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?


I work on Docuscribe (not MQ) and have also worked on Chartscript in the past. My line counts went
down significantly when I went to the DQS platform.  Don't know if it is being manipulated or not, just simply stating the facts as I have seen them.
I can't tell you exactly for single, but I was quoted
a range from $134 pp to $245 depending on which plan you choose for E+child. I would think it would likely be about half that for Employee alone. But that is just a guess. HTH some.
I got paid less than what I was quoted
I already did not like the direction my -previously wonderful- company was going in and had another part time job lined up, however when I saw on my pay stub 1/2 cent per line less than what I had been promised I walked out and did not look back. Took a full time job with my new company. No love lost here.
OK. Here is what you said inside. Direct quoted post
from above.

In Reply to: I know the owner was interviewing for the trainer - MT trainer

that's the point. no one got it. they ended up saying that the owner was too busy to do any hiring. I interviewed for it too. 2 weeks of my time for nothing.



Holy Smokes! That is high. That is what I was quoted for private ins.

What companies use ChartScript and ChartScript.net?

3M = SoftMed = ChartScript = ChartScript.Net
SoftMed was purchased by 3M in 2007. Both products ChartScript and ChartScript.Net are still available. Both have internal text Expanders that work well
OSi pays on time every time exactly what was quoted on job offer.
Someone is getting really confused here. OSi does pay on time. Pay has always been in accordance to my time sheet that I fill out. If OSi pays only if their accounts pay them, then I must be on one good account that always pays. This is not in any fine print of any papers I have received.
A line is a line is a line. Doesn't matter if we are talking about radiology or acute care.

1600 is not a fair minimum requirement.  Sure you can achieve 1600, it shouldn't be the required minimum.


ChartScript
Any opinions on ChartScript platform -- how is it to work on?  Am considering job offer.  Thanks.
RE: ChartScript
Work with it every day at the hospital that employs me. Great program. Word based, choose admission date/work type from drop-down menu, click on correct information, begin transcribing. Piece of cake.
ChartScript?

Can anyone tell me anything about chartscript?  I am wondering if the program is user friendly, etc.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!


p.s.  Have a good holiday weekend!


CHARTSCRIPT
I was wondering if anyone knows what companies use Chartscript for their platform....I have used it before while working inhouse and liked just wondering.

Thanks!!
ChartScript or ChartScript.net
ChartScript is SoftMed's Word based transcription application, requires an install on your PC.  ChartScript is awesome, user friendly, easy to learn.  ChartScript.net is SoftMed's browser based application, does not use Word and is awful.  Hope that helps.
ChartScript
Worried..the hospital where I work uses ChartScript. I like it pretty well. We use it with WinScribe. Hope this helps.
ChartScript
Yes, ChartScript is great. Works really well.
Chartscript
Anyone know of a company who uses Softmed (Chartscript) as its platform?
ChartScript
I now work for a company called E-mtsonline.  They are based out of Coral Gables, Florida and great to work for.  They used to be MRC before Medquist bought them out 8-10 years ago.  Hope this helps.  Also, they have tons of accounts and work. Great benefits and PTO.
ChartScript
All I saw was 65 character lines.  It seems to not count whole reports.
ChartScript

Headers, etc. probably are not counted since they don't pay for weekends or holidays either.    


Chartscript

Can anyone out there give me a comparison of Chartscript as compared to Meditech, Dictaphone Extext, or DocQScribe in terms of productivity? 


I realize this depends on the MT but would really appreciate some input.


chartscript
Your fingers will get used to the log in process quickly and it will become automatic and no problem. At least it did for me.
ChartScript

I have used ChartScript over five years. It is wonderful to work with. There are built-in Expanders and you can create your own. You can also set up your own normals. It is very user friendly. The demographics are easily entered. You can easily verify your line count.  I have not used any other platform so I can't make any comparisons but I love CS.



chartscript
Chartscript was a wonderful platform, too bad the company that has it (SPi) sucks!
Chartscript
I just took on a new account that uses Chartscript. I have never used this platform before. It is a good, stable platform that is easy to use? I have worked mostly in ExText and have never even seen Chartscript before. I just want to be prepared. Thanks!

Looking to work with ChartScript.  Anybody?


