I usually don't get involved in these threads, but I'll go ahead and give it a try for once:
You're trying to battle the Information Revolution, immediate business profiteering, AND the need to provide needed medical services in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.
It's NOT going to work any more than denying the Industrial Revolution (or the Agricultural or Iron Ages) did for those who tried then, and yes, plenty did--long dead now, names not recorded.
Sorry, but best advice is accept inevitable change and invest your time and energy in changing with it. These are fascinating and exciting times. Enjoy!

Blowing nose, sniffing, hacking, spitting,,yuk!
I transcribed a doc and I swear he was sick all the time. Really gross.
No, Priscilla Presley after face work, is the spitting image of the Joker.

I hear ya on that one!! I know that if I ever wind up in this hospital
I will get a copy of my medical records and sue the pants off of the hospital for incompetency in care and it will fall back on the outsource transcription company because of their mistakes. I know I can sue the doctor individually, but he didn't make the mistakes that could have killed me - the transcription service would be making the mistakes!! $$$
Tips for getting a second wind on third shift
I work a split shift, and the second part goes to 2 a.m. At about 11 p.m. or midnight, I hit the wall and I find that coffee or cola no longer works so well. I was wondering if anyone could please share some tips to stay alert. I need to learn how to get a second wind, but I also don't want to take so long a break that I am too tired to get back to work again... at that hour of the morning (after midnight), that would be really bad. 2 a.m. can be done, I just need and would so appreciate tips. Thanks for your help. Until then, I am going now to make coffee, though I am not sure how much that and the sugar in it will help right now!. Thanks again for your input.
Havre, Montana, right now 17 below 0, wind chill is 37 below 0.
Now that is a bit nippy.

Lots of wind, rain from Alberto -
The year went by F-A-S-T! Getting lots of bad weather from Alberto. My satellite is going in and out - no internet, no work. Think I'll take a nap!!
I feel bad for the people in Colorado and Wyoming who had so much wind and cold
weather. This would be worse than a hurricane because if your roof blows off, you are in severe sub-0 temperatures with blowing snow. No way to get any kind of help, and no way to stay warm.
Tough question, I love so may, Definitely Gone with the wind, can I count the 6 Star wars as one?

This doc keeps blowing wind/nose hairs/boogers out his nose - into the microsphone - and
sounds cool, huh?
I am physically nauseated! 3 hours of this.  gag
Add to that he can't say *our* alphabet so even though the hospital THINKS the docs are spelling the names, he wasted his time and mine. and when I get it wrong -- until I get the hospital to listen --- they will think I'm the *blank* one. (the board stopped me from posting/ said stup*d is not allowed here so you know what I'm saying - isn't that odd, I can't refer to my own self as that, hmmm)
He can't say NUMBERS. Getting the drug doses is a joke. Even the names of the drugs is like mystery science.
He says wrong months, days of the week. If he's meaning to say May, he may say April.
If he's meaning to say 17 he may say 15.
You can hear the disdain in his voice when he dictates on women - I guess in his world there truly is no respect for women and you can really hear it when he's doing the dictation.
But the constant blowing - and clearing his throat - trying to dislodge that tickling nose hair I guess and slurping that yucky saliva has me just about ready to quit transcribing RIGHT NOW. . 
Today I did make myself a promise. I have been a good girl for 30+ years, held my anger deep in my ugly Wal-Mart pocketbooks. When I retire in January and I know I will never have to turn on another computer or transcribe another medical dictation............I'm gonna go to the hospital ......maybe go sit in on GRAND ROUNDS FOR THE LAST TIME.......and BLAST THEM. I'll do it or bust a gasket. Just watch me.

If it rains hard, the wind blows hard and there are trees
nearby, it snows heavily it will mess up the signal. The speed is not constant, sometimes as slow as dial-up, but at least still connected. Many companies will not allow satellite.
