Phone In Dictation
The phone in dictation service is mainly for the benefit of firms and individuals who do not have any dictating equipment. From a telephone you dial a freephone number, enter your user ID and a password (if you entered one), then record your dictation. The telephone keypad has all the functions of a digital recorder, see below.
FINGERTIPS PHONE IN DICTATION SYSTEM ACCESS INSTRUCTIONS
The telephone number will be provided to you upon signing up.
When you dial into the system, you will need to enter the following:
- You will first be asked to enter your ID followed by #.
- If this is your first use, you will be prompted to say your name and record a password. These prompts are used to ensure that you are connecting as the correct user in the future.
- Next, you will be asked to enter a work type which means setting the priority. If you do not enter a work type we will assume 24 hour turnaround.
- You will then be asked to enter a Patient chart number. Ignore this by pressing #.
- Begin recording after the tone.
