Does anyone use this program. Is it any good. I have abacus right now that I have had for about 8 or 9 years and I really like it but I just upgraded to Word 2007 and I don't like the way it does the new count. It is a stand alone now instead of working inside Word and it does not seem to be as accurate and function as well. Also I have Dorlands electronic medical spellchecker and I really like it because it will correct things automatically that I misspell and stuff and it words directly in Word but it is not compatible with Word 2007. Does anyone have any advice on this or any software that is good and works with Word 2007?
Thanks

medical spellchecker software
I know this has been asked numerous times, but I just updated computers and had Stedmans medical spellcheck 2005. When I called them to activate it on my new computer (I figured they wouldn't do it, it being so old) they told me it doesn't support MS Word 2007 anyway, and it will cost $99 to upgrade to that version. My question is, what medicl spellcheck does anyone recommend for me that isn't so expensive but is a very good medical spellcheck. Since that is what you all do for a living I wanted to get some opinions. Thanks very much.

Electronic spellchecker and line counting software for Word 07
Does anyone know of any line counting software and electronic medical spellchecker that works in Word that is out there for Word 97. I just upgraded to Office 2007 and my abacus does not do the same and I really don't like it in the standalone version and also my Dorland's electronic medical spellchecker will not even install on this version of Word. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions. Please help as I have to have this to do my job.
Thanks so much

Line count software?
Can anyone suggest a good line count software that is either free or inexpensive? I'm starting as an IC in about three weeks and need to have everything up and ready to go within two weeks, as I'll be on vacation for a week before I start. I need it to be inexpensive because I already have to update my spellchecker, buy a flash drive, and get a business license and things are tight financially right now. Thanks for any advice!
line count software
For my gross line count, I just use Microsoft word line count. For my cpl I use Syncount. Don't know how the others work but this one allows me to count two characters for a capitalized letter, underline, bold, etc. Also since I do not like changes, was initiated with this one and just kept it for those I use cpl. 90% of my accounts are gross line but just at a lower rate so it all equals out.
line count software
I would like some suggestions as to what program or software is the best for line counting on a document? I need something reasonably priced that would count a 65-character line with spaces, etc. Any help is appreciated.
Than my line count software but be ...
doing it by the gross line. I am using Textally from the same people who do ExpressScribe. When I put my document in it reads 783 lines but when I read the character count and divide by 65 I get 722 lines! My second part of the question was: is 9 cents a line a lot to ask if you've got tons of experience and they're happy with your work?
free line count software
I need a free download for line count software that is accurate, anybody know one. Thanks.  wordgenie
Line count software/program
I am in need of a new line count program. Mine is on a floppy disk (yes, it's that old) and I no longer have access to a floppy drive.
What is a good/reliable program to use?
Software suggestions for line counting. MP Count is not helpful
I am doing an IC job and was going to use MP Count because it also prepares an invoice. The problem is.. I dont think the line counts are correct. I swear I only did like 6-10 clinic notes and it had my line count at 1100. Am I doing something wrong or is there a better program out there. I hate to spend a lot of money as this is only a temporary fill-in job for this week but I want to be fair. I put in 65 characters and I charge .10 a line.. I just cant see charging over $100 for just that many notes. Any suggestions?
It's not a MEDICAL spellchecker. You have to convince them to add the medical spellchecker.
unless you feel like adding 10,000 medical terms on your own time LOL

You need to watch your line count. I was working for them and got reports that had line count of 0
You need to watch your line count. I was working for them and got reports that had line count of 0 in them. They did not pay for templates, they would deduct the template even if it was not used and deleted. I notified them and said they could not change it.
So I asked to be put on another account and they refused. I quit.
I was also promised they would have an incentive plan going into place if you type a certain # of lines. Two years went by and nothing.
I was really disappointed in OSI.
They also offered to pay half on joint AAMT, which they failed to do.
I am glad I am no longer there.
And there is a medical spellchecker
at most places (yes, I've worked places there was not and every medical term had to be added meticulously to the regular spellchecker. I've also worked places where the spellchecker had many, many errors in it, so keep that possibility in mind. Be ever so careful about adding terms, be they MD names or new drugs or whatever.
Use a program like ShortHand to help you with words you chronically misspell and common phrases, even if they are just English phrases. There are tricks. For instance, type ecoli and have it change to E. coli. But have some special ending (I use j) to add to it to make it spell out this tricky bacteria in full, properly capitalized. Do you think I remember each time the right way to type HER-2/neu ? No, I just type h2n and the above pops up for me. Plenty of tricks available for the trickiest terms.
medical spellchecker
how many of you use a medical spellchecker? I was wanting to purchase one. Do you have any suggestions as to what's the best kind to purchase?
Do you have the medical dictionary or just the spellchecker? I'm
curious about the electronic dictionary. Thanks.

