I have been reading some posts about people using AutoCorrect and ESP...sm
I use my ESP constantly and couldn't live without it. I add several daily and have been doing so for years. Why would I use AutoCorrect also? I am wondering if I am missing out on some added benefit. Could someone explain please? Much appreciated!
Reading the last 2 posts...
really warms my heart. It really makes no sense for these MTs to get into such a tizzy about some simple questions. It is nothing personal, after all. One good thing about this is we get to work from home and do not have to meet these people in the office each day. My goodness!!! Just think about what your life would be like then, a constant unheaval. What tickles me is when others (who don't know you) tell you you have a problem. I never assume, not a good thing. The only problem I have is around the end of my work day and my little cat walks in wanting some petting and I am trying to wind up my day. Merry Christmas to all. Hope this New Year brings you much happiness, love and security like the last 6 have been for me when I married the love of my life.
After reading most of the posts below..sm
I would just like to say that it probably just depends on the program the office/hospital uses and the doctor's choice of how they want it done. Where I work the doctors could still dictate and I could still transcribe it and then the reports could be scanned into the EMR if that is what they had chosen to do, but it wasn't, and my position is being phased out. Lots of different ways of doing this type of thing, and unfortunately saving money is more appealing than having a finished report that looks and reads decent, so bypassing the Transcriptionist seems to be the way our area doctors are going.
I think you're reading way to much into these posts.

I love reading your posts..and having my own feelings
You are so right
after reading supervisor posts below where they are transcribing too, it does beg the question of
if you got to keep the work in turn around and you know you are going to have to do it along with supervising, you have the ability to cherry pick and no one will know. double dipping in transcription while picking up salary for managing should not be allowed.

new people are scary
I have an orientation this Saturday with an animal shelter, i'm debating whether or not to show. My main thing is the distance, afraid my car won't make it. I can't wait to see some new faces though. Make the call, you'll be glad. They're all good people if they are volunteering their time.
Wow. After reading all of these sad situations and posts I actually feel pretty blessed. I did sm
Have my car repoed about 8 years ago and it was the most embarrassing moment of my life. I've since come out of a rut with me working and having a husband who works FT. We are blessed. We have definitely struggled with our bank acct. being overdrawn to the tune of 700.00 before, but we luckily came out of that and it only happened once. To everyone who is in a dire situation, may you find grace and peace in God. Believe in miracles. Don't give up. Good luck to you and I mean that in all sincerity.

Thank you too! I'ts obvious that people aren't reading
into the reason for my OP. I haven't even suggested this option to my son. He may very well say, "No way" or his favorite line lately, "Whaddevah."
If it works, it works, if it doesn't, whaddevah. . . .on to plan B.
I won't stop until he's happy. My original inquiry was not about opinions about homeschooling. Geesh.
I agree with Amanda. How many people reading this should be working right now?! nm

Don't put people down like you did in your posts, eh? sm
"MS in BS" ring any bells?
You have issues.
Can anyone see the posts? People are posting replies. Wonder if it is everyone who is having probl

Why do so many people LOVE operative notes? I see posts about it all the time...
how they make good money on them, they could do them all day, feel cheated when they don't get them? I have been doing this for years and years and still kind of groan when I see them come up on my screen. Fill me on the secrets and maybe I won't whine so much when I do them. Thanks gal!
Can point in a direction but takes reading, re-reading sm
Goggle.com and enter various phrases to get articles and companies. I use a free doanload of ExpressScribe, yep, it is free. They have a number of various software things on their site to read and perhaps one will fit. The express Scribe is a piece of sotware to download, it is very simple and I like simple. You can listen and transcribe various voice file formats. You can use a wav pedal one is called a serial pedall and I think it is 9 pin and plugs in the back of PC and also another pedal I think a 15 pin wav pedal and goes in the USB port in front. However, you can also use it without a pedal and it works fine. You use a couple of key to stop, pause, rewind, I forget the key. There are a lot of pedals so don't just jump in. On this site you may benefit from emailing the company after reading and rereading, even if you don't understand. .

An error reading or a negative reading? (nm)

Just do a search and read the posts. There are plenty of posts about OSI on this board. nm.

if you live among trashy people, low income people, people w/o goals or direction,
content to just get by, you by default become a part of a group. "people" have decided to group trailer people as trash. that is because there are enough people in that group to earn the title and even if you aren't trash, you are categorized by others. did i think i was trash in lower class neighborhood surrounded by people who drank and fought all weekend? no but i knew i wasn't staying and did not try to pretend that all the fools in the neighborhood were just nice folks who ended up where they were because high horse snobs deemed their neighborhood low class. people for the most part live exactly where they belong because they don't want to educate themselves, they don't mind "trash" around them and they don't want to be bothered trying just a bit hard to extract themselves from that world. they justify everything to themselves i guess saying everyone who doesn't like their lifestyle is a snob and the comedians (Jeff Foxworthy/Chris Rock, etc) who make fun of them are just ill-informed.
As for me, I fought hard to get out and don't even want to look back. It amazes me people stay for generations.
scary
It is scary to think how narrowed minded people can be. Plantation mentality is alive and well in the South....So help us all....
Scary
Your last 2 paragraphs made absolute sense. I always thought, even back "in the day," that dictation to transcription was archaic.
However, I fit into the "over-educated but don't know how to get in out of the rain MT" category, so scary thought because if you thought of it, someone else should as well... and I do need to keep doing this at least until one of my kids strikes it rich!
Good post.
Now that is scary!
That is really scary to me No wonder that sm

