anyone know of any services who use this unit?  Thanks!
Freelance copy writer here - sm
$25-$45 an hour or per project.  It isn't steady but it pays for the extras! 
DOLBEY FUSION AND MEDITECH
Can anyone tell me if this is a productive program or not.  It is a wav player right?  I hate expresscribe because when you slow or speed up it sounds bad.  I like Bytescribe.  I am being offered an account using Meditech supposedly a new version because you type in word and using Fusion for voice.  Meditech scares me as well but am wondering if maybe this so-called new version is different....
Info on meditech/fusion
Hi there! I currently use Meditech and Fusion and the new meditech is really no different than the old, just a few new shortcuts and function keys, it was only an upgrade but looks the same. It works fine though, with Fusion it auto uploads to our meditech now which is nice. HOpe this helps! Happy holiday :o)
I don't know the Fusion platform mentioned (or whatever it was) anyway, but I am curious sm

as to why you react so negatively.  If you'd care to share, I'd appreciate it.


Thanks.


For a great radiology program, you want Fusion RIS (formerly RIS Logic)

Now THAT'S a nice, quick, simple radiology program that you can use ShortHand with and WinScribe or whatever waveplayer. Ahhhhhhh!


Anyone work on Emdat? sm
What's it like? Good for production?
Emdat work
I never worked on escription, but always ran out of work in Orthopedics Emdat account. I barely made 300 lines a day. I do not like being in a typing pool. The moment the work is in the pool all of the MTs are online and grabbing all of the work and it's gone in no time! Not worth it in my opinion. That's probably why they are hiring again. Nobody made any money. Typing pools stink in my opinion, but I guess some companies have to meet TAT.
I work on that Emdat program and love it

The account I work on is on Emdat Inscribe
good company.
They use Emdat. Only paying 7-8 cpl + production. Clinic work. nm

What companies work with Bayscribe, Emdat and Inscribe?
Also MedRemote?  I have worked with all of these platforms and they are very nice, just wondering who uses these.  TIA!
Hired by Emdat or using Emdat software?
I was of the impression that Emdat was software, not a transcription company. Were you hired by Emdat to do transcription for Emdat customers? Or is the company for whom you work just using the Emdat software? Thank you.
Anyone work for Oak Transcription or Nicholas Transcription- please e-mail me nm

anyone work for US Transcription
Does anyone have any pros or cons about a MT company called US Transcription out of Wisconsin, Iowa or North Dakota?
Anyone work for J&M Transcription?

Is J&M Transcription a good company to work for?  Do they run out of work often?  Tell me all about them please.   Thanks


Anyone work for TC Transcription
Does anyone work for TC Transcription out of Florida?  If so, i would love to visit with you and i have tested with them.  Thanks.
Does anyone work for CNC Transcription or know if they are still around?
:-)
Do you work for U.S. Transcription?

This company is based in the midwest and I was just wondering if they are a good company to work for.


Any advice would be appreciated!


Thanks :)


Anyone work for p.r.n. transcription
past or present?  Can't find anything in the archives on them.  Just wondering about the good, bad or the ugly on this company.
Emdat
I've never used Netcare, but Emdat is great!  Easy to learn, easy to use.  I honestly have no complaints about it.   
emdat
oh thank God! I thought it was just me. I worked for a half-day or so on a trial basis for a company using this platform several years ago and i never got how it could NOT stink!! I though it was because they send IMs every two seconds about the weather........but I spent more time on that platform trying to get it to work than I ever did transcribing anything.
Im so glad it was not just me. Emdat - never, ever again.
7 cpl on Emdat
In defense of Allegiant, this is without a doubt the PERFECT job for me. I work whenever I feel like it, nobody bothers me, and I'm only obligated to transcribe 500 lines in 24 hours.

I worked for a large company and made 10 cpl. I had constant interruptions with emails and IMs from an idiot supervisor. I had to research new drug names and instruments and procedure names on just about every report. I was tickled if I transcribed 150 lph. I worked for a smaller company and made 9 cpl and spent half my time with my foot on the backup pedal trying to understand ESLs. By the time my shift was over my head was splitting. I work for Allegiant, make 7 cpl and average 250 lph without breaking a sweat. Not too shabby. JMHO.
What is Emdat? (sm)
Please, what is Emdat?  Also are you limited to transcribing 500 lines per day or can you do as much as you want?  Thanks. 
7 cpl on EMDAT

We pay significantly more than that at Lee Perfect.  If you have 5+ yrs exp in a clinical/hospital setting that is current/recent.  I would love to see your resume!!!!

