What companies use escription?
I've never used it, but am interested in finding out more about it.  Thanks!
Companies with Escription?

Can any of you suggest companies that use the eScription platform?  I work for a company currently who uses editscript and i love it.  Another company i work for uses beyondtxt which i hate.  i am thinking of looking for another company who uses escription to replace the beyondtxt company.  any suggestions?


Escription..what companies....
use them?  I am specifically looking for which MTSO contracts UMass Memorial Healthcare.  Thanks!!!
Looking for companies that hire IC on escription..sm

What companies hire PT escription ...
TIA.
Meant to say what companies use Escription!! nm

Sounds like TTS - Most companies using eScription run out of work often. nm

Any companies out there willing to train people for eScription that have never used it before but
,
Yes, I have checked into and worked for several companies that use Escription and Transcend has the
best pay..now, they just need more work so if you have steady work, then I'd stay put.
Companies w/Escription accounts that offer affordable family insurance??
I realize that affordable is subjective so whatever information anyone can give woudl be appreciated. The majority of Escription accounts offer IC only. Thanks
Anyone know of Escription companies that offer IC status. I do not want employee status but would
like to stick with the Escription platform at all possible.
Just be aware that not all Escription accounts pay the same. I worked for one company on Escription
struggling to maybe make $50 in 8-10 hours. I didnt know the difference as that was my first job on that platform and I just thought it was not a money maker. Then, I switched companies. I average $20-30 an hour and once I made $50 in an hour. I tried yet another company and I was lucky to make $9 an hour. The bottom line is that not all companies are alike, even though they use the Escription platform. What I have found is that goes according to how they set it up i.e. paying for footers, headers, spaces etc. Just dont be shocked if you dont make what you think you will. The companies know how to set it to where it benefits them and not you. As is the norm, not all companies are created equal out there regardless if they all use the same platform. That is what I am getting out.. Good luck.
TransTech and Medware, are these companies considered large, medium-sized or small companies? (sm)
TIA

I've heard that DaVenture Health Partners was recently made an approved vendor, but as of today they are not posted on the eScription website yet.
Escription????
Has anyone out there worked on Escription?  If so, what are your thoughts.  Can you make any money at it since it pays so much less?
Escription
Does anyone know of any companies that use Escription, OTHER than Transcend and MDI-FL?  Thanks in advance.

ESCRIPTION
Anyone working on escription, could you give me some advice on increasing my productivity.  Sometimes, I do okay and then other days it is so slow going. 
Any MDI MTs doing eScription
If you are employee as above, please tell me how things are there - is it a good place to work?
Any MDI MTs doing eScription
That says a lot. Thanks.
MDI-FL ad for escription MTs?

Anyone work there that can give me more details? What's the pay for editing there, dictators, atmosphere, etc? Also what about the radiology ad? Do they pay by report or by line? Thanks for any help.


 


 


Escription
Do any of you use this platform?  Do you like it?  Is is productive?  Can you give a time frame for the learning curve?  Any replys greatly appreciated.......thanks.
eScription
EditScript is Word based. It's very easy to learn. Works with Word AutoCorrect to save your shortchuts, etc. Very reliable from a technical point of view. Our facility just went live about 98 days ago, all 22 MTs are loving it. Most have already increased their productivity from our old ChartScript days. Does a really good job with speech recognition even with some horrible dictators - consistency among the MTs is key to that success.

Very nice platform, very MT friendly !

Escription
That sounds great.  I appreciate you letting me know that.......I needed to hear something positive.
Escription
I used to work where they had escription but was paid hourly at that point because we had just gotten it. Sorry no help. Good luck!
What is escription? nm
x
Their pay is low for escription, which is
probably why they are always running an ad.
Escription
USUALLY, not always, the doctor puts in the MR number which automatically pulls in the patient name. Some companies have you do a type of search using that number to pull in the DOS, DOB, location, referring doc all at once.
Pay escription
I'm a little confused by the pay. It sounds like they convert edited lines into a percentage of typed lines so you aren't getting paid a per line for editing. I think.
escription
What company pays the best for escription?????  You can get through the reports fast but cannot seem to make the money as well as I can typing!  I like the fact the hands get a break but come on!
Escription
it's okay after you get used to it - haven't come close to the 600 lines per hour that you are supposed to do - and pay for editing is less than half of transcription line pay - but you definitely do not have to type as much - less stress on your hands and wrists. 
escription
It is not difficult to learn but I found it to be slower than regular old typing.
eScription

Can anyone tell me which companies use eScription?


Thanks


 


eScription.
I've used it in clinical and hospital settings.
I only do eScription.
I only work on the eScription platform right now. I've never used Emdat/Inscribe.

I amm a radiology Transcriptionist and I would like to learn eScripition editing.  Do you know of any companies that offer training on eScription? 
eScription
Go to MT Daily.  They just placed an ad looking for eScription MTs.  They might be looking for editors.  Also, try Lee Perfect.  They are always hiring.
eScription
I have never used it, but if you say it's only editing then you are probably correct. I just saw it posted on MT Daily today.
I Like eScription
I've used eScription, and I really like it.     The people at the company are great.
Well, I'm on eScription.
And frankly I've been using it so long, I can't remember what all it comes with. I have stedman's on my PC and I know EditScript has some of it's own spellcheck things in there. If you contact whomever your supervisor is, they can let you know. :-)
Escription...
an hour can you edit? Is 700 an hour really possible?? TIA
eScription
I was hired with no experience in eScription. It was not a problem to learn at all- a couple of days to get used to it. I love the company I am working for now.
eScription
I will be working eScription. UMass.

eScription Pay
I haven't noticed any changes in the way that lines are counted with eScription. Who do you work for? Maybe they've made some changes.

Also, I get 3.9 cents per line for editing (8 for typing), and I am a very happy camper. I think that eScription works very well. It isn't perfect, but it usually does a pretty good job.
I'm on 5 escription there.
I had work maybe 3 days a week for the last month.