How scary to have a dog like that...
as your neighbor. If you have children, PLEASE keep close tabs on them...I just heard on the news a few weeks ago about a pit bull (I think...) snatching a baby out of her mother's arms and malling her head badly. The baby survived, thankfully, but was very badly hurt. I agree with you, these dogs are inherently vicious, and no, it's not the dog's fault at all...it's the human's fault for training and breeding for fighting...how very sad for the OP..I am sorry...
What's scary is...
they are treating people. How does the patient understand what he is saying (if they deem to say anything). I know when I see one of these doctors I have a hard time when I'm not ill. My husband is hard of hearing but can understand if clearly spoken to and he understands nothing and refused to go back to a GP we had.
I'm sorry, but its really scary to me that anyone
let alone a spouse, could just go back to sleep and post on a MESSAGE BOARD the next day, asking about a SWOLLEN HARD TONGUE!! You have got to be kidding me. And I presume you're an MT as well??? What is WRONG with you?? Goodness, the blunders never cease to amaze me. GO TO THE HOSPITAL. And don't wait til it happens AGAIN - get him to the hospital NOW to have it checked out, diagnosed, and have yourselves armed with epi-pens, etc. A BENADRYL??? That's just insane.
Very scary
Makes me paranoid about every "normal" person I meet. I hate being that way, but when it comes to my kids I am happy to be labeled *over protective*
this is really scary -
Okay, is there any chance that anything in our medical records is going to be correct, either done overseas, dictated by someone who has little grip of the language, perhaps transcribed by someone with even less of a grip, maybe corrected, but in the money crunching, I doubt that, probably never read by the physician and now you are telling me that the doc himself is typing this info directly. I frankly cannot imagine this. I cannot imagine they would want to type it. They can't keep on track half the time just reading.
That's scary sm
I'm sure it happens - as Patti says - but personally I would have a very hard time putting something like that on a report I typed. It is the doctor's responsibility to review the report. If he/she chooses not to do that, that is also his/her responsibility. But if I type it on the report, that means I am aware that the doctor is not reviewing it, and I would be concerned that I could be drawn into a lawsuit if there was ever a problem with a report.
It's quite possible that would never happen, but it's also possible that Patti has just been lucky...............
Something Scary!
Let me tell you something very scary that happened to me! I posted a comment in support of one of the companies on the Jobs Board and the CEO wrote me back an e-mail to my personal e-mail address thanking me for my comments. I was shocked as heck! I thought our identities were protected here. Guess again. They tracked me down to my personal e-mail address. Be very, very cautious of anything yo post here.
Now that's scary
I just envision a scenario where a doctor dictates a dose wrong, we type it wrong, QA doesn't change it for this reason, newbie nurse reads it and gives it to the patient. Dennis Quaid's kids got the wrong dose. Kid here in Central Florida recently got wrong dose because pharmacist typed it wrong. But as MTs we aren't liable? Very scary.
SCARY
Wow that med thing is scary to hear about. I thought it was bad enough when my FORMER PCP tried to tell me hypertriglyceridemia was from eating too much animal protein. That was so dumb it was funny but med errors aren't.
A Walgreen's here is in trouble because they wrote a script for a 3-month-old, premature twin for cough medicine and typed 1/4 teaspoonful instead of 1/4 mL. Granted not a doctor but it was in the news recently and the kid could have died if the pharmacy didn't catch it and call the parents prior to the second dose being given. What is it medical mistakes are the 4th leading cause of death in America?
No kidding...that's just scary nm
Pretty scary. Do you actually think you
are Frank?
Danged scary if you ask me!!!!!!!
 (gramps at 100 target practicing)
pretty scary
I know that this does happen. I just try not to think about it. It's amazing how many physician's and other big tim professionals are functioning alcoholics and drug addicts. Even more sad is the fact that other hospital staff know that these people are enebriated and don't dare say anything to anyone about it.
is it scary though? or just gross?

Scary movies
Creature From The Black Lagoon.
The original Phantom of the Opera with Lon Chaney.
Man, I can't tell if this is scary, or laughable.
Are you really that uninformed? That IS scary. nm

Scary how close it was!
 I've been having to tape Tue/Wed shows because I am working and so I haven't been able to vote either. Next week I will just have to make an exception and watch/vote. Have to get Taylor through-whoo-hoo. He's my soul man!
Now THAT'S just plain scary!!!!
The omen was for sure very scary! And BTW,
Didn't Elizabeth Hurley name her little boy Damien? I like that name.  I always thought if I ever had twin boys I'd name one Damien and the other Julien.
Johnson!...scary, huh... nm
