and listening to dictation, yes, it should be paid and she as an IC should set the amount she should be paid.
I pick-up and deliver, and that's in my line charge. I also do that at my convenience, not theirs. A real office is fine with that and understands the meaning of IC. Lisa is a vendor like any other contractor.
If I had to sit and listen and sort patient lists, etc. and spend more than 5-10 minutes tops at an office, then I would charge for that time spent at that office sorting through their mess.
Let's face it. The office is a mess and Lisa is their scape goat. Since now they know she's bending over backwards, they will take advantage.
Again, Lisa should not spend her time sorting out their mess. Furthermore, if they can't figure out what to give her and "don't have time", then Lisa's response should be that she doesn't have the time either unless she charges them for that time.
It just sounds like a real mess of a deal. I can't wait to hear if they actually pay her at all!
Okay, I'll shut up now! Just the fact that she's posting again is hysterical. I guess I'll keep my mouth shut after saying from the last thread regarding this "I told ya'' so."
You all thought "oh just this one time." Why do you think the other girl quit? Hello? Can you say doormat? |