Anyone know where I can find an affordable medical spellchecker and also an affordable copy of MS Word 2000 or 2003? Thanks :-)
Problems with medical spellchecker
Not sure but it could possibly be that your version of Word is not compatible with your spellchecking program. I recently had to reinstall my Stedmans and from what I recall, I did not see the version of Word listed that you were referring to in your post. You might want to call Stedmans or whomever you have your spellchecking software through and check with them.
Electronic medical spellchecker
Can anyone tell me the best electronic medical spellchecker on the market and where I can buy it? Starting a new account and it is required to have.

Medical Spellchecker Question
The other day a technician (from the doctor's office that I work for) was in my computer fixing a problem I had. The next thing I know, my medical spellchecker is nowhere to be found. He insists he didn't delete it. Has this happened to anyone else? Any idea if it's still in my computer somewhere or how you could tell. I did a simple search but came up empty. Needless to say I'm not very happy.
More specifically, free medical spellchecker, sorry about that..

DocQscribe Platform and Medical Spellchecker.
I absolutely hate the spell check on DocQScribe and wondered if any one knows if it is possible to get another spell checker to work with it. I have Sylvan Software's Medical Spell Checker and love it in Word. I also have their Shortcut word Expander and that works in the platform automatically. It would make my life so much easier if I could get the spell checker to work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
DocQscribe Platform and Medical Spellchecker.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get a different spellchecker to work with DocQscribe? I have one from Sylvan Software that I love and I hate the one in DQS. I also have Sylvan's Shortcut word Expander and that works automatically with DQS.
Looking for a good medical spellchecker that doesn't cost as much?
Is everyone just using spellex or stedmans or are there lower cost alternatives?
How did you find them in the first place? Just curious because I don't want a cheaper product to act cheap also.
Any ideas?
TIA
Don't need a medical dictionary, but you should have the Stedman's spellchecker loaded. Can

Has anyone had any experience with the Stedman's medical dictionary software? I will be starting with a new company at home soon and I'm wondering about compatibility, etc. Any info would be appreciated! Thank you!

looking for line counting software
 What do you use for line counting software? I am currently using Total Assistant Pro. It was counting accurately when I first purchased it. I even downloaded the free trial version to make sure it counted accurately before purchasing. (I charge by the straight line no matter how many characters are on it!). I'm not getting anywhere with support.

Line Counter Software...
Hey there ....
Does anyone have a lead on any line counting software for under $30-$40? I have TexTally, but it does not calculate the same way my Word 2002 calculates.
Thanx for your time.

Line counting software?
Are there any free line counting software products out there that are any good? If not what is the best one one that isn't all that expensive? TIA, Wanda
Line Counting Software
I would like info on line counting software so I can see if they are calculated correctly.
Is there line counting software that sm
will allow you to chose gross lines BUT also let you say that no line can be longer than a set amount of characters? So in other words if my clients lines are set so long and small that 95 char are on each line but my contract reads a line shall be no more than 65 characters, the software can pick up both gross lines over 5 characters and gross lines no longer than 65 characters???
Am I being clear? Anyone know of invoicing/counting software that can do that?
Thank you.

I am looking for software to count gross lines. I only have one doctor I need it for, so I don't want to spend a lot. Does anyone know of a good product for this?
thank you!
Line Count...
Does anyone know if the Word 2000 line counter is generally the same as what most MT companies go by? I'm trying to see how I do being paid by lines as opposed to report.
Line count. No way, no how, ever. nm
Nope!
Line Count
I have worked for SS for a few years and I DO NOT like the fact you cannot check individual line counts. I do not like having to trust someone to be in charge of my line count and I have no way of verifying it is correct. The line counts bounce all of the place. Try it yourself. I have a line count program and one day it is a couple of lines off and others over 10%. Not good and I can't believe they get away with this.
changes in DQS line count..sm
Apparently, now the ASR count is included in the "transcription" count. As of yesterday, I had to
look under "correction" to see ASR count and as of today, there is no "correction" listed. Hmmm.
line count
When they first started ASR it was under transcription, then they separated it, now put it back. Actually QC is a level higher than QA, at least that is how it has been explained to me, if QA can't fix it then it goes to QC
