to an F key. Then I put / wherever in the template I need to input.
So moving around is as simple as pushing the F2 key as many times as needed...
I also use the macro record and assign to an F key functions like block and copy. Then if you have to move a whole section of words to another page, it's one key to block and copy and one click of the mouse to paste and you're done.

Assign shortcut keys to macro Wordperfect?
I have to switch to Wordperfect after working in MS Word for 7 years. I have figured out how to record a macro, but how do you assign a shortcut key to it?
What I am wanting to do is jump to the next * in my reports because that is how I move from heading to heading.
The help section in WP just confused me
Any help is wonderful
Thanks
You can use Shorthand to make a Macro, then bring the macro up in WP. nm

Think you need someone on their end to re-assign the
s
Simply assign the job # to yourself...
and then hit next job.
assign key on Lanier-need help!
I'm trying to re-listne to a job I signed off. I need to find the assign key. My Lanier is not marked with that key. How do I find it. Thanks
Assign Key....Cindy
If you don't have an assign key, you may need to make one yourself. I can help you do this. Send me an email if you need further help.
You can assign any key combo you want to the
NextField command in the customize keyboard dialog box. You don't need a macro if you are inserting blank fields with Ctrl+F9. You can also assign a shortcut to the previous field command.
If they assign the worst dictators (sm)
to only you, you will have the same problem. The only files you will ever get will be the bad dictators. The favorites are making a living while you have to work twice as long to do the crap. It is so not worth it and I am glad I dumped services like that.
She's asking for advice, not someone to assign blame...
I really don't see how your post is going to help her find a solution to her problem. It is easy to stand up on a pedistal and point out other people's mistakes, but we've all made them. She needs advice on how to fix her situation, and "assigning blame" is just rediculous. I can't believe this thread even went in that direction.
I also don't think that it is right to blame someone for their spouse's actions. It is his fault for acting that way, not hers for marrying him.
Most companies assign a point value for each
type of error and used these points to calculate your accuracy. My current company reviews approximatly 200 lines of transciption every quarter. Then there is a calculation of error points divided by line count, then they subtract that from 1, and multiply by 100.
Example - 3 points/200 lines equals 0.015.
1 - 0.015 = 0.0985
therefore accuracy is 98.5%.
Most companies I have worked for require 98% accuracy.
Our error points range from 2.00 (MAJOR) to 0.25 (minor).
Thanks very much, Pebbles. What functions do you assign to them?

Re companion macro. Do you know there is already a macro
in Word that will create a document with all entries from both the normal.dot and the .acl file? The normal.dot only stores the formatted entries.
They assign harder ESLs to slow you down.
consuming to type very difficult dictators. In the long run you're make less money per hour. What the poster means, I think, is they want the work done and don't care if you struggle for hours or all day on ESLs.
Focus Infomatics - they assign work or you pick from database
I wanted to know from anyone who works at Focus if you are able to download work when you want to or is it assigned to you? I thought I heard that you can go onto the site and grab dictations when you wanted to instead of being assigned.
If anyone knows I would greatly appreciate !!
For the record,
the solo-practices and smaller offices are outsourcing to the hospitals...
can anyone set the record for
My record is around 45. Right now i'm on a report that is up to about 23. Talk about toxic!
re-record
If re-recording to digital, pretty easy. Play either in handheld or transcriber, and use either computer or digital handheld to capture. Just need the connecting cord between two units - can get at Radio Shack.
if it was in my medical record?
It would depend upon whether or not it could have a negative impact upon my medical care. If the doctor dictated something like, "The patient has diabetes" (when I don't), yeah, I would ask them to correct the record. But for something like what was stated originally ... heck no. Let it stay.
But that's me ... I don't have OCD and I'm not anal retentive about this business like others. Never have been and never will be.
I still think you need to lighten up. There's a lot more to worry about in life than something like that.
expunging record
Just a thought -- a friend had a felony from years ago expunged from her record -- but background checks from then on noted the expungement on her record -- which raised red flags in itself.
another broken record...
me too. It absolutely befuddles me that anyone would be trying to get INTO this field, especially with all the ominous signs that are right out there for anyone to see. I think new moms with babes are just blinded by the idea of "working at home" and can't see the competition they are facing. Me, I am in nursing school... not an easy job by any means...but I'll be good at it and will find my niche quickly and will always have a job! My biggest account is making noise about getting a VR system. If I wasn't in nursing school, I would be having a panic attack instead!
How did he get his record cleared?
You mentioned that he has a "clean record." I still have this thing on from 11 years ago. Did he have to do something in particular to clean his record or did it just drop off?
We all make dumb mistakes at some time in our lives, eh? LOL
Med Record Retention
That's a very broad question. It's my understanding that the answer depends on the State and the age of the patient at the time of service. Liability required juvenile records be kept forever since it used to be a base could be brought when the injury was first noticed, and that could be well into the adult years.
You have to record to the computer
Get a program like GoldWave (I think goldwave.com). You can buy a plug that goes one end in the transcriber and the other in the computer. One end goes in the transcriber earpiece plug and the other goes in the computer microphone plug.
Then play the transcriber while using Goldwave (or whatever) to record from the microphone input. It creates a WAV file or whatever you specify.
LOL. Did you tell your doctor so he could record it? - NM

