Choosing an online MT course

I have completed the medical transcription course with an excellent grade. I am asked to either choose a letter of completion from them, at no cost or a certificate from a list of colleges (with a nominal fee, I do not mind paying). I need suggestions please. Thanks! ...

Hello, I have been thoroughly researching schools and it has been an interesting path. First, I was looking at Career Step, but became nervous that there are apparently a good deal of unhappy people who took the course and regretted it. Then I looked at M-Tec. They provide no info about MT on their website, so I emailed them. Turns out they are not accepting students until the spring and I was informed to check back then. When I asked when in the spring, they could not give an answer. The ...

I've been working for these people for 7 months as a full-time employee. I have recently changed careers in the medical field and the administrator knows this and he knows i am searching for a job in my new career, which he supported me in. It's time to order uniforms for the office staff (they provide 4 sets) and he tells me he wants me to write a letter stating that I am not leaving or searching for another job before he orders my uniforms because he does not want to pay ...

i have a question for working mt's. i have decided that i want to get into the mt field and try to work from home if at all possible, while raising a family. i was going to look into doing an online course and i'm just not sure which "school" would be a good choice. it seems that its so hard to find out which school is actually legit. i know there are some schools that are supported by the adhi and accp. and im not sure if "at home" jobs are actually obtainable to ...

of any good online education for this alone? I see AHIMA has one. I am looking for others. AHIMA's online courses don't suit me. I suppose it would look good on a resume, but I want to LEARN it well. So if anyone has come across a good online course in ICD-10-PCS, please post. Thank you! ...

Here's something that might be useful to you all who have library cards with your own local library. I'm not sure if all libraries are connected to netlibrary.com, but mine is. Here's the thing: http://www.netlibrary.com I went there and signed up by using my local library card. There are a ton of books, in both ebook (pdf) format as well as available for audio download (free). You can search by subject, author, etc., For instance, when I put "start a business ...

I was able to get onto the web site but I don't see anything there that indicates enrollment for this new UnitedHealthcare MS MRA insurance. All of my existing elections are there, but no place can I find anything regarding open enrollment. Have any of you guys been able to find it? If so, please let me know. I tried calling the "benefits" number on Friday, but I got a recording that there were closed for the holiday...LOL. Not me....I had to work all ...

I just had to vent! I am SICK AND TIRED of companies (mostly hospitals) with these l-o-n-g applications asking you to document your whole life history. These are several pages long, and many times you are restricted to ANSWERS IN BOXES (drop-down menus) so can't enter free text. Finally, there is NO WAY TO SAVE IT! So you can get half or most of the way through and have to stop/pause and/or get stuck because of the dang drop-down stuff, when you can resume you h ...

I'm just wondering if anyone has taken the new online CMT exam via webcam. Did you have any technical problems or did everything run smoothly? Thanks for the info. BTW, I already know how many of you feel re the CMT exam, so really just an answer to my question would be appreciated. Thanks. ...

I am wondering if a nationally accrediting school is better then just a regular accredited schooling?? Thanks ...

assuming I already have a BA, does anyone think this would be a good alternative career choice to MT? ...

Anyone ever test on one the MTTEST online testing sites, knew that you answered all of the questions correct on the multiple choice and fill in the blanks section, only to be told that you failed the test? It would be one thing if you did not know the answers, but when you know the answers because it is general medical transcription knowledge that is dealt with on a day-to-day basis throughout your job, and be told the answers were wrong? Something is wrong with this pictur ...

ICD-10 course rather than be required to stay with them for 2 additional years after the apprenticeship, working whatever shift they feel like sticking you with? I feel like the difference in the amount of money you'd be making in those 2 years with them versus anywhere else would more than pay for an online course. I'm not seeing the draw to this. ...

I have always worked for a hospital in my area and would like to relocate to Florida so was thinking of going with an online service and am looking for some input as to the best services to apply to and the ones to stay away from.

I do have a history of 10 years work in radiology but have been out of the field for about 6 years and now am basically starting over since I am not a CMT.

I'm seriously considering enrolling at one of the "top two" MT online schools. I'm good at English grammar, spelling, type over 100 wpm with 98% accuracy, a perfectionist, and am also very focused. I do have a full-time job, but can easily devote evenings and time on the weekends to complete the course. I'm up for a challenge, but after doing quite a bit of research, this sounds really difficult. Feedback please! ...

O.K. I'm a "senior" woman...(been 29 for years till my daughter became 30...brat) retraining in MT/Coding/Billing after lay-offs in IT. I'm finding significant gaps in my online training and I'm getting worried because I see all the job postings "must have 3 years, 2+ etc. experience" and wonder if: a) I'll be able to get a job b) have the requisite training due to gaps in coverage at my online school. I've got a million questions. I did great in terminology (98% avg) an ...

I finally got my study material for my administrative assistant course, but according to what I've read so far I may need to learn shorthand. Transcribing my own scrawl is going to be a big step up from transcribing some of the dictators I've listened to, and I gotta say one good thing for my MT career, I don't need to worry about passing the keyboarding section. Anyone know where I can find a good online course for learning shorthand, that isn't too expensive? T ...

I have found at least 5 dozen on line colleges for medical coding and I can find Pros and Cons for all. Just wondering if there were any students here currently utilizing on line colleges or programs for medical coding, or if anyone has any experiencing completing one. Thanks! ...

How does one know which online coding program to take when they all seem pretty good, besides the price difference? I specifically want to know about AHIMA or Career Step from someone who has graduated and found a job. I know they have testimonials on their website, but how does one really know? I was thinking about either their program or the one from AHIMA, which seems a lot longer, but apparently with either you will be able to sit for the credentialing exam, and they seem to be close in ...

I am considering becoming a MT and have been researching some online MT courses. I am considering Career Step & Med Tech but I bump into another MT online school called Med Workshops **** that offers mentoring internship and will only take your enrollment if they have a job that they can offer you after the course. Sounds too good to be true especially when the course takes anywhere from 6 months to a year. I have been searching around trying to find any kind ...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone here is going back to school for something else, but taking classes online.

Thanks ...

I have been offered a position with eMTS online and am wondering if anyone has any experience with them. The only posts I have read were good, but they are very old posts. ...

I'm new to this board so bear with me. Having been a MT forever it seems, I'm thinking of making a switch to coding. At one point I was even hired as an entry level coder, learning on the job, but when i position came open in transcription took that as it paid better. In hindsight wish I had stuck with the coding as then could have gone either or even both ways. My problem would be having to actually "go" to a school in person , but i would want something reputable, not som ...

After 28 years of medical billing I am ready for a change. I've been researching online coding courses but there are so many! I would be interested in any feedback you have on which courses you took and the pros and cons of each. Thank you for your input. ...

I am trying to apply at Globespan but when I try to download my resume onto the online application I keep getting an error message. You are supposed to download it in Word or pdf format. I thought I was downloading it in Word, but it doesn't seem to work. Does anyone out there know what would cause this not to work? I really need some help with this since I am really anxious to apply for the opening. Please help if you can. Thank you so much. ...