Chartscript.com sm

Chartscript.com.... the good, the bad, the ugly...?  Any information greatly appreciated


chartscript

In 15 years I've used a boatload of transcription platforms:  MTS, MedRite, DoQscibe, Chartnet and now MS Word, but I have never used BayScribe.  I detested DoQscribe. ChartNet was a joy to switch to when I switched jobs. I worked with ChartNet for about 18 months (then my employer sent all its work to  the Philippines and dumped the US personnel - but that's another story). 


I found ChartNet a very user-friendly platform.  It is easy to modify expansions, to back them up and restore then from a floppy disk, something no technical person could help me accomplish with DoQscribe.  One feature of ChartNet I miss every day is the way I could highlight a term and jump right to Google to look it up.  What a timesaver!  Also, I was able to look up not only my own past reports, but the work of other MTs, and do it by dictator, so that I could figure out unclear dictation from the way others had interpreted it.  Really good system.  I think you'll like it. 


chartscript
Well, duh!  Just realized you were NOT asking about Chartnet but Chartscript.  Is my face red!  I should be sleeping, not messing around online at this hour.  In the words of SNL's Emily Litella:  Never Miiiind!
Chartscript
Depends on what acct you're on.  Which will you be going on?
chartscript
Does anybody know any companies who use Chartscript? Also, do I have to check with who I am working for as to whether I can use Instant Text with it? I worry it may affect things on their end and don't want to damage anything. TIA.
ChartScript
I believe Diskwriter out of Pittsburgh still uses ChartScript as the UPMC Healthcare System in that area uses it also.  Hope this helps.  Belinda
I use ChartScript
but not with Keystrokes.  I am not sure about the medical spellchecker issue because we also use NetLinc and work in our own Word 2003 and I use that spellchecker.  However, the issue with things popping up that you do not type are things within ChartScript.  If, and you have to do this every time you log in to work, hit control W, it will not do this.
ChartScript
.... also, I like ChartScript a lot.
ChartScript
You are more than welcome to e-mail me any time, and hopefully I will have an answer for you.  It would be nice if they had a manual.  If I find out that they do, I will definitely let you know
TRS uses ChartScript
try this site http://www.transrs.com/default.asp
Chartscript is really MS Word
I have used Chartscript for several years. It is Word with a Chartscript toolbar. Allows auto faxing, can look up existing reports and VERY user friendly. It works with your own version of Word as far as auto text and auto correct. Shorthand word Expander works with it very well also.
which companies use ChartScript?
nm
Diskriter has some Chartscript

ChartScript program
Is anyone familiar with this program and the line counter?  I'm pretty sure some or a lot  of my lines are not being counted. 
Any positives out there on Chartscript....

Another Chartscript question -
Can somebody who has used this program tell me if they were paid for the weighted lines or just the lines amount?  I'm being paid for lines only and that's why I'm asking. 
Archivus and MRC use ChartScript, or they did. nm

How is Chartscript to work on? sm

Hi,


Wondering how chartscript is to work on? easy to get lines or cumbersome?


 


one of my accounts is with chartscript..sm
and it is nothing like Escription. I guess every account is different, because my company is going to an online platform within the next two weeks, and chartscript will be able to be used within it. At the present time, however, we do have to download files via an FTP, which is very similar to VPN, have a separate digital voice player, type the files into the chartscript format, save the files, and send back via FTP. You won't need to look up any patient demographics. Most of the info is already provided on the chartscript format. All I have to enter is the patient name, MR#, and job number. Everything else is preloaded. It is fairly easy to manuever through. I do not mind the format.

I just need to say though, that if you need to use a VPN and separate digital voice player, then it is the company that does not have an online platform to support it. Like I said, we will be using it online within the next two weeks. so it isn't the chartscript that is the problem.

I wish you luck.
PS: Setting up the VPN is a little difficult. You have to follow the instructions given to you very carefully. Basically you are opening a direct link between your computer and theirs. Once it is set up, it is easy to use.
I use ChartScript and it is very simple. The only
demographics I fill in are ptient's name and doctor's ID # if there are any CC. 
They use Chartscript and DVI to download
work.  You can work in Word or WP5.1, at least for now. 
SoftMed...as in ChartScript??
I despise ChartScript!
Keystrokes/Chartscript.net
Could someone else using Chartscript.net for Keystrokes let me know if they feel their line count is accurate?  I do my own line counts and these are usually so much less than what is shown in Chartscript.net?  Would appreciate any info on how they calculate (characters, carriage returns counted, etc.?)
