I recently left a hospital job 6 months ago because of climbing gas prices and started working for a MTSO. After the six months, I cannot seem to get the correct line count to be eligable for benefits and I need benefits. I can work for hours and it is like my line count barely moves. I worked the same way at the hospital and made twice as much so I know I can do it but for some reason with this MTSO I cannot seem to make it move. I thought I would try another MTSO. I applied and they offered me a job and as soon as I got my new hire paperwork in they would ship me my foot pedal and what I need to get started. Well, the next day after talking to that recruiter, I noticed an ad in the paper from a local hospital, just a block away, stating they wanted a medical records clerk, FT with benefits. I jumped up and applied. They called me in for an interviewed today and told me what the job entails, which has nothing to do with MT, gave me a tour of the hospital and they said will call me Thursday with their decision. Oh best part is no weekends or holidays.
What I am wondering is should I go ahead and fax that new hire paper work as if I don't have that hospital job or should I wait. I told the MTSO I would have it in today and I would hate for them to go through the expense to send my stuff for me to send it back if I did get that job, but on the other hand I don't want to keep them waiting. Also, I am not sure yet as for what the salary would be with the hospital as when I asked they said they would let me know by Thursday. I have 2 in daycare so the job would have to cover that and I am not sure if it will.
They are transitioning to EMR. They have paper MR now and they are trying to get ready for EMR and they need help filing. I have a feeling I would be walking in on a mess. I think the MTs still use tapes. |
