I want to work on escription program
what companies use it? TIA
Having trouble UNinstalling EScription program, as I no longer use it.
Does not work through "remove programs." Any ideas are appreciated!
It will count everything if you go in the settings and program it to. Good program!
Sylcount is an awesome and accurate counting program also. That will count everything if you "tell it to".
Get yourself a good tax program. sm
I use Turbo Tax Home and Business. Helps with all the deducts and also helps you with quarterly taxes the next year. I've been using it for about 6 years and love it.
It's a really good program. I use Shorthand with it.
Instant Text also works
good Spyware program
Ewido: http://www.ewido.net/en/
My husband learned about this from one of his college professors. We both tried it and discovered that it found stuff on our systems that other Spyware programs such as Spy Sweeper and Spy Blaster missed.
WW is a good sound program (sm)
that nearly anyone can follow because it involves "real food" and no restrictions. I don't know about you, but when I'm told I can only eat this or that and not to eat this or that, that's when I start to fail at a "diet."
I see someone else suggested Atkins, and from what I've seen of a lot of people on that, usually it's not a lifestyle choice. They lose weight but if they change their eating habits, pounds come back with a few friends. South Beach, from what I understand, is also along the way of Atkins but they do promote good carbs, I'm guessing whole wheat/grains as opposed to simple sugar grains.
If you are currently not overdoing it on calories and following a fairly healthy diet, I would suggest upping the amount of time you walk, plus making sure you are getting in plenty of water. I walk 5 miles per day, takes 60 minutes, and in my weight loss phase, I lost on average 2 pounds per week. Sometimes 2-1/2, but averaged per month about 8-10 pounds. Do you have an extra 30 minutes to add to your walking regimen? Also, I did light toning, which also helps burn more calories, even at rest.
I don't know what your budget is like, but you could probably drop that extra 20 simply by walking more.
good encryption program
MEP-- see http://www.deturi.com/oldsite/mep.html.
Also WinZip (the purchased version) has encryption.
Need help finding a good expander program
I work on DocQscribe and I use Instant Text. Does anybody out there work on a different shorthand program that is compatible with DocQscribe? Instant Text is okay but I am wondering if there is another program I would like more.
new at this... how do I choose a good expander program?
 Which is best Expander program? anyway to get a free trial to check out how these things work?
I don't mind paying for a good program. ;) nm

can you suggest a good software program
to compare with the line counts being given by the hospital? I am also in the same boat, but I can access my line count. I would like an independent way of counting my lines, because you never know, right? What a world.
yes AdAware is good, so is that cleaner program
but just to be wary about others that offer free antivirus and then latch onto your system so you will buy it...

Does anyone know of a good, but cheap spell check program? sm
Just did an upgrade to XP and have lost my "free" Spellex that I got with my schooling on my old computer. I have a new job but cant afford to buy the Spellex program yet. Any good ones that do both medical and drug names that is CHEAP? I plan to buy the spellex again when I get a few paychecks, but for now I need something. It is getting really tiring looking up so many drug names! 
Andrews has a coding program, & its reputation is as good as their MT course.

I tried South Beach for about 10 days and have lost 10 lbs but I want something that is lifelong and to me SB is too strict....Thinking about switching over to Weight Watchers...Anyone have good long term success with it? If so, how much did you lose and how fast?
Line counting software - Need a good program. Have used MPCount in the past, but now
cannot download the old one, as it has been replaced by some new version, which I don't like. Can anyone recommende a good line counting program. Thanks.
Good point. Welfare abusers, govt program misuse gets PR,

Also LOVE LOVE ESCRIPTION and make good money but...
Can I ask how you sit there for 8 hours. Lately, I'm having a motivation problem. When I focus, I can rack up the lines, but lately, I get so easily distracted. My mind wanders and I struggle to get my lines. Any tips on how you stay productive who do you work for?? I work for Transcend.
Invoices. Does anyone have a good invoice software program they use other than MPCount invoice?
I am looking for something professional and easy to use. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

PRD is a DOS program. I don't think it work with Word, a Window's program.

You can use Shorthand in ANY program, it works outside your program
I have never found a platform it did not work with and I have worked on several different versions of Meditech. Just start using it.
M-TEC has a Basic program (12 month) and a Premier program (18 month). To WAH, you should take the P

