In collecting UE after quitting MQ due to working conditions (NJA and other issues)? Please share if you have, the amount, the length, and what you had to produce to get things rolling. I have a collection of NJAs and emails begging for work and a gradually declining paycheck to produce if needed. Thanks in advance.

Am still employed, but NJA for 4 days my last pay period which has never happened before. I went down to UE, explained my situation and spoke with the person who deals with partial separation. No problem. Compensation up to $500 per week if hours and salary less than contracted. I did not have to produce any documentation. Good luck.

Just like that? Gives me some hope here. I thought there would be ropes and hoops. Just in case i've documented pretty much everything. Thank you for the reply.

Im not sure if I am posting to the right board about this and I dont know anything about VR, but I am just wondering if anyone has lost their job to a doctor who has decided to go to VR and you subsequently got your job back because the VR sucked? My doc has talked to me about how in the future he wants to go to VR, but I told him I dont see that happening....not with him anyway. He gets very distracted, repeats things, says "no change that", etc. He may laugh or talk to the patient or ot ...

I have read here that people would like to know when someone has been successful with a TAA claim. I have been 100% successful and am enrolled in school. I receive UI benefits. My school is 100% paid for. All of my books are paid for. I am given a supplies allowance per semester. I filed a claim, I was denied, I appealed, I won on appeal. The state of Colorado appealed again and their appeal was denied. There is a lot of paperwork to do, but that can only be filled out one sheet ...

I know there are many who are opposed to VR, but I would like to hear from those successful at it and enjoy it. I need some tips. I have to do this, and I want to get good at it no matter what. My account is fairly easy. There are some problem dictators who should not be on there though, and this keeps my line count down to 250-300 most days. Today, they were not on there and I edited 400 LPH!! However, my hands are really hurting. I am having trouble feeling ...

The "When You Aren't Around" part is just to get your attention. I know that many of you are also successful MTs. There are many others who believe they are and will argue until the cows come home to convince us that they are, when they aren't. Most successful MTs have seen the ones I'm talking about. I've been a successful MT for years. Throughout the years I've known a lot of MTs, some managing to get jobs and somehow keep them because of connections or friendships, o ...

I have avoided it so far, but due to taking on a second job, I may need to take an hour here or there. Has it worked for anyone when you are just looking for an hour or 2 at a time? ...

I am a potential MT, and I was researching this field and came across an ebook called The Successful Medical Transcriptionist. It's by a lady named Shelley Wipper, she claims to have been an MT for 12 years and made a successful living doing it, and the book is supposed to give Step-by-Step insight in how to succeed in the industry. I just wanted to know if anyone the industry has in fact heard of her and her $50 ebook, or is her website thesuccessfulmedicaltranscriptionist.com just a scam. ...

I'm thinking about getting certified in this area. Mostly considering coding as that has the smallest contact with patients and I get to work independently. I had some schooling about 20 years ago for coding, have been a transcriptionist 16 years, plus QA specialist and editor. I just want short-term schooling. I have hesitated going into this field because I am afraid it will go overseas, and that no one will give new hires a chance. I know one gal who went to school for it and gave ...
