Description

Saving Keystrokes will help medical transcriptionists maximize their speed, productivity, and profits by effective use of software programs called abbreviation expanders, speedtyping software, and word completion software. Written by a medical transcriptionist, this one-of-a-kind reference shows how to create expanders and macros for use with this software. The book teaches easy-to-learn techniques for developing accurate expanders and expander lists for nearly everything you type. Included are specific expander techniques for capitalization, punctuation, symbols, headings, drugs, numbers, and phrases for handling predictable and not-so-predictable dictators and other chart details. Practice and test sections are integrated throughout the book.
