Filezilla is the software used to transfer files to an FTP server where the files "reside".

Converting voice files to digital files
I have a Voice Solutions dictation system that will happily convert DS4000 voice files to digital when they are downloaded (wave files). However, it will not recognize any other files for conversion. I had a physician download .WAM files from his DS-30 and my dictation system would not convert it. Anyone have any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate any input.
Thanks!!!
Did you save files in .rtf format? The files need to be
as a Word document or it won't count them. Could be the problem.
What's a SOAP?
NM
SOAP
It's an acronym for SUBJECTIVE, OBJECTIVE, ASSESSMENT, PLAN. I recall back in the late 1970s when the hospital at which I was working as an RN began requiring us to write all of our notes in SOAP format. What a pain!
SOAP
It depends what format the client wants: I had an account where the only double spaces were after the heading (Name and DOB) and at the very end before the name of the dictating physician.
The body of the note was all single spaced, no double space between S, O, A and P.
PT SOAP work
I am an MTSO and I would be interested in talking to you further. Please email me.
Well that's quite a soap opera . . .
I used to live in Southern California and your description reminded me of someone I used to know, especially about interrogating the waiter. Loved that you called her the Bee. You sound very down to earth and she is not. As for the clothes - everything has a price doesn't it. She's probably shocked that those clothes didn't mean that much to you and you'd do anything to keep on receiving them. Good for you.
SOAP is a style.
Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Prognosis. Some offices like to their office notes typed in this kind of format, others don't.
Maybe you put that you do SOAP notes and HR

soap notes
Yes that is correct they are chart or clinical notes. The dentist that I used to work for liked the charts written up in that fashion.
S- subjective
O- objective
A- assessment
P- plan
SOAP Notes
I may sound dumb, but what is a SOAP note??
I used to wath soap operas.....
Now I just come to this board every day, lol.
HELP with SOAP sheet issue please!
I have my my own account of three OB-GYNs that use a SOAP sheet type heading on a regular piece of paper. It takes up about 2.5" on the top of the first page of each patient note. It is paper that is purchased from a printing company and they write in the patient's name, vitals, LMP, type of contraception, etc. in the appropriate areas. I have my margins set so I start typing under this info. The problem I have had is these sheets will jam up in any of the three printers I have and I just bought a new all-in-one printer and these sheets will actually get so stuck I have to tear them out of my printer! I know it is because they have been handled, written on, sometimes have corners folded, etc. I normally have a second page I print and sometimes even a third, and I print all the notes at one time or it would take me forever to print out their transcription as I normally have 30-40 pages from each doc! I even made sure the paper I purchased for second, third pages is the same weight as this SOAP heading sheet and it makes no difference. It does not jam with every first page/header page, but it does it on average at least three times while I am printing out one doc's work. This wastes a lot of my time, is frustrating, and I feel it is going to ruin my printer/roller bar with it jamming so badly.
When I spoke with the OM, she said they would quit sending these SOAP sheets with the info on them and then they would just add them to the patient's chart as the first page after I return the transcription. However, I just received a message when I returned home that the docs are not happy with this and do not want it done this way.
When I met with the OM, she said they can change this pre-printed "form" to a half page (which will save them money). I am not exactly sure why they do not like the way things have been changed other than this pertinent info is no longer directly on that first page of the patient's note.
Does anyone have ANY suggestions as to what I could do that they might agree to? I know I had mentioned to the OM when I met with her (to discuss going digital) that perhaps they could use the same form on a half page or even smaller as a label to adhere to the patient note and she said "no way"! They will NOT use adhesive anything. I need to resolve this problem TODAY so sure would appreciate some suggestions/feedback.
TIA.
The soap under the sheet really works.
My husband thought I was crazy but it did work.
Just like an H&P, but sometimes without headings, sometimes use the SOAP designations. nm

SOAP OPERA SCRIPTS
Does anybody know who types scripts for soaps or other TV shows? I've been an MT for 30 years and am beyond burned out with medical reports. Figure I could use a change and thought I'd really enjoy something like this. Thanks!
Not so silly. I still don't know what SOAP means.

Usually dictated in the same fashion, but sometimes the SOAP

SOAP vs office notes
Some of my docs use the SOAP -see below, all broken down into these paragrahs with headings.
S: (subjective)
O: (objective/physical)
A: (assessment)
P: (plan)
Others, my surgical oncology docs, just dictate and I put them in paragraph form and no headings. Also I have one that does the S and O and then puts his Assesment and Plan in one paragraph.
Hope that helps. Patti
Question regarding SOAP note...
For those of you who transcribe SOAP notes, do you capitalize each word in the diagnosis? I have seen it both ways, and I was not sure if there is a rule to this.

