You might just ask them what software they use, too, for future reference. Good luck!

Abacus Line Counting Software sm

has a free trial and only $38 to buy -- much less than other line counting programs!


I think it only works with Word though.


 


 


eClinical software - anyone familiar with this?
I work from my home office. I had a doc call today and say he needs an MT, but his office uses a software program called eClinical, so he thought it would have to be done onsite. He said the HPI is the only thing that is really transcribed, that the review of systems, PE, etc., is just checking boxes, and then ICD-9 codes have to be entered for x-rays and such for it to be billed properly. Is anyone familiar with eClinical? Is there any way to access it remotely? How would I even bill for this if the HPI is the only part transcribed and the rest is checking boxes/data entry? I really don't want to go and work onsite. I'm just bummed because he's the first potential client of my own, and instead of being technologically challenged like so many docs and still using tapes, he's technologically advanced! If anybody has any info on this software program, I would really appreciate your input!

Yeah, you're right. Who cares who licenses your software? Heck, I use all pirated software anyw

why pay for anything, right?


Except that is AGAINST THE LAW!!!


A friend of mine got one and she is finding that some of her software, specifically her ISP software

If u need server software, try guild ftp. If just user software
then try cuteftp, coffeecupftp, or wsftp. They don't charge a line rate and I believe guildftp server software is still free.
try Abacus
It's also free.
abacus
works well and also does daily counts, invoicing too!
I believe Abacus?

abacus
Thanks.  Does it count "differently" than Word?  What is the web site, abacus.com?  I will try it.
Can anyone help me with Abacus? SM
I'm trying to use it for the first time.  I opened the program and see the drives listed at the upper left.  However, I need to get into My Documents and go from there, and it's not listed there.  I have A, C, D, and E drives.  Even if I click on C, I don't get a choice of My Documents.  Has this ever happened to anyone else?  What am I missing here? 
Try Abacus..
It gives you a free trial version, so you can see if you like it.. Not sure of the website, just search abacus line counter.
abacus

thank you...I really like the program and did not want to change it.

I use Abacus. sm

Abacus comes with a free trial and costs around $20. It is customizable, counts in batches and I have found it to be a great tool. I consider a line to be 65 characters with spaces, including tabs, returns and header/footers. I do not count formatting or caps. Hope this helps.


Abacus
Anyone know if there is a free trial period on this software?  Thanks.
I also use Abacus (about $20).
In PA I am required to charge sales tax and I can't add that in Abacus, but I do use it to create the line counts that I then transfer to Quicken for invoicing.

I use Abacus and love it. Free too! nm

I used Abacus at the advice of who I work for once--sm
and yes, it is free, but it consistently counted less lines than I get with other line counter software. It would not count the headers, either. Depending upon the file it was counting, I found it to count from 1 to 6 lines different from others. To me, that is too many variables. JMO
I have Abacus SE, brand new with disk. s/m
I paid $40 for it about two months ago. It is very user friendly and prints out invoices. I'll sell it for half price plus shipping if you are interested.
Abacus and Word 2003

Has anyone used Abacus with Word 2003 and does it work?  If not, any other nice line count programs out there that creat patient lists/invoices?

Does anyone use abacus with Word 2007? sm

I've used abacus 2.1 for years. Now I have Vista with Word '07 and I was told that 2.1 and 3.0 would work, but either would be hard to configure. I'm not sure what that really means and would like to hear from anyone who is using it about problems or advice.


Abacus line counting

I have downloaded the Abacus SE program and cannot figure out how this program works.  If anyone is willing to walk me through the steps of this process I would appreciate it.  Information would be 9 cpl at 65 character line.


Thank you, JNGI


Abacus line counting

Thanks!  Emailed you.


I use a program called The Abacus.

You can download abacus free. You just have
to delete this line that says: Buy me so you can get rid of this annoying line (or something like that). It counts your lines for you and then creates an invoice. Looks professional. Hope this helps.
I downloaded Abacus. doggone if sm
I can figure out how to use it! That is what happens when you work for a one company forever and ever. Don't keep up on the other stuff. I did see the counter on Word so I guess I will have to wait and see how they do things.

Some companies don't explain things very well.
Abacus has a line counting program and you
can download a free trial version of it. Don't have the website, but I think a Google search would help you find it.
Use Abacus. You can download for free. Very accurate. nm

Abacus Line Counting Program
I've been using this for about a year.  It used to count subdirectories.  I thought all I had to do was check "add subdirectory files to listbox."  Now it's not working.  Am I forgetting something? 
Exactly! Because you got familiar with VR....
It is difficult to switch from stRaight to editing, Back an forth, back and forth, this is so TRUE!

And all the various accounts with the different clients' specifics.
Love my Abacus too! Awesome free program! nm

I've had problems with Abacus' accuracy in the past.

I use Abacus; however, it is an older version. Don't know if it has been upgraded. It is free.

I use Abacus and send by email/WinZip encrypted. nm

Not familiar with a dropdown box . . .
Are you referring to F9 to get line count?
If you are familiar with this forum at all
then you should have enough insight to realize that posting such vague information without any shred of credibility will get you a less-than-desired response.

Either way, even if it IS true - what kind of friend shares such an important secret? What kind of employee leaks information?

Hmm...sounds familiar sm
Is this company out of Texas, perhaps. 
Sounds familiar.
Feast or famine.
sounds familiar
I'm drowning in paper. I have piles everywhere, including my bedroom floor and dresser. I used to be very organized and couldn't stand clutter, I don't know what happened. I live with three other "messies", husband and two of three children. I think I just gave up. I usually can find things, but it bugs me a lot. Can't seem to get myself to clean it up. This has a psychological basis I'm sure. I'm not lazy, otherwise I keep a really neat, clean house. Stressed out maybe the reason, just don't know where to start first when I do have some time to myself. It's always something.
sounds so familiar!!
I guess most office atmospheres are like that...it sounds so similar to what I had worked with until I went home...and boy am I glad I did!!! I am a social person, but absolutely do not miss the office crud!!! Now I have been doing home repairs and "fixing" up my new "office" as well as getting out a couple of nights a week. Also spending more time focusing on my needs, i.e. pampering myself more!
