ah yes, the hand-held recorder is portable.

Two questions: 1) What hand-held recorder do
voice files from their recorder to an FTP site or whatever to be transcribed? Does the doctor merely have to set his recorder on a docking station and the files are automatically transferred? I've only had doctors calling in by phone in the past, never using hand-helds.
I've seen hand-helds for $100 and also for $500. Just wanting a recommendation for a good recorder that is very easy for the doctor to use. If it's not easier than calling in, he won't go for it.
Hand-held digital recorder
No, you have it all wrong. I need the hand-held recorder in order to dictate passages for a novel to be transcribed at a later date/point in time. I have the player software, but need a hand-held recorder.
Hand-held digital recorder question
Thinking about purchasing a digital recorders to give my doctors the option of using. Which has the best quality of sound and easiest to use? Also, need an FTP site information.
Thanks

Anyone using an Olympus recorder . . . see msg
The ending of each recording is cut off. Has this happened to anyone else, and what went wrong? TIA
Does anyone use the Olympus WS-100 digital recorder? sm
Have to buy this, and was wondering if there is some way for the voice files to automatically be transferred to a folder. It says it doesn't come with software that does this.
If there is a software that automatically does this or if I can set up system where it does this when it recognizes unit, please advise. Thanks.
Olympus Digital Recorder
Not sure about the DS-30, but we bought a DS-50 for one of my doctors. I believe it cost approx $250. Sound quality is excellent. I do not think it was too difficult of him to set it up on his end. I use the AS4000 Transcription Kit and it works very well.
I have an urgent question regarding Olympus DS2 recorder...SM please
I have a new account and the office manager called me because the doc is off who usually uploads their DSS files to my site. I'm not familiar with this process and am wondering if anyone can help. The office manager got directions from the doctor before he left, but I believe she is missing one step. These are the directions she has.
Plug in the recorder with the USB attachment, make sure the recorder is on, go to the Olympus program, highlight and drag over the DSS file to my site. Well, the problem is that she can find the voice file. It seems like the file is not uploading from the recorder to their computer.
Is this something that is done automatically or do you have to manually upload the voice file, name it, and save it to their computer? It doesn't seem right to me that you would just plug the recorder in and it automatically uploads, names the file, and saves it. Maybe I'm wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Hand-held digital recorders. sm
Does anyone have anything to say about any particular model? I am thinking along the lines of Olympus or Philips. Thinking a docking device best. Any comments? Thanks!
Which hand-held unit is simplest for doctors? sm
Need a handheld unit, but need to know of simplest one for doctors to use. Also, is there a program that uploads the dictation as soon as you connect the unit that sends it automatically? Thanks.
tell him to get a hand digital recorder.--sm
he can dictate into that as he makes his rounds and not have to have someone follow him around with a laptop (what does he want, a personal assistant?) and if he does not want to take the time to download the files to a PC, he can have one of his lackies do it for him. no big deal to push a button and talk...at least in my mind. but spoiled gets what spoiled wants...good luck.
Dictate into computer, hand held, pocket pc or even palm pocket
Go to http://www.nch.com.au and see their dictation and transcription software. Works great, priced great, never had a problem with it!
Found the original post about the Olympus WS110 - do I need olympus software to convert the files?

I've used Hand-Eze and Thergonomic Hand Aids. sm
They help with the carpal tunnel and keep hands warm for me. They cover the hand and wrist but leave the fingers free. I wear them inside out, though, because the seams rub on the skin too much for me. I've gotten so used to them, that it is more comfortable wearing them while typing than typing with nothing on.
Don't talk about hand, I still remember the one that got her hand chewed up by her pet rat....
had nightmares for 2 days after that.
Well, if you broke your right hand and were right-hand dominant, can you see how this might be a fac
It may not be relevant at the time of dictating a physical exam or social history but in the future it would be good to know if the patient breaks the finger(s), wrist, hand, arm.
I think the parents should be held
responsible. I'm sure the rules are less strict for older kids (he is 16). But it seems a waste of time for the teachers if he is going to only show up part of the every week. He seems to think it is funny that he has really, really bad grades. Seems he is just wasting a spot at school and the teacher's time.
They held my return
They held my return as the name on the W2 did not match my SS#. Had to change it. Also with all of the problems with illegals it might even be tighter now. Good luck, why don't you just change it???
At my place we are held to the same
rules like applies for most, having to keep and maintain a high score of 97-98%, reports pulled 4-5x a year to check and we are graded so the answer to your question would be no, not just the bigger issues. Fast forward audio means I keep my audio at the fastest speed I can always, only slowing down to hear something I might not hear well. I do not use hot keys, only the mouse, was told others could edit more but that would be teaching an old dog new tricks. I really do not have any secrets, type straight really fast and I have for years, and still keep an hr by hr line count just to see how I am doing.
That is an opinion and the same view could be held
by MQLover and others who support MQ.
Rude and offensive are opinions...what some find rude and offensive others don't.
Apparently, everyone who complains about MQ doesn't find their posts rude and offensive, do they? No. So from their perspective, they aren't doing anything wrong but venting.
Same with MQLover. I don't personally care for her style but she and a few of the others are venting. It is their opinion. They aren't using foul language, which can be objectively judged and banned.
It's a matter of choice as to whether you want to read the posts or not. I think it is a reflection of how those supporting MQ really feel about those who constantly complain about it.
By the way, one of the posters in an above thread has found the perfect MQ complaint forum! It's called the Employee Complaint Form on QNet! Please use it if you have a problem with MQ!
If this is Spheris, they said the gifts were held up in