Thank you!
I take mine apart before it gets the soap and water bath. nm

Dawn dish soap for fleas
I had this problem before with some kittens. Soak the pup down and scrub it up with dawn dish soap. Apparently the fleas get caught in the "bubbles" and suffocate. Leave this on the puppy for about a 1/2 hour to an hour then rinse. Keep in mind that this does work BUT dry skin occurs.
Try Murphy's Oil/Soap - toothpaste is abrasive

Office notes versus SOAP:
Could someone explain the difference between an office note and a SOAP note when doing transcribing for a specialty doctor. Thanks.
Is SOAP format always in paragraph form? *sm*
or is it common to transcribe headings within a SOAP report? For example, a SOAP report with a PE section?
Thanks in advance!
Most companies do no use their only files (HIPAA). They use files provided by other companies, serv
If you can get through the test files, then the sound quality on the actual company files is better. And, the dictation is never as bad as the test files, plus you have QA to help with hard blanks.
I think you're in the wrong profession - write soap operas!!

Why I believe Mrs. Twitty is writing the soap opera and starring in it too!
Promoting her little dream of a soap opera with press conferences with her super glossy eyeshadow and false eyelashes. Sweet. How many opportunities does Mrs. Twitty get to get all this attention? Might as well milk it.
I use a mild, nondrying, unscented facial soap and
Oil of Old Lady for sensitive skin.
J&J baby soap at bedtime with a small amount of
coral calcium and glucosamine chondrontin with MSM daily with Omega-3 fatty acids every other day. Hair, nails and skin are better than ever at age 45.
SOAP's pay is higher even in the trainee/newbie stage. nm

oh my gosh, would you, yourself, bathe in DAWN dish soap - ouch!
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Vaseline works too and to rinse out use Dawn dish soap.nm

oh yeah, forgot that one. Worse than a soap opera. Geez! nm.

I am looking for samples of podiatry notes typed in SOAP format. sm
I have a potential client who would like to see some samples typed up and then let him know how much that report would cost. I charge by the line, and this is something that he is not familar with. Would appreciate about 3 or 4 reports, hopefully one of them being lengthy. TIA
Do you put "License xxxxx" on a SOAP note for signature title?
I am typing up a SOAP note template for a new PT. He gave me his credentials, plus his "number," which is his license number for his signature title. He did not say to put License in front of the number, but I think it looks funny without it. Has anyone ever done this before? Is it appropriate to put the word "License" before the number? He is away from the office, otherwise I would ask him myself.
Thank you!
My favorite moment on a soap was years ago when Hope was marrying someone else and Bo came up riding
on his motorcycle to break up the wedding and take her away. I always thought that was the most romantic thing in the world! My favorite was the Christmas episodes when Mrs. Horton would put up the Christmas tree bulbs of all of the family members and it was basically like reliving the old episodes.

Turn off the soap opera network and get a clue, drama queen!
That's what a lot of you around here do, find drama in otherwise innocent posts. Get a life, get back to work. And above all else, you call me a hypocrite and yet you sit in judgment of me.
Agree, verbatim transcription equals poor quality transcription.

Know AIM transcription system, never heard of Hull transcription. Are you sure
you are not thinking about DHull who is a recruiter for MDI-FL? They use the AIM system.
wav files
I receive my wav files via an FTP site and return the completed files the same way. I have a digital voice file player program on my computer, with a foot pedal, and play them that way. I type in Word, save the file, and send them back via the FTP site again. I like it alot, but the program costs $200 including the foot pedal. some have demo versions, like express scribe, I think, but I have heard alot of complaints about foot pedals not being compatible with it. email if you have additional questions.
FTP files??
I am really curious about these FTP files I see. Someone has suggested to me using FTP and a digital drop box through the internet, rather than using email to send and receive. Could someone email me and explain more about this to me.
TIA
wav files
Hi, I am assuming that you have a digital wav player and foot pedal, that it is already installed and operational?? I hope so. Anyway, you need to download your wav files to a certain folder where you will be able to *find* them. I download mine to a file folder I named *new voice files*. Your digital voice file player should have an area labeled *jobs* or something similar. I have Start and Stop digital voice player. once I click on the *jobs* button, a second window opens and there is a button called *settings*. Click on this, and you have the option of where to select your *new voice files from*. there should be a *browse* button so you can locate where you downloaded the wav files to. then click *ok*. You may have to close the *jobs* window and then reopen for it to take effect. Once reopened, all the downloaded jobs should be there and you highlight which one you want to play next. You may also have to click the drop down box in the file where you placed your downloaded files and click *all files* for them to be viewed. If you have any other questions, please feel free to email me. good luck. ks
FTP files
Try downloading your FTP files to your "My Music" folder. After you're done make sure the files appear in the "My Music" folder. Then when you bring up the Express Scribe and click on load the files should be there. Good luck!
Wav files
I work for a local company that has been using cassette tapes to do their work, but they have decided to try and do wav files on CD's. My question is - What exactly do I need to purchase in order to transcribe from this CD? Do I need just a wav pedal or do I need a pedal and software to go along with it? My company doesn't know because this is all new to them too. ~ Do you have a good wav pedal brand to recommend? Thanks in advance.
FTP FILES
Okay, this is probably a pretty dumb question to most of you, but what is an FTP file? Is this something that all computers have, or do you have to download something to access this capability. I have been an in-house Transcriptionist for 14 years, and we still transcribe from minicassette tapes. I worked for services many years ago, and again we transcribed from tapes. I am thinking of doing some part-time at-home transcription and see this term being tossed around. Could someone tell me what it is?
