Dictaphone ExText is quick and easy.
Is this for acute care?
TransTech and Keystrokes also offer some Dictaphone ExText accts. Very easy to

I love it. It is fast, easy to learn and easy to use.

Nuance is the parent company of Dictaphone. Dictaphone makes ExText.

Does Dictaphone obtain the accounts for the companies who use Dictaphone EXText?
I was just wondering if this is the same as it used to be.  Dictaphone installs the equipment in facilities and then gets a MTSO to take the account.  Therefore, the MT company never solicits for accounts, but Dictaphone notifes them when they have installed equipment in a hospital.
It's easy to learn...

Not sure what kind of advice you're looking for... I don't think you should be freaking out.  It's the best platform I've ever used and it's very easy to learn.  I'm sure this isn't giving you anything helpful, but not sure what you want to know. 


 


I usually do it the hard way too, but I learn the easy
way in the process usually.    We have to remember that computers are only machines - LOL. 
Bayscribe is very easy to learn.
The training lasted about 1-1/2 hours, but most of that was installing it.  The trainer went over a few functions and the rest is in the manual, which is very easy.  I went from DocQScribe to Bayscribe without any problem.  Bayscribe doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but it works well.  Everything is on 1 screen (all the demographics).  I have no problem making my counts on it.
I found it very easy to learn and like V8 even more. sm
I felt comfortable within a half an hour. The demographics are even easier on the version 8 (newest upgrade) and most of them are filled in for you with very little need to make changes.  Once you learn the shortcuts the editing becomes second nature.  My suggestion is to practice them one or two at a time until your fingers do them automatically and then move on to adding to your shortcuts and eventually you'll be using them all as second nature as normal typing.  I do about 90% editing and 10% typing and I'm happy with that mixture, sometimes more, sometimes less. I make more than double my lines with editing so the decreased pay per line equals more than I do with straight typing.  Of course there are days that are the exception and I get a lot more edits than usual and it brings my counts down but on a majority of days I will do about 550-600 lines editing and typing about 220 lines per hour, on a comfortable working hour.
Their platform is easy to learn...
Softscript's work interface is three-fold: a proprietary report client which downloads, uploads, and retrieves ADT; an audio player in the background; and MS Word which automatically opens the report for you--all you do in Word is type and save. I don't see why Instant Text wouldn't work; MS Word itself has a similar auto-replace function as well.
The platform is Scribe. EASY to learn and use.
The line count is straight 65 characters with spaces and you can see your count which is important to me.

Today is supposed to be my day off. I needed to do a bunch of errands and catch up and do closets. So far, it's almost 10:30 and I have been on here all morning! I need to scoot!
very easy to learn - good platform
I have worked on a few different platforms and this one works well. Very explicit account specifics as well so it makes it much easier to do your job.
Love Ex-Text - easy to learn

Platform is fairly easy to learn, pay is

low/average, trainers/supervisor are helpful (at least the ones I've dealt with have been), bennies 35+ weeks.


Don't know, but similar to typical and very easy to learn. NM

Platform super easy to learn
I had heard horror stories about SoftScript before I accepted the job (realized you can't believe everything and took a chance). I gave them a shot and have been thrilled. The platform is super easy compared to some of the other Nationals I have worked for. Pay is a about 8 cpl, but that seems standard for Nationals. Tons of work.

I would recommend SoftScript to anyone and I have worked for the worst, MQ, Transcend, Medsribe, etc.
easy to learn, but not good for productivity

Medrite is very easy to learn, transcription friendly...nm

Just started it last month. It is nice and easy to learn
as long as you have experience with ExText or ExSpeech....All the things I thought were flukey with ExSpeech have now been corrected in EX Editor. You will enjoy it.
TT has plenty of work. The platform is super easy to learn and
I'm not having any trouble at all making good line counts doing ESL discharge summaries. Super nice people as well.
ChartScript easy to learn/use/good line count?

Please post any experiences you have had with this platform. Also,does Diskriter provide good insurance and have plenty of work?


Is it easy to get required line counts?


OSI uses Dictaphone Extext

Dictaphone/EXText
EXText is the word processing program which works with MS Word and is marketed by Dictaphone company. Transnet is the voice file player that works along with EXText to play the voice files. Hope that helps. :)

Can anyone who uses this program tell me if there is a way to slow down the voice or speed it up?  Thanks for any help.

If a company says they include headers, spaces, etc. in their line count, how can you make certain they are included?  Do you copy the report, place in Word and check that way or what?  Hope this is not a stupid question.  If it is.....sorry.  Thanks.
Does DTS use Dictaphone Extext?

ExText is from Dictaphone

they use dictaphone extext
great platform, although I prefer DocQScribe now. If you have lots of oncology experience, you will do well there. The line count in their program is not accurate, so don't be alarmed. Make sure they give you the link to get your accurate line count. Owner is great, but don't know how much one-on-one he has with MT's now. Staff is very nice, but tend not to respond to technical issues which is why I no longer work for them. Good luck!!

Dictaphone ExText avg pay?
I'm wondering what anyone averages using this platform?  Just started using it, does not seem as fast as straight typing.
ExText with Dictaphone
question - Many times after entering a document using ExText, I realized I had to leave the computer for a few minutes. I closed out of the ExText document and usually even exit out of VPN Client. Even if it's 30 minutes later, when I return to work, that same document is still sitting there. I process it then and that's fine for me, but it makes me wonder why the documents don't rotate. It seems that it slows time down that they are processed because they just sit there for a long time.

Anyone have any idea why the specific jobs sits there? Does that mean no one else is working so it stays at my computer, or does it mean the document is stuck? How to unstick it? Has that happened to any of you? Your thoughts please. Seems to really slow down turnaround time for the client.

Anyone worked on DQS and Dictaphone EXtext?

I need to make a decision of which job to take...the DQS acct wants 5000 a pay period (part time) and the EXtext 7000.   I'm wondering if it would be easier to make lines on the EXtext than the DQS since I've read a lot of people have trouble making lines on DQS.  They are both 65 character lines.  Thanks.


Who uses Dictaphone EXText besides OSi and Amphion?

Dictaphone ExText is my favorite too. nm

ExText (Dictaphone) is platform..
I've never used Extext before, so I'm learning. I really like it so far. It's been easy to learn.
Are there any companies who do not use Dictaphone ExText?....sm

Every company I apply to seem to be using ExText.  I am tired of fighting for lines on ExText, but not sure that anyone else is using an MT-friendly platform.  I am not interested though in Diskriter, Transolutions or Spheris, so if anyone knows of a company other than those three please let me know.  Thanks. 


Does Transolutions use Dictaphone Extext?

I need information about Dictaphone Extext

I am disgusted with my current employer and want to quit but I really like Extext.  Can someone please tell me what MTSOs use Extext?  I just think it would be easier transition for me. 



 


 


Can answer some. Dictaphone ExText. (sm)
The lines are relatively good, ExText isn't as quick to use as DQS though. Work seems steady, all the accounts I have run into are peachy. I think I was told at one time there were only around 200 MTs, but don't quote me on that. They are growing, but from what I am told they have absolutely no aspirations of becoming a squid.

The people in the office are EXTREMELY nice. I took a cut in line rate to go there and I feel like I bought myself peace of mind with it.
TransTech uses Dictaphone Extext

What companies use Dictaphone ExText? (sm)

Am actually just looking for PT, don't care if it is employee or IC.



TIA


Any company that uses Dictaphone Extext

If this is a dictaphone Extext account....
I think it has to be a USB port in the BACK of the computer, and it has to be the certain pedal with a phone jack end that plugs in to the special dictaphone little square box...

I hope that helps