Not a fan of EMDAT

I had the same problem.  I cannot stand typing using the F1 function keys.  I would call technical support where you purchased the foot pedal from and tell them your problems.  If the foot pedal does not work on your computer then get your money back.  I cannot stand EMDAT.


Former EMDAT user.


 


EMDAT
Lee Perfect out of Chicago and Allegiant out of Indiana use EMDAT religiously.  Apply there.  They are ALWAYS hiring!!!!!!!!!!!!
EMDAT
I know that Greenlight Transcription out of Oregon does, Phoenix Medcom, and Allegiant. All three are good companies and they always pay on time every time!
EMDAT
EMDAT is a platform that MTs use to type notes. It is very user friendly, but you have to set up your own auto correct. Your regualr auto correct from MS Word will not work, which I did not like at all. You have to purchase a separate foot pedal from the other USB pedals and it costs right at $100.00. Good luck!
EMDAT

The owner makes excuses as to why she has not done this or that.  Some like it, but her pay is very low and no feedback for QA.  I think you only get paid if she does by her clients.  Do not know for sure though.


Emdat
Can anyone tell me about Emdat? I have an IN-DB9 pedal.  Is that compatible?  Thanks in advance!
Emdat
Not true.  I worked for a company using Emdat for a short time and I did not have to buy a special pedal.  I used my USB pedal, the same pedal I have used for numerous jobs.  However, I personally did not care for Emdat.  It conflicted with my version of Word. 
Emdat
You might want to try Professional Dictation Associates (I think that is the name of the company). They pay over 8 cents off QA but why you would want to work on an Emdat system is beyond me. I hate it. I think that is one of the worst VPN ever, but that's just me. I know there are MTs out there who like it. I'm just not one of those.
EMDAT
Can anyone tell me how EMDAT is to work with? PC requirements, foot pedal, etc?  Thanks!
I like Emdat
I've been working on it for about two years now - no real problems, very user friendly.
Emdat?
I find your post interesting because I am a fairly new MT and Emdat is all I have ever known.  What do you feel is bad about it and what platforms do you like better? I'm really curious.  I feel like I've got it pretty good, but if there's something better, I would love to check into another opportunity.
EmDat

I was offered a job using EmDat and have never used that before.  Is it a good platform and easy to use?  Can you get your line counts okay on this or does it slow you down.  Any information would be appreciated.  Thanks.


EMDAT
This is a great platform IMO! I found it very easy to use and very, very easy to get my lines in and then some! The only down side (if you want to look at it that way) is that for most companies now a days you have to have a special EMDAT only foot pedal to work with them instead of the old school use it with Express Scribe and multiplatform foot pedal. Good luck!
emdat

I am having trouble too but what area are you in.  Comcast has a major outage in Pennsylvania, part of Delaware and part of New Jersey.


Emdat
Emdat is not very good when you have fast speakers. You are not able to control the speed at all.
EMDAT
You most certainly can control the speed with EMDAT.  You must not have the correct version or something.

EMDAT
Zylomed uses Emdat.
EMDAT
They use EMDAT, which I think is a decent platform.
Emdat
The spell check sucks.  it is NOT MT Friendly and the line rates do NOT add up at all.  I hate it.
emdat
You need to download the program. You do not need a special foot pedal anymore. I have been using this for almost a year now, and both of my pedals work with no delay (settings). My sound is just fine and I can adjust easily. The spellcheck does stink though.
Emdat
Everyone is entitled to their opinion.  I have been working on the Emdat platform for over 6 years now with 4 different companies.  I have never used a foot pedal.  I use the function keys, F2 to start and stop, F3 to fast forward and F4 to rewind.  Piece of cake.  Very user friendly program. 
EMDAT
I disagree. I found/find EMDAT to be very user/MT friendly. I make my line counts very easily. I worked for a company making 2 cpl more using another platform than in my EMDAT job, but made more money per hour ($3 more per hour) at my lower paying EMDAT company. I hope this helps:)
EMDAT....
I totally agree with Red, I also went from a higher paying job with another platform to EMDAT and have absolutely no problems with lines or the platform. Whatever problems were before, certainly have not been there the last year.
Emdat
I've been working with Emdat for 3 years and I love it too. Would hate to learn a new program. Like you, I have literally thousands of short cuts in Autotext. I don't use a pedal but hotkeys... even easier.
