well - even the free version! It makes for a very professional Invoice/billing statement that I use for my own local account.