That particular patient's record
is still confidential information, thus protected. Who knows, there may be contributing factors about that other patient and that is why the name was mentioned. Either way, if it was dictated to be transcribed and fits with the account specs, it is to be transcribed. I've worked for companies that did and did not allow patient and other names in their records, sometimes it just depends on what the client wants.

These 2 companies were just awarded all of VISN 7. Not sure exactly where the split is. Look on VA website for hospitals make up VISN 7.
Why don't you set the record straight Ms. AAMT?
Why are you sooooooo defensive?
Setting the record straight
You purchased an IN-155 foot pedal for compatiblility with DVI VoiceWav. (We have sold nearly 1,000 of these with zero returns.)
When you called our toll free 800 number for support we told you that the problem was not the pedal and was either the software you were using or your computer. Reluctantly, we agreed to do an exchange for you. (FYI, when your first pedal came back to us it worked absolutely perfectly and still does. In fact it is plugged into the same computer I am typing on at this moment. It has been tested daily since it came back with no problems).
Now, you voice incorrect information on MTStars. Your problem is in your computer.
Please feel free to call us yet again if this is not clear to you.

It is about CLARITY in the medical record.
It makes the medical record easier to read, which means more accurate patient care
Try expunging the felony record. sm
My friend's daughter did this after being turned down for a job at Target. She was an adult. You will need some legal assistance to do it.
electronic medical record nm
/
A.S. in Medical Record Technology
This included a course in Medical Transcription. Went to work in a physician's office. My job title was medical records, but the main component of the job was transcription. This led to later full-time transcription job.
It's probably an electronic health record.
They probably got an electronic health record where it is basically a point and click system that creates a progress note, does the coding, etc. I think this is going to hurt transcription greatly.
In Microsoft Word, there should be a record
of changes made and who accessed the report and made it. SOmeone with more technical expertise should be able to tell you what you do.
IT users?? Need ideas on how to record (sm)
the rad report MR#s, DVI#s, Accession #s in IT so to save me time. This is radiology and at times, recording the exam numbers takes longer than typing the report, so hopefully, you understand.
My idea is to open a daily list on the blank page of the IT screen and then save it at the end of the day. Does this sound plausible to you?
Thanks for your feedback!