I have a Goldtouch. It has held up for two or three years already. nm

Are you held to a standard of lines per day.
If so, what is that standard. We have 1200 lines a day or 150 lines an hour. Is this the average out there?
I held down the clear button and the screen
cleared, but the program button will not work still...no buttons do. Maybe in another day it will dry out, but I need to work today. :(
Thank you for the help though!
I have held all the positions I mentioned without having an RHIT.
She was asking for ideas. I gave her some.
Maybe it was tough for you but it doesn't have to be for her. :)
Being held to 5 reports a day is just crazy anyway! You learn by doing! nm

Many co. use Canadian MTs. There are also many accounts in Canada held by U.S. MTSOs

I held both of my parents as they died from complications of smoking.
I told my children they were free to smoke after they did the same. There's not one smoker among my extensive circle of friends and associates, thank goodness.
Mine held back two weeks and pays
every two weeks, so we submit invoices on the 1st, and the previous two weeks check is mailed on the 1st. Two week pay periods. I agree with the others....I would never agree to wait until the MTSO got paid to get MY pay.
what state does she live in? Was she prosecuted and sent to prison or just held in jail?

Should've held out for the candy bar and refuse to leave till you get it!
Would be willing to pay for doc's recorder but sm
Don't know how to get this thing going. Do not know how you get their dictation to come through your computer. What if they do not dock it correctly and it gets lost forever? I don't understand how it gets from their office to your computer. I know it's a competitive world, but anyone willing to share? I know how the big companies do it, but the little docs with their hand held digital recorder, how do they do it and how do you get it without losing it? Once it leaves them can it get "lost" totally! SCARED!
recorder
I have over 20 docs using the Olympus DS-4000. A bit pricey at about $450 -- but ease/transition of use is minimal and voice quality is outstanding. Most started with the cheapies from Staples or Office Max, but so many recording errors, maxed out internal memory, lost files, etc, they eventually all converted to the Olympus. Good luck!
and how many liberal arts and science bachelors degrees & beyond are held on this board?
LOL
Digital Recorder
If doc has a digital recorder what software does he need to download dictations via internet to my end? I am still trying to figure this out - Express Scribe did not work. The work I have received from him is through Media Player and I am unable to use my footpedal.
digital recorder
I have Gearplayer through transcriptiongear.com. That pretty much plays any voice file that comes through. It is great!
Digital Recorder
Is anyone using the Olympus DS-30 for physician transcription. I am looking to purchase one for a doctor and would like some feedback. Thanks!
digital recorder help.....please
I am in the process of setting up a large group of drs with digital recorders. They don't want to spend too much money on the units. I was looking into Sony or Olympus. I actually have a Sony (only cost 60.00), but it will only let you email the files. I need to find one that can upload to an FTP site because there are 15 drs, I know it will be too much for an email acct to handle. I have been researching and asking at stores and web sites, but people are totally clueless about their products.
Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it
The recorder will not do that for you automatically.
You will need a software program to do that. I am not sure but I thought that the very high-end Olympus recorders could be set up to do that but you'll have to check on that. Check the Olympus site link below.
Bytescribe has a package that uploads/downloads but it my be beyond your $$. Also check with some of the other vendors who advertise here like GearPlayer. Search this site for some other ideas as well.
Dictation recorder
Would any of you have an old dictation recorder (digital) or know where I could pick one up at a discount? It is needed for someone to record a book - load onto a PC and then have transcribed. It must work with Express Scribe player. Thanks!
 
Something is wrong with HIS recorder..sm
It is on HIS end most likely, he may need to change batteries or may be in need of a new recorder altogether.
Digital recorder
Can anyone recommend a good digital voice recorder with MP3 playback?
What digital voice recorder would you

Digital Voice Recorder
www.transcriptiongear.com has a bunch of choices and they all come with the software to transfer the files. The software can also be configured to return the documents too.
Tapes and digital recorder
I courier for the tapes, the digital files I recieve by email, encrypted of course.
Could it be from the "source" (digital recorder) and not ....sm
related to a problem with Express Scribe? Just a thought.
ruled out source recorder as well...
I have used EP for .dvf files for quite some time now and even when I open previously transcribed .dvf voice files, which played at normal speed when I transcribed them months ago using the same version of EP, they now play too fast, just like the more recently dictated .dvf files I've received. So, it does not appear to be a problem with the source recorder. Keep in mind that all other files (.dss and .wav) still play correctly. I am only experiencing the problem with .dvf files.
These are all good thoughts, but believe me, I've tried everything I can think of, and I think it's something much more involved. There is a corrupt file or codec or something possibly, but I don't now how to identify the problem at this point.
I have gone through the Express Scribe user forum and have seen several posting made over the past couple of years regarding the same type of situation, but have not found a remedy for it in those postings. No tech support available for free version, so I'm out of luck there too.
Thanks.
Need help with choosing new digital recorder
My account is looking to buy new digital voice recorders. What they are currently using is discontinued.
They would prefer to buy one at a local office store where they can actually see it and try it. Price isn't too big of an issue, but ease of use definitely is and clarity a must for me. I will encourage them to buy online if needed, though.
If anyone has any recommendations, I would really appreciate it.
Advice to YOU..1st learn to spell before insulting poster and trying to give advice...sm
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.
