Jacques,
Have you contacted Freedom Scientific about this question? This might be a
good place to start since they may know of a program that works well or even
one that will not. The bigger issue is going to be what do employers use or
if you are going to set up your own practice, what format you will be able
to get material in for transcription and which formats are required by
doctors. It won't help you at all if the program works with Jaws but is not
compatible with your market. Now that medical records are moving to digital
files, compatibility is very important. If you plan to make paper copies, I
suspect you are looking at a dead end career with a somewhat short lifespan.
Some documents will always need paper copies but even then, doctors will
want that digital file for the patient record.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] what is the name of an accessible and
compatiblemedical transcription computer program with jaws
Hello listers,
I am looking for an accessible medical transcription computer program that
can be used with jaws; does anyone know of such a program. Maybe someone out
there knows a blind medical transcriber and could find out for me what
accessible medical trascription computer program they are using and with
which jaws program. Perhaps, someone could then relay me the information.
That would be great.
I would need this info if I am going to possibly pursue a career in medical
transcription.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Take care,
Jacques