After 5 years, you can have your record expunged. sm
If you apply for some high-level security position, such as law enforcement, FBI, etc., it will still show up, but otherwise, you can trully answer "no" if asked if you have any convictions, etc. You do have to go through an attorney, and I do not know how much it costs.
Hope this helps.
Let me tell you about falsifying a medical record
I know first hand it has been done and it was done about me. I had plastic surgery (3 part type) with face lift, tummy tuck and lipo in 2002. The doctor "forgot" to do the face lift. Had paid up front and I asked for the portion of the face lift only returned. He gave me an IOU on his office station but then later would not pay me and get this --- 8 months after the surgery he dictated my report, put in the face lift like he had done it along with the other. Now most people would say well, maybe he got you and someone else confused. Not so- this same physician who was head over the plastic at the hospital called me personally at my home, not through his office, but him personally twice in a threatening like voice when I tried to take thru mediation. I worked inhouse at the time and rather than risk my job, I left it up to Karma. This actually happened to me. I went to the lady over medical records, I worked in the same department, and told her exactly what had happened and she said I could write a note to put in the front of the chart disputing it had been done. Unbelievable, huh?
Re-record and C-phone question...sm
Hi all!
If I have an account that requires a C-phone, would I have to re-record it?
Isn't re-recording very time consuming?
It's been a while since I worked with a C-phone, but I don't remember having to re-record, and I just remember hearing folks on these boards talk about how time consuming this can be and how the sound quality can be different.
TIA for any expertise!
Unless you are the primary record-keeper sm
You should dispose of all of them. My rule of thumb for files that I keep on my computer is two weeks. I send them in daily to the clinic, but I do keep mine for two weeks as backup in case for some reason theirs get lost.
You need to dispose of them so that the information can no longer be extracted. I remember a long time ago we had a magnet we would run tapes and/or disks through which would wipe the data. I don't know if those still exist, or how well they actually work.
You might get in touch with the MTSO or clinic or whoever the information originally belonged to and find out how they dispose of their sensitive material.
You need two macros. Just record the steps
to change to higher level, and the second one to change it back. Be sure to assign shortcut keys to each.
Protective of the US medical record???
She employed offshore MTs...how protective could she have been? Are you kidding me?
Telephone Record Adaptor
You might want to look into getting a telephone record adaptor that plugs into your laptop sound card. Also would require audio capture software but then the files would be recorded onto your computer and from there you could transcribe them.
How to re-record off phone line?
Does anyone know how to re-record transcription off a phone line? TIA
The actual medical record contains
those things you mention. The dictated report sometimes does, not that is not often. Some facilities, however, do have the physician dictate everything imaginable and even if it is 1 out of every 10, that is still too much info to let out.
He did not start the electronic record, really
Why beat a dead horse? I have been on electronic records for years now, before him. I think you are a hater and any and everything you can find to say about him you will. This is NOT NEW with electronic records. Find something else to gripe about, ok?
If the law requires that a patient's record be
protected by HIPAA, and HIPAA laws have no effect overseas, wouldn't it logically be a violation to send the record overseas?
I think that is very unprofessional for a medical record. nm

How can I record patient data as fast as possible
Radiology patients, so reports are short most often. We have to log two several digit numbers, the types of exams (chest/abdomen) dates. We have sheets to do this on but am thinking I should keep Wordpad open and type in there.
Any ideas on how I can do this and not lose momentum or time? I do about 100 exams a day.
Thanks!
I still record but not onto tapes.. onto a digital recorder. sm
I use a skutch box hook up to the phone and recorder. Make sure you're muting out room noise, a speakerphone and mute button do the trick quite nicely.
I'm a broken record but I'm riding the train too
I'll just work as a nurse AND run my MTSO until the train falls off the track.
EMR (electronic medical record) and voice
Yes, they are pushing to make medical records electronic, instead of a paper chart. That doesn't affect MTs. We still transcribe reports and instead of the reports being printed and filed in a paper chart, they are part of the electronic record and can be accessed at any computer in the hospital , for instance. The doctor can sit at the nursing station and pull up all the dictated reports, the lab, radiology reports, etc.
Voice recognition, of course, is something different. There is no one saying that VR has to be used by 2012. That's simply an alternate way of getting the dictation onto the EMR.
