Due to the influx of bot spammers posting on the MTStars website, we have now added a module to the discussion forums that requires a 1-4 character authentication code before a message can be posted.
Because this code must be humanly entered, bots cannot post spam as they cannot get past the code entry requirement.
We apologize for any inconvenience, but we believe this will help to make the MTStars site less apt to a large of amount of spam.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email.

You can post a message for posters to email you, but you cannot name companies.
Due to potential liability we must limit what can be posted.
this has to be my favorite post ever...keep 'em coming! ROFL...(no message)

The FUNNY thing is that in the amount of time it takes for them to post a message

Posts are up for grabs. Private message is not. You would only post publicly to what, stir SM
something up? If you had an honest question, the proper thing to do would have been to ask the question privately. Otherwise, you look like you are trying to rile people up when you already know how everybody feels.
Venting-why do people keep putting nm and THEN writing a message?? nm means no message - sm
Please put sm if you have a message and NM if there is no message other than your subject line. It makes it easier when reading these messages. thanks so much and have a nice day everyone.
Tag code?
Not sure what you mean by tag code.
Tax code
In Ohio, since there is no actual code that reflects transcription, we use 99999. Worked for me with no problems.
Used to code
Coding is a game where the rules constantly change and they won't tell you what they are - but will gladly penalize you and your employer because you "should have known" all the rules they won't tell you. They actually have codes that are "blacked out" - in other words, they know what the right code is that will cause them to pay for a procedure, but its a secret beknownst only to them. "They" being the federal government - they say "ignorance of the rules is no excuse" but won't tell the rules. You fly by the seat of your pants. You can attend seminars all year long but still not know if you're doing it right. You live in constant fear of a Medicare audit where they will find the wrong code and accuse you and your employer of fraud, fine/jail the both of you, and pull the doctor's license. In transcription - the blame for errors ultimately goes to the doctor. In coding - the blame gets spread around. If that sounds like fun, go ahead.
Where do you put the code?

code key
The code key that goes with the software is probably triggered to tell it that it's already been installed once. It's an anit-piracy device. What you may need to do is call the software support line for the software and explain the situation. They may be able to give you a new code key for the installation.
Code of Conduct
This thing is REALLY for the ones that got all the lawsuits started, now WE have to suffer. At least we get paid for probably the most boring hour on earth!!
Also, see what diagnosis code
they used to bill. Might have been billed as a screening and that's sometimes a no-no as far as getting things paid. Obviously, you can't lie, but see if she had any symptoms at all that might justify the test.
Code Runner
Anyone know what this is?
JUMP code
I need to insert a "code" so I can jump from one place to another in document. using WORD 2002 XP. I had a macro set up for this and lost it and have tried to make another one, but when I try to do any macro Microsoft Visual Basics pops up. It will not allow me to assign anything to the keyboard...ANYONE? TIA
RU typing in code??? nm
huh????
MT or Code question
I am an experienced MT/now quality auditor---I've taken coding courses and am considering going for certification but for now it's on the back burner. The experience I have as an MT is invaluable as a coder---if you don't know medical terminology, you will learn it in a legitimate coding course but it sure was a benefit to me in the coding course I took to have the MT background. Coding is harder to get into than transcribing (my experience anyway) because you need to apprentice (in order to get your certification) and then usually start at a entry level even not as a coder at a low rate of pay when you are first working as a coder. I know the earning potential is enormous as a coder though. This is not to say all coding jobs start out this way, just what I've found. I have a couple of friends from my class who are coding, but it is really hard and takes a lot of knowlege but I imagine would be rewarding once you get established.
You would use the code *11 for the headset

I used to code in house
I wasn't cut out to be a coder, but I did fine at the coding itself. I coded and billed radiology. I had a problem dealing with the people end of the business - dealing with patients who called screaming that their insurance didn't pay because I didn't do "my job" right; dealing with ordering physicians who gave routinely unpayable reasons for tests and thought "radiologists make enough as it is because they don't have to see the patient's personally". I couldn't handle being caught in the middle, and the stress wasn't worth it. I find transcribing much less stressful because I no longer hear screaming patients or have to beg for a payable ordering diagnosis.
ESL is not code for bigotry. It is used in my SM
community of SoFla. There are ESOL classes in school and English classes for ESL adults. These are listed as ESL! There are references to ESL all over and there is nothing bigotted about it. It is not a "code" for bigotry, at least in SoFla. I don't know about the rest of the US.
I have already stated, I don't mind ESL doctors. As someone else pointed out, they know they have an accent and tend to speak very clearly.

Stop code
Thanks for the help
Each system has a different code
Each call-in system has a different code. My VDI is 36 to speed up and 34 to slow down, and 39 is louder. They can go into the system under keypad commands and tell you. Hope that helps.
what code do you put in each field so sm
you have something to jump to? I haven't ever set these up before.

Code Pink where I used to work
Code Pink was called whenever a patient went missing. Description of the patient was announced over the PA.
Was kind of interesting seeing everying peeking out of their offices looking for this person!
What do you want them to do, talk in secret code?

If you want to see the jump code, turn on the
Choose "Tools" then "Options" and on the "View tab" under "Formatting marks" check the "all" box. You will then see all codes including hard returns, spaces, etc., but it will show you the jump codes then.
C-phone access code ?? sm - HELP!
I bought a C-phone from E-bay. When dialing a number, I get a message telling me I must use the "access code." I am sure this is something that was put in there by the previous owner(s). Can someone tell me how to "erase" this directive or clear the machine?
RE: Can someone help me - how do I set up the jump code in Word??

Try #*11. That's the code I've used with every company. sm
That was # * 11, pound, star, 11 just in case you couldn't see it.
Good luck!

C-phone program code
Does anyone know if there is a code used that will allow you to save your already programmed keys whereas you do not have to re-program the keys every time you unplug your Dictaphone
You probably need your company's permission/log-in code, etc. to do this. nm

Time Code Stamps
Hello All,
For any of you who have had to time code transcripts:
Would it be helpful to have an MS Word application that prints an automated time code stamp? I ask because a programmer friend of mine and I have discussed writing a program to do this, and I'm wondering how useful it would be to you all.
This is how we envision it working: First, you complete the transcript. Then you open the Time Code Stamper in Word, and start going through the audio again. Suppose you want to put a stamp every 15 seconds. When you press a certain keystroke combination (ctrl-shift-f1, for instance), the program inserts a time code stamp in the format you specify. Then you fast-forward the audio to the next 30-second increment. When you find the correct place in the transcript for the next time stamp, you put you cursor on the spot and execute the Time Code Stamper program again. It will automatically increment the time by 30 seconds (or whatever increment you specify) and print the stamp. If you make a mistake, you can click on the menu and manually set the correct time.
I tested this out once with a very simple version of the program, placing time codes in a transcript every 15 seconds, and I was able to complete the whole document in about a quarter of the audio time (e.g., 5 minutes to complete 20 minutes of audio). The few errors I made I was able to fix very quickly and move on.
Like I said, we haven’t actually built a full version of this program yet, I just wanted to get some feedback from the people who could actually be using it. We’re thinking of selling it for $29 or so. What do you think?
If this particular program would not be helpful for you, do you all have any requests for Word formatting programs that would help you? We’re trying to think of different widgets that would be of use to transcriptionists.
Thanks,
Dan Edge