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

eScription
Just wondering if eScription has a word Expander built in or if you have to form your own? Never worked with it before. Thanks!
Escription?
Does anyone know of any companies that use Escription, OTHER than Transcend and MDI-FL? Thanks in advance.
Escription
Has anyone heard of Escription? Are they good to work for. I have applied and I am waiting for a response. Thanks, Nancy
Escription
They use transcriptionists from India. Local hospital used them, quality of their work was so poor, they got rid of them fast.
QA using eScription
From my use of EditScript and eMon, there is no way to track lines and reports that you have QA'd. However, I do know that eScription can write special programs. Have your employer contact the company and ask them if they can write a program to calculate the QA work that you do.
eScription
I worked for them for about two months and had to work a ton to get paid $100.00. If I remember right 5000 lines only paid editors $100.00 on voice recognition. I had to correct sooooo many mistakes that VR had made that it was just not worth it. I think you would be better off finding another company to work for. This company is slow to edit/transcribe for and QA is so picky.
Escription in MA
Is that company that you work for on MA that uses Escription in Woburn by any chance? Just wondering.
Who uses ESCRIPTION?
Please let me know. Thanks
The only Escription I know of is VR!
nm
Escription
Anyone out there familiar with the Escription software? Is this only voice recognition and no regular "old-fashioned" type transcription involved? Thanks for your help.
eScription
You have certainly peaked my interest with the comment of a great rate per line for editing with the eScription platform. May I inquire as to how much? More than 0.0491 per recognized line? And what is your average line count per day? All work types, or specific? I appreciate any specifics you care to give!
Escription VR
When you get the VR, it will already be typed, just needs editing. Unless it is very new to VR, then it needs a certain amount to be typed by the Transcriptionist before it is recognized. The corrections you make will train the software on the correct words. You can do a lot more than 160-200 with VR
Escription
I am in awe that you edit so many lines an hour! You have my admiration! What worktypes are you editing the most? Do you have to go into other applications to fill in header info, CC recipients, lab data? Maybe my employer is expecting too clerical duties in a report rather than just editing! I'm just trying to understand why my production is so low! Any tips from high producers will be appreciated!
eScription
Love the software and don't ever want to use anything else. I'd be happy to answer any questions about it. :-)
ESCRIPTION
I really wish I could help you-- because I really wish someone could help me with this platform - it's bad working in the evening and not having someone to help out when things are new.
Escription
I work using this program with a footpedal without an adaptor - I had to buy another footpedal when I started on this program - it seems that each program has its own footpedal that it works with - wish they would come up with a footpedal that was adaptable to all transcription programs.
eScription
I am trying to find out which companies use eScription platform. I have worked on this plarform for a while, but the company I am with is just not what I though it would be. Any info available out there would be appreciated very much.
escription
I went to the web site (escription.com), but couldn't find a list. Is this the correct web site?
escription
I don't know- I was told during training that we were to learn to be almost completely mouse free,and that they actually track whether we use our mouse more than we should. I have heard that once you get used to it it is alot better- I hope that is how it is for me.
Escription
I have been working with this platform for voice recognition for about 3 months now and love it. It is actually done on a Word platform, I guess, or the reports come out in Word - I do know that Microsoft Works had to be disabled in order to work on the platform. Short-hand works wonderfully with this - but in editing, I have found that short-hand is not so necessary. I get about 80% editing and 20% regular dictation. It is a great blend and you don't end your day with aching wrists. I have read where a few people are now having problems with their ulnar nerves, but I have not experienced that. It does take a bit to get used to, but for those of you out there who are frightened by it or by it taking the MT jobs - we have been being warned that VR is the wave of the future - so embrace it and search out jobs that use Escription in order to be a more valuble MT in the future. It has not affected my income and I do not feel worn out when I am finished for the day.
Escription
Does anyone work with Escription that could help me with a problem/question that I have?
TIA
Tina
eScription ???
What exactly is that? What features does it have that make it a better platform? Easy to use? Easy to learn? High producing? The eScription web side is advertising for an MT to to work with IT to evaluate, report and suggest changes to make it more efficient. I like that idea.
eScription
Hi. I am the co-founder and co-owner of eScription. I read your message, and I thought it could be helpful if I responded to your comments about me.
First, I did not buy another company or product. With my partner, Ben, we developed eScription's platform ourselves. We started the business in the basement of my home in 1999. Our system has speech recognition integrated into the transcription platform. It is not possible to use our system without using speech recognition. Also, the comments about radiology are interesting, but not representative of our company. eScription currently processes about 900 million lines of transcription per year with speech recognition. Radiology represents less than 10% of that total.
Second, as you indicated, I don't believe that speech recognition will ever replace transcriptionists. Instead, I believe that speech recognition is simply technology that can be used with other technologies as an aid to transcriptionists. We hope that eScription's products will be viewed as a technological change similar to the technological change that occurred when word-processors replaced typewriters.
I hope that eScription's technology ultimately helps transcriptionists by placing greater value on their minds than on their hands.
I read transcription discussion groups frequently, because I want to better understand the challenges faced by transcriptionists. I hope that these comments are helpful. Your interest in eScription is very much appreciated.

Escription
I canont answer many of your questions - but here is what I have and I work on escription -
Microsoft XP (no vista)
I do not know how much space it takes - as I have plenty of space left on my computer - so I am guessing not much. I also use short-hand with the program and this works fine as a word expander. I would think that there are others on this board who can provide you with more information. Is there a tech support person at your job who can help you?
