What is a C-phone? How is re-recording over the telephone done?
A. A C-phone is a digital receiver transcriber/phone that accesses digital dictation from another location over the phone. Re-recording involves using a tape recorder or transcriber with recording capabilities, a speaker telephone, and an inexpensive phone coupler (such as those made by Radio Shack, http://www.radioshack.com , or Skutch T-21P Phone Coupler, http://home.inreach.com/skutch/, 916, 786-6186). One method of re-recording involves using the telephone to dial into a hospital’s digital dictation system and playing the doctors’ dictations while recording them for transcription at a later time.
